Version 0.2.102
I am looking for people to test a new beta version.
Since it is a beta you should expect some issues to occur.
Also, for anyone running in debug mode, there is quite a lot of extra detail output
Most of the changes are relating to the search and especially the advanced search option.
Changes include
More details
Some searches produce more results than can be returned with one query. For example if you search for books by Agatha Christie, there may be several hundreds matches. In such cases, the search button changes to allow you to retrieve more pages. (See partial screenshot at the bottom of this message)
Please note, at the moment this only works when using the advanced search option.
Extra Columns
I have added two columns to the search screen to show series and wait times.
Series
If you sort by series, it should attempt to sort as best it can. It should cope with simple numbers as shown by the screenshot below
If you come across examples which are not sorted correctly or where the series is missing, please let me know.
Wait days
If you have multiple library cards, then this will show the smallest wait time .
If this is
n/a it probably means that none of your libraries have any copies of the book.
(I am not quite sure why such books should be returned by your library and it would probably make sense to hide them, but I haven't done that yet)
If you come across any books where this information is incorrect, please let me know.
The wait days has also been added to the submenu that displays when you place a book on hold. If you have multiple library cards, this allows you to select the library with the shortest wait time.
A column for Wait days has also been added to the loans tab.
Load/Save
These are really for debugging and may be be removed at the end of the beta.
These options allow you to save search results and reload them at a latter date, but obviously that can lead to stale and inaccurate data.
Create empty entry in calibre
This option has been added to the Holds & Search tabs
