Book details unavailable as columns
When editing the settings for book details, there's some additional entries that don't appear as part of the default columns, like formats and id.
Due to the names already being 'taken', I have to use slightly awkward custom column names like File Formats and Calibre ID to display in book list. Why exactly is this? Last edited by ownedbycats; 04-22-2023 at 05:17 PM. |

Yes, in the book details. But not as columns in the book list. I was wondering the reasoning for this.

Now I have a #book_row/Book # virtual column (template {id}) in all my libraries. To prevent me F2-ing into the template editor I flip the 'editable' BOOL in the database column definitions…. ![]() I'll let @chaley speak to the formats column. I will note that a record of what formats 'should' exist for each book is kept in the library database 'data' table Ψ³ IIRC this is the source of the approximate_formats() template function. BR |

In my case, I sometimes modify the date/timestamp column. When adding older files, mostly. In this case I sort by Calibre ID to know the actual order I added the books.
