EBook Cover Not Showing

[IamHera]

Hi there,

I'm new to Calibre so my apologies if this is a newbie question. I searched the forum and didn't find an answer.

I just created an ebook based on an MS Word docx and image file for the cover. The book itself looks perfect!!! It worked like a charm

But when I open it on the Kindle app (also on OSX), the book opens and reads perfectly but, when listed in the library, the cover isn't showing as an icon on the list.

Is there a configuration option I'm missing for that?

Thank you!
Hera

Which library? If the calibre library, which list?

The calibre book list does not have a column in which the cover is displayed. You can use the Layout button in the status line to display the Book details sidebar, Cover grid, and/or Cover browser.
