Calibre not remembering 'Title' sorting preference?
I keep setting the library cover browser to sort by Title and it does at first, but when I restart Calibre it sorts by Author.

How do I get Calibre to remember to sort by Title each time? This is a default installation, I haven't messed with any of the settings so I don't see why it shouldn't remember my sort preference.

Am running on a Mac running Mavericks, btw, if that helps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated -- thanks in advance!

Go to Preference - Tweaks and set the # Specify columns to sort the booklist by on startup Tweak.

Okay, think I figured it out -- seems to be a bug that exists ONLY in thumbnail view. If I click 'Hide Cover Grid' and THEN sort by Title, then Calibre remembers the setting. Then I switch back to 'Show Cover Grid' and sorting stays set to 'Title' upon restart.

Obviously a bug but a minor one, fyi...
