It works, thanks. I'm wondering if it's not impossible to someday integrate these annotations with now native Calibre annotations, to allow in-book experience

That is my plan. But, time is the problem. Plus, due the the information available, only annotations for epubs on Kobo devices can be positioned accurately.

Theoretically, could this also mean that the reading position could be synced between Calibre's reader and Kobo?

Great. I just installed the new beta version and it worked with my Clara HD.
But, how can one delete an annotation in calibre column? When I click the field it only opens up the annontation. |

If you want to remove just one annotation within multiple for a book, it is a bit tricker. In calibre 3.x and earlier, you could just edit the field, and as long as you removed all of the annotation, it would be fine. You can do this with current versions of calibre, but, it will probably break any future merges of annotations. When you edit the annotation (or any other long comments-like column) the widget that calibre uses parses the HTML for the field and produces something completely different. And it doen't look the same when it is displayed. That means that if you fetch the annotations from the device again, it may not correctly match them and you could end up with duplicates. I do not have a way to handle this better. And just in case you meant the annotations on the device, they are not touched in any way by the plugin. It will not update, remove or anything else other than read them. |

Hi David,
Yesterday I update Calibre from 4.23 to 5.7.2 and face some «challenge» with annotation. There is a new icon, green instead of yellow. Only for your information and to be sure that I am using yours. 1) the wording below the icon is now German «Anmerkungen durchsuchen» which is much too big. Could that be shorten as before «Annotations» or if translation is required «Anmerkungen». 2) the icon is without dropdown arrow and therefore I cannot check any settings. Maybe this is together with next point 3) I face the same issue which you fixed with comment #795. Will you publish this as official version soon? I am not sure how to upload a beta-zip and happy to wait some more days. |

Hi David,
Your quick reply is gift enough for me. «the wrong icon» this is what I thought first and therefore look for yours. But I cannot find it in the plugin list to add to the menue. Thre is only the green one. Any idea how to add yours back? Do I need to deinstall? Hopefully the setting will not be lost but in worsecase that would be ok. I already try to deactivate but got a dialog that I am not allow to deactivate. Edit: deinstal, restart calibre, install, restart calibre. Still no yellow icon nor Annotations.

Update to version 1.14.0
I have just released version 1.14.0 of the plugin. This is mainly a bug fix release to solve many problems with the Python 3 changes needed for calibre 5. Including that I had hardly made any changes for Kindle and tolino devices.
The changes in this version are:
At this point, the Sony support has not been tested. Or, at least I have had no reports of testing one way or another. It was added as someone asked about it, and when I searched, I found that someone had written the code and posted that here. But, there were no comments on it working or not. I have updated it for calibre 5 and added it without testing. If anyone does try it, please report what happens. This will be compatible with earlier versions for calibre. Most of my testing is with calibre v5, but, I have done some basic testing with versions 3.48 an 4.23. Calibre will announce the update in the next hour or so. For those already running calibre v5.7 or later, you might not be notified of the new version. In that case, you will need to install the update using the plugin updater. If there are any issues, please report them here. |

Doesn't work, but doesn't error either
So I suppose it's good news that it loads correctly and doesn't throw an obvious error, but it also doesn't work on either old books' annotations or newly transferred ones.
From reading the debug, it finds the book from the calibre library ok, but it can't seem to match the title that is in MyClippings.txt to the book that is on the device. The titles are identical. Only thing I can think of is that kindle adds the author in parentheses when saving to MyClippings.txt, but that can't be it, can it? Here's the matching. Code:
DEBUG: 16.4 resolve_paths. looking for book on device: book_path=E:\documents\Atomic Habits_ An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones - James Clear.bookmark DEBUG: 16.4 resolve_paths. looking for book on device: this_fmt=E:\documents\Atomic Habits_ An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones - James Clear.kfx DEBUG: 16.4 resolve_paths. found format: this_fmt=E:\documents\Atomic Habits_ An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones - James Clear.kfx Code:
DEBUG: 76.3 Getting metadata from book. path='E:\documents\Atomic Habits_ An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones - James Clear.kfx' DEBUG: 76.8 Book on device title: 'Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones' Code:
DEBUG: 76.8 Annotation for Title=='Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones' DEBUG: 76.8 Title not found in books on device Code:

As my classmate took a full swing, the bat slipped out of his hands and came flying toward me before striking me directly between the eyes. I have no memory of the moment of impact. ========== |

@UMNiK: I'm not that surprised as there has been a problem with KFX formatted books for a while. I did find something during the last set of fixes that I hoped would fix this, but, it obviously hasn't. Could you send me the full debug log and your My Clippings.txt to look at? Uploading them somewhere and sending a PM with the link is probably the best thing to do.
