Calibre 4.6 Saved Search

gnewcomb · 12-27-2019, 10:13 PM

I have a large number of saved searches. Normally I can page down the searches and the columns refresh. Now however I can scroll past the last search displayed and the screen does not refresh. If I press enter the saved search runs and the results display on the main page. Have I changed a setting to cause this to happen ?

Thanks

Sorry I dont follow, are you saying the Tag browser does not show more than ascreneful of saved searches?

On the main screen of Calibre I select Saved Search, I can scroll off the screen but the columns don't refresh. I have attached a screen shot.

Thanks

Sounds like a Qt (the toolkit calibre uses) bug, with very long menus. You will have to wait for a fix in that. Can I ask why you seem to have a saved search for every author name? You can search by author by simply clicking the author name in the Tag browser panel onthe left.

I tend to remember plot and character better than the authors so my intent is to add a series name or tittle to the search header.

Thanks
