Removing no format books

saiyuki · 08-17-2014, 10:20 AM

Hi. After a big clean up i find i have many books showing up as having no format. The first book is highlighted in blue, but the rest are in green. Using the 'Remove' option allows only for highlighted (blue) books -of which only the first is. How then is it possible to have the rest of the green books highlighted so i can remove them all in bulk?

Regards

Then click CTRL+A to select all currently-showing books.

Hi. I used the Quality check to find the books. If i press CTRL+A it selects all of the books -even those not coloured green

I'm an idiot. This is the problem:

Sticky: Search is showing all books with some highlighted! How do I fix this?

Hi. Yup that worked. At first look though it doesn't actually highlight the results, it just shows all the books without being highlighted. Simple enough though to click the blank area above the #1 on the left column to highlight them all

Thanks for your help.
