But you aren't entering book metadata. Notes and links are metadata for the item values, i.e. meta-metadata. Editing meta-metadata doesn't belong in the book list.
That said, if the current cell in the book list is in a category then it makes sense for Manage categories to propose going directly to the items in that cell (associated with that book). Like this:
Attachment 204562
Selecting "2020-10-30" would opens category editor with that item selected, like this:
Attachment 204563 |
Doh, I assumed a ✔ in Manage Categories was a signal that a note for the item existed, for some explicable reason it didn't twig that I could tab to the cell and press F2 to enter/edit the item's note (just as I can for a link)
Suggestion: instead of presenting a list of category item values in the Manage categories drop down, could a checkbox option be added at the top of the Category editor (xxxxxx) dialogue — "Only show items for the selected book(s)". If multiple books is a bridge too far, make it 'selected book' and disable the option if multiple books are selected.
