Lost in DeepL translation perhaps.

I could use a third column in Narrow view just for the Author's Bio. Is this doable, currently?
I don't understand why anyone would want Author Notes to be displayed in Book Details… other than 'just because'. What do you do for books that have multiple authors.

The 'detached' book details panels can show a different set of columns to the 'embedded' book details panel. They are keyboard focus aware non-modal dialogue boxes, one 'locks' onto the currently selected book, while the other one follows the book list.

Keyboard focus aware means you can tab through the column values (current gets a dotted box) and hit enter… e.g. Tab to the Publisher value and press Enter will do a search for that Publisher. If you Tab to a Link or Note icon the URL or Note will spring to life… see attached image.

And being non-modal means you can give focus to the main window and start a Conversion, check a Tweak, or edit some metadata and the book details panel will stay where it is… perhaps on a different monitor.
