Book details
I set my book details to be below the main database as this is easy to see for each book as I scroll down. The comments used to be to the side of the other book details but are now below which means I have to scroll. The last change log for Release: 7.4 [19 Jan, 2024] notes under Bug fixes:
"Fix a regression in the previous release that caused comments in the Book details panel to be rendered below rather than at the side of the other information". However the comments only sit below in this version and I can't find how to get them back to the side. It looks like there is an additional column in the panel as I can resize it using the elipses nest to the cover picture, but I don't know how to move the comments back over there. |

I know you can't please everyone, but this program does its best to try. Anyway, is there any way to turn this off and put the comments back under the book details in Macbook? If not I'll hold off updating to 7.4.

When using "wide" mode, items in book details are shown on the right in a single column. |

Would there be a blank column on the right if there are no notes? |

BTW: I assume that when you say "notes" you mean "comments". Because if you really mean the new "notes" feature then they aren't displayed in book details at all. |

If you want a Floating mostly details window, try using the Info pane

I am on 7.4 but it not working for me
Ever since I updated to 7.4 the comments have reverted to being at the bottom, instead of the side where they were. So I am not sure what is happening. I have attached a screenshot. I really love your passion for this and thank you for taking the time to look at our comments.

Hmmm… I see it doesn't show associated shortcuts, and it lacks an action to move Book details BR |
