In an earlier version of Calibre, I believe when you transferred a book to
a device, there was a check mark column to show that it was transferred.
I now have 0.8.21 version and can not fine this column. Is it just me or did that column disappear? Maybe I just don't know how to find or display this cloumn. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for any assistance

Perhaps you are thinking of the onDevice column that is ONLY shown while the device is connected, and will have ticks for books thatb are detected as being both in the Calibre library and on the device.

Calibre does not have knowledge of specific devices which is why this information is built dynamically when a device is plugged in.

If you want this to be persistent, then You could always create a custom column that is populated from the onDevice column. I think there ar already threads discussing this as a technique.
