How to list books that are missing actual covers?
Hi

Is it possible to list books that are missing covers(or maybe ones that are using generic one assigned by Cal or missing one)?

There is also the "show cover grid" button in Calibre which shows the book covers rather than a list of the books. Then you can just scroll down through your collection and see which don't have a cover on them.

That is my default. I just have way too many missing covers mixed txt formats. It is a nice method otherwise

This one also works to spot those generic Publishers covers that would otherwise pass the size test
