Emblems

BigGeeNotts · 10-20-2018, 09:35 AM

Hi All

I currently am using emblems in cover grid to show me various things at a glance.

If I've read the book, where I got the book from (Amazon, Kobo, Google) where I downloaded the metadata from (Amazon, Google, Goodreads) and so on.

Now I would like to highlight if any of my books as won or been nominated for an award. So I downloaded a nice gold rosette for winner and a silver one for a nominee. Added a custom column in calibre called awards, and set it up as hierarchical in preferences.

Now the awards are going to be in the format of:

[award].[category].[year].(nominee)

Obviously, the winner won't have 'nominee' at the end.

So in Preferences > Look and Feel > Cover Grid > Emblems I added a rule for award winner and award nominee.

Award Winner has the conditions of:

if the "Awards" column "is set"
&
if the "Awards" column "does not have" values "Nominee"

Award Nominee has the conditions of:

if the "Awards" column "is set"
&
if the "Awards" column "has" values "Nominee"

But it doesnt show up the emblems

Can anyone help?

Thanks Gareth
