Hi,
I'm having some trouble with quickview and custom columns. When I double click on a column in the quickview table it should change the item in the left panel.

This is working fine for the built in columns like author and series. However when I double click on a custom column within the quickview it says "The column you double-clicked '#columnname', is not shown in the library view. The book/column cannot be selected by Quickview."

The custom column is visible in the main library view. I can click on the custom column in the library view and select it for quickview fine, just not within the quickview table itself.

This used to work, but I haven't used calibre in a while. I've updated windows and calibre in between and I'm wondering if something got corrupted somehow?
