Creating a virtual library according how many books by author
Hi, it's me again. In this opportunity I have 2 questions. The first one is about the title of this post. I want to create a virtual library (or category) only with authors, by example, with at least 10 books. How can i do that?
And the second question is about part of the first one. Where I can learn about the commands, functions, variables, etc.? So, by this way, not only I can learn, but also I can develop my own solutions and, maybe, could help others. Please, sorry my grammar (if I made mistakes, please correct me to learn) Regards from Lima, Perú |

You really do not need a VL for this.
In the Tag Browser each Author (Series,Publisher) has a count next to their name In addition, If you use the 'Alter Tag Browser" (or your locale name) button at the bottom of the Tag Browser. Set it to: 'Sort by number of books' and the 'Authors' list will now blocks of numbers (descending) ![]() |

Thanks for answer, but I really want to create a VL only with no less 10 books per author. The solution that you show me, works of course, but it's not efficient for me, because I must change the sort of the list every time I need to found a specific author. For that reason I want to create a VL with a specific rule (by example, author with no less 10 books but not more than 20).
Thanks again. I hope you can help me. |

Thank you very much, worked perfectly. However I have a question, why some icons opaque appearing opaque icons and other only half opaque? See the capture. And certainly, these icons like as Roman columns,what's mean?
Thank you very much again. Greetings from Lima, Peru blessings |
