unabatedshagie · 06-14-2017, 10:17 AM

I have some text I add to a person column so I can easily filter books based on if they are for me, my wife or my son.

Currently I have to edit the metadata, switch to the custom tab, start typing the name and then select the name before saving.

I'd like to be able to select a bunch of books then click CTRL + {letter of my choice} to automatically set the text in that column.

Is this possible?
