Lightbulb Differentiate application from library settings [Feature request]
Preferences and Tweeks should allow you to easily identify when it comes to application-wide or library-only settings.

Maybe rearrange the settings in different tabs or split tabs under different headers, not sure.

Currently it is very confusing to know when a setting its a library setting or even when a setting is overridden by another.

Please keep this under consideration!

Tweaks are always application wide.

Good to know.
So "Preferences" is the only place that requires a reorganization of tabs!

Take the Preferences / Look and Feel / Book details:

Show Covers / or Use roman for series = Application wide
Metadata do be shown = Library setting

Both are on the same screen, but you only know which part applies after you change the library!

I'm not a programmer and can't collaborate to change this, but I'm not requiring a change / correction either. I simply share my work on Caliber translations and hope that someday someone will find this problem interesting and have some time to find a way to separate the preferences.
