Book List showing more than Selected Author

Larla · 08-13-2016, 04:32 PM

I'm not sure what happened -- i would select an author in the tag browser and the book list would display all books by that author.

Now when I select an author the book list displays all my books but the books by the selected author are displayed in green.

How do I go back to displaying only the books by the selected author?

See Search is showing all books with some highlighted! How do I fix this? and Some plugins can change calibre's search highlighting

Thanks chaley -- that did the trick.

When I went to Preferences, the "Highlight search results" box was not checked so I checked it and hit apply and then went back to Preferences and unchecked the box and hit apply and my book list was back to what I call normal.

Thanks again --

@Larla - there's an option to put a button on the search bar to toggle the Highlight search results setting, the button icon indicates its current state, it's 'documented' in chaley's second link.
