Custom Column Build from other Columns
Hi.
I was wondering why, when I choose a "Column build from other Columns, behaves like tags", why isn't the info click-able in book details like normal columns set like tags? Thanks |

There is no index (linkage) because the value shown is computed. |

That's a shame.
It would be really neat if that were possible. Don't suppose that it is possible to add the option to Calibre? |

And the "Shows in tags browser" option works fine, what is the difference between a list of links in the tags browser and links in the Book Details? BR |

I had hoped that "Behaves like tags" meant it did all the things the tags columns did.
