I have a couple of Calibre libraries, and I created a common custom columns, one is named Retailer, lookup name #retailer, and CALM says it's activated on each library, and it picked it up from the various Calibre libraries. For the most part, one of the libraries contains all of the books, and one of the libraries only contains books purchased from a particular #retailer, and I've been going through the CALM library, and adding the #retailer value for the equivalent books in the other libraries, based on whether it's the same book as the one in the single retailer library. I then went to CALM Metadata Tools, selected custom column #retailer, and selected Replace Source Library CC with Target Library CC (All Sources and All Books), and clicked OK. When I checked the other libraries, all of them lost all the values for the custom column #retailer, except the library that only contains books purchased from the particular #retailer.

Is CALM still supported? Should this have worked, or am I misunderstanding what is supposed to happen with this metadata tool?
