Double-click to Edit Metadata
Hi all,
I changed my old mac, on which I had customized Calibre so that in the Browsing window, when I double-clicked on the title of a book, the Metadata Editing window would open instead of the Book Viewer. But I can no longer trace where this behaviour can be customized. Can anyone tell me how to do it?

Thanks!
- Marco.

What was wrong with the solution given by the creator of calibre in Post #2?

AFAIK there's no alternative solution.
