Is this possible in Calibre? I'm running the latest version.
Best,

Libraries or Virtual Libraries
There is no 'Folders'
Calibre does not expect (or want) you poking under the skirts. Just too much chance of damage to the Data Structure (where-how Calibre shelves books is part of the Data as much as the DB part)
VL's can be displayed just like any other Search. The benefit: A VL frees up the Search tool (sorta a Search within a Search) non-Fiction (I
assume Fiction and don't waste the bytes, since that is what 98% of my Library is. General
We don't have no stinking Generals in my US NAVY
)
Hierarchical fields are better used for finer topic breakouts like Series cycles/branches (Per.Harper Hall) or tags sub-class (Science Fiction.Military)
