What about the blue colour of the authors in the tag browser

[HibDelyatt]

Hello all,

In the tag browser, the small blue icons of the authors are usually completely light blue. Some, however, are filled with dark blue to varying degrees from bottom to top. There seems to be no correlation to the number of books for each author. There are authors with 20 books that are filled less dark blue than other authors with only one book that are almost completely dark blue.
So what criterion is used to colour the icons in the author list dark blue?

Thank you for your time & regards

See the calibre documentation for the Tag browser. It says:

Items in the Tag browser have their icons partially colored. The amount of color depends on the average rating of the books in that category. So for example if the books by Isaac Asimov have an average of four stars, the icon for Isaac Asimov in the Tag browser will be 4/5th colored. You can hover your mouse over the icon to see the average rating.
