Hi all,
I am very very new to using Calibre beyond what it does freshly installed. I have the following put in the Save To Disk preference:
{author_sort}/{series:||/}{series} {series_index:re(^(\d)(\.|$),0\1\2)|| - }{title} - {authors:titlecase()}
It give me the Author's name (last, first), the book series (name - Series #) and then the book title. This works great EXCEPT on my Kindle (the new waterproof paperwhite - don't know the proper way to identify it) it doesn't seem to sort my books the way I think it should.
I have books in a series that are numbered:
1
2
2.5
3
3.1
3.2
and etc
On my Kindle I notice that it is putting the 2.5 book before the 2 and the 3.1 and 3.2 before the 3. I would like the series number to be saved like:
01.00
02.00
02.50
and etc.
I would like leading and trailing zeros in my series number. I am not sure how to do that. I thought it was doing it at one time...but not anymore.
Also on my metadata plugboard I have this in there:
{series}{series_index: re(^(\d)(\.|$),0\1\2)| #| – }{title}
Please help me make this work right. I am not looking to totally understand why it works. I have tried searching google, but either I am not searching using the right terms, or I am not understanding what I am finding.
Thanks in advance!
Lena
