Is it true that custom columns with Yes/No formatting can only filter in English?

I'm not sure if that format is filtered correctly in other languages.

But when I use the Vietnamese interface, Yes/No is displayed as Đúng/Sai (đúng/sai), and I can't click on the value to filter for books that match that value. It displays all the books in the Library, and the search box is red.

And when I switch to the English interface, the results are correct.

Is there anywhere I can fix this problem?

Thank you for reading and helping.

Ah, I found a very manual way. It's to change the word "yes" or "no" in the search bar. Instead of clicking on the Vietnamese text.

Upon clicking any of the values in book details pane, the search bar throws an error if UI is in vietnamese.

I suggest you file a bug so Kovid or someone from the dev team can address it:

(and this is one of the reasons why I prefer all my software in english... )

Works OK for me in German and French

The Interface language list goes off-kilter if I change it to Vietnamese:

Looks like a bug to me.

I tested Hebrew, Japanese, Chinese, Greek. Yes/No filtering by clicking on the values in book details pane works fot those. So..I guess the issue is restricted to Vietnamese
