Display of existing formats

jwhitt12 · 08-24-2013, 06:56 PM

I used to be able to list the existing formats of books in my library. I have forgotten how I did that. Can anybody help me.

Thank you...........

Add a custom column; Preferences | Interface | Add your own column.

Code:

Lookup Name: formats
Column Heading: Formats
Column Type: Column built from other columns
Template: {formats} 
  or
          {:'approximate_formats()'}

thank you for the reply. I was, however, referring to a simple list, in calibre, of the different formats being used in the library. I can certainly do as you suggest but it drives me nuts when I used to be able to do something and, now, forget how I did it <G>

Thanks again..........

Tag Browser: Formats
That will show the ones in use and the counts
