Changing Cover when Adding New Format
I have an existing book with two formats (epub, mobi) and I'm adding a new one (azw3). I'd like to use the cover image from the new format as the cover instead of the existing one. Is there a way of doing this? (other than exploding the book and copying out the image, which will be my fall-back method)

Thanks

1 of the ways:
If you add the new format to the Formats box inside the Metadata editor for the existing book, select the format you want to get the cover from, Then click the brown book icon to the left.
