Showing template-computed columns as [rating] stars isn't possible?
The Context (if you must know)
Spoiler:
The Question Calibre seemingly doesn't try to recognize if the source of a pseudo-field's output has a special display mode already designated; and alternatively, I can't find a way to explicitly specify that this pseudo-field's column is a rating (the column type is either "ratings, shown with stars", which doesn't allow inputting a template but shows as a rating, or it's a "column built from other columns", which does allow inputting a template but doesn't get interpreted as a rating and appropriately shown with rating stars). Am I missing something? Last edited by kaoruAngel; 11-05-2017 at 06:55 PM. Reason: Wrong thread icon |

i dont think there is UI for it but you could probably insert it into the column definition by hand in the database, admittedly not for the faint of heart

If you want to format a composite column (a computed column) then you must do the formatting yourself in the template. I see three ways to do what you want.
