Thanks
Just a suggestion - you can use the Editor outside of the Calibre GUI and file structure. Just put the starting copy in a project folder somewhere outside the Calibre library. Then point to it with your file manager, right-click and do an "open with" -- you should be able to open it with the Editor.

The advantage is you can call these "outside Calibre" versions anything you want, like MyBook v1.epub", then "Mybook v2.epub" and so on. Inside Calibre you can't so easily control versions, since Calibre is in charge of the file names.. To check the results of your edits, you can open them with the Viewer the same way, no need to drag every version into the GUI.
