short cut question
okay, first I want to thank the group for the help I received on my last question.
Now for a new one. I want to create a shortcut the will save to disk but with a different template tweak different than the one I have in my preferences. This is mainly for the groups of books that are based on a series but done written by different authors. IE. Star Wars, Star Trek, ect. I have worked out the template format for the books, but I want to assign a keystroke to save them, without having to change the template time after time. Any suggestions? |

@bulldogmo - calibre doesn't have a macro facility, it's been canvassed a couple of times with no results, for various reasons it's not easily done.
Suggestions - a) AHK or PTFB on Windows, Automator on OS X, Autokey on Linux; b) calibre enhancement to allow template selection at save time from the same drop down list as in Preferences->Save to Disk. BR |
