No, I don't use that, just the regular add to default list and it adds the entire series. But I tried using it, added the series, then removed all those books from the list. When I went back to the single add to default list, it just added the one book. Guess something got crossed up somewhere and maybe that fixed it? Not sure because it only seems to happen when I add a new book, then add that book to the reading list and the book I've been using isn't really new anymore.
Thanks for the help!

So did anyone (other than capink) have an opinion about this?

Otherwise I'll release it in a few days.

So far the option to restore the sort order is working.

Why can't I resize (vertically) the 'Customize plugin...'-popup window?

The window opens up so tall that I can not see the bottom, (unless I change Calibres fontsize to 6 and move task bar to the side).

New Test Version

- RL: Allow config dialog to scroll so it can resize smaller

The dialog was resize-able, but there was a minimum height based on the size of the contents. Changing to allow the dialog to scroll if sized smaller is pretty easy, though.

Thanks, that was better.

But not perfect. I can only see the upper part of the OK and Cancel buttons at the bottom (though they are clickable).

The OK/Cancel are outsize the scroll area deliberately. Just resize dialog smaller and move it up.

Aaah. Got it.

New Version Released

Version 1.11.0 - 25 Jun 2022
- Allow config dialog to scroll so it can resize smaller

Attached here is a version to make the new restore sort work under PyQt6. I think also the changes below are needed for other parts of the plugin.

Qt.PartiallyChecked > Qt.CheckState.PartiallyChecked
Qt.Checked > Qt.CheckState.Checked
Qt.Unchecked > Qt.CheckState.Unchecked

For some reason, those did not work for me in the restore sort code. I have to resort to using the boolean isChecked() method instead.

JimmXinu · 06-29-2022, 06:34 PM

Thanks for pointing this out. I may be a day or two before I can look at it myself.

I gave noticed a number of times that 'Reading List' has (leftover/Standing) things to process that users forgot about setting up.

Is it possible to have an Alternate Toolbar Icon when this is true?
(add/overlay a clock face, book... to the standard icon)

Unfortunately, just doing a global find and replace to these breaks back compatibility to calibre 2 and 3. Cursory testing shows it does work with calibre 4 & 5.

From https://calibre-ebook.com/dynamic/calibre-usage
Usage share by major version
5 78.0%
4 8.7%
3 9.0%
2 2.9%
1 0.8%
0 0.6%

I hesitate to drop cal 3 support when it out numbers cal 4.

capink's report of needing isChecked() is also concerning, but offers an incentive to not use Qt.CheckState.

Changing everything to isChecked() and setChecked(True/False) instead of using the Qt.CheckState values would be fine, I think, except for FavouriteMenu's use of PartiallyChecked. I think all other references to PartiallyChecked in the kiwidude plugins I maintain are unused and can be removed.

That doesn't address all the other kiwidude plugins...

I don't understand what you mean. Regardless, I'd probably accept a patch for that, but I'm not interested in adding it myself.
