So, I already feel like a total idiot after many hours. I know I am overlooking something very simple.

The only way I have found so far to set a rating for one or more books is to pull up the metadata on one or more books and set it through that GUI.

It seems like there should be something very simple, like a context menu item (or any menu item) to set rating in one click. What am I missing

I looked around for a Plug in, but didn't see anything.

----- Not Important

Also, there is some strange behavior in the Ratings that are imported, which is not a big deal since I seem to have a work around for how I assumed things would work

My Category for Rating (left) shows various numbers of already rated books from importing, however when I filter those ratings, the correct number of books show up, but the rating column shows nothing for those books. So, to destroy all the numbered Ratings in the Category section, I must first (bulk) set those books to that Rating, then re-select that group of books, and set to Not Rated.

That's not a big issue, but seems like some strange behavior.

Thanks for any input on the quick and easy way to set a rating on one or more books.

Awesome software, and I need to contribute to this. I will send some $$.
