Vitrual Lib-Names with ampersand at Content Server

Divingduck · 02-27-2014, 11:22 AM

Kovid,
there seems to be a little problem with virtual libraries names containing an ampersand. The displayed names are wrong with double ampersand instead of one.

An example:

Virtual library name: Essen && Trinken

Display name in calibre library Virtual libraries tab: Essen & Trinken -> ok

Display name in tag browser: Essen && Trinken
Display name in book details: Essen && Trinken
Display name in custom columns: Essen && Trinken
Display name content server: Essen && Trinken
Display name content server feed-view: Essen && Trinken

I'm confused, you have put a double ampersand in the virtual library name, so it will be displayed with a double ampersand. The bug is really that single ampersands are not displayed in the virtual library tabs (as they are used to denote accelerator keys).

And here is a fix for the bug with single ampersands not being displayed: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...1e471bfe2b0594

Yes this was my work around in the past to use a ampersand. Calibre 1.11.0 Virtual Lib-Names with ampersand at Content Server

So you replace the && work around to single & in Calibre, right? For the future I don't need to use a double ampersand anymore. This is perfect.

Thanks again, Kovid
