However I do get the borders on inactive tabs if I change User interface style to System default. But that forces calibre into Light Mode even though I have Windows set to Dark Mode. Windows + Qt in this space is as obscure to me as Heidegger is on existentialism.

I am not bothered by the lack of borders on inactive tabs.

Thanks, that gives me a hint on what to look into. I had noticed this didn't bother you

WTF - whilst chatting with my carer on the phone, my Evening Pill alarm popped - and right there in front of me calibre went into Dark Mode.

Go figure - I can't be bothered I'll stick to Heidegger.

Still no luck with borders on inactive Tabs in 2.0.1. The absence doesn't bother me; so I shan’t pursue the issue further.

I've taken 2.0.1 for a spin - shortcuts and Enter are resolved to some degree, but the list is only refreshed if I Quit and Start CCR. Thanks for adding the Default setting that'll save me time when replying here… but I would have preferred Assigned first. I tried moving the Default after Assigned but it didn't persist… not a big deal for me.

I added my "standard" Ctrl+Alt→ and Ctrl+Alt← for Next Tab and Previous Tab, they do work if a list does NOT have focus but they don't work if a list has focus… i.e. same as the hard coded settings.

You might want to borrow from Sigil and implement a toggle to flip between Focus on List and Focus on Tabbar, look in the View Menu.

chaley did something similar to deal with switching focus between the Tag Browser and the Book List - it's the Give the Tag browser keyboard focus shortcut in the Miscellaneous group. Less elaborate and probably closer to what we have here.

Oddity: When I double click a shortcut, Calibre's shortcuts dialog appears. When I close it with either ESC key or clicking Cancel, it closes but then opens again immediately. No issue closing a second time.

Something similar happens double clicking plugins, your info dialog pops, then pops again when the first is closed.

I don't see this with the other tabs.

Yeah I noticed that, will release a fix tomorrow

Noted.

For the moment, I opted for adding a Refresh button in the shortcuts tab, and you'll notice that, after switching tabs, it should refresh automatically as well.

edit: just saw an issue with 2.0.1 not fetching the release date in some cases. This was working fine in 2.0.0, so I need to see what's causing this.

[BetterRed]

I missed the Refresh button, it works fine… good enough for me.

I have uploaded version 2.0.2:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=369555

I plan to add later updated description with newest features and bug fixes.

Please see if you like this new version.

(note: for some buttons, the alt-accelerators only work after the second CCR run. I can't fix that)

Thanks for the additional values to filter shortcuts - more than requested by me ;-)

Here are some comments/question/request from me:

How to get values for column "Forum Thread" in tab "Plugin". A link to the describing webpage would be nice like in Calibre ... "Homepage of the Plugin".

Currently mouse-hovering to show full column content seems to work only in tab "Custom Columns" column "Display Setting". Some more, or all, would be nice e.g. Value in Settings, Template and Description in CustomColumns

Question: when will you provide this plugin "official". Currently I need to download and import. Setting like column selection is overwritten.
Also may be a good point in time to start a version history or a link to your repository.

You're welcome! Glad you liked it!

Oh, this was unintended regression, thanks for noticing it. In my earlier versions the forum thread could be exported... I guess when the behaviour to click the Visit cell directly in order to visit plugin thread was implemented, the URL export/visibility was lost, but this should be an easy fix. In the weekend I will release a new version with this fix.

Noted, I will see what can be implemented in this regard.

Well, thanks for asking. I need to ask the mods to include CCR in the plugin index and now I think plugin is ready to be included.

What do you mean column selection is overwritten? In which tab? I believe latest version 2.0.2 has fixed this issue.

[Katja_hbg]

I am sure that I changed the order of columns and adjusted the width in tab plugins. After implementing version 2.0.1 all was reset ... I will do a test with latest version hopefully next week.

[Comfy.n]

Plugin is now available for direct installation via Calibre's Plugin Updater.

Release notes - version 2.0.3:

- added OS information display in the dialog header (top-left)
- added Calibre version display in the dialog header (top-left)
- added a 'Reset column state' action on the Plugins tab
- added a 'Reset column state' action on the Settings tab
- added a "Refresh" action on the Shortcuts tab — updates currently assigned shortcuts in the CCR table
- added registered keyboard shortcuts for the following actions: Calibre Config Reports (Open Plugin); CCR: Export current tab to CSV; CCR: Export current tab to Excel (XLSX); CCR: Load plugin(s) from file; CCR: Next tab; and CCR: Previous tab. To ensure the Next/Previous Tab shortcuts work when focus is on a selectable table item, move focus away from the table (for example, to the tab bar).
- added shortcuts filtering (search/filter by built-in Calibre features, user plugin shortcuts, assigned vs. unused shortcuts, key combinations or single-key shortcuts; regular expression search supported)
- added an 'Open configuration folder' button for quick access to Calibre config files (advanced use)
- added hover-tooltips for some long/truncated columns (e.g., Value, UI Location, Description/Template)
- added single-click activation for Forum Thread and Donate cells (opens URL)
- reinstated Forum Thread URL in the Plugins tab
- general fixes

edit to add: i will release a small update shortly.

2.0.5: minor UI fix
