Save-to-Disk Template Drop-Down List

CJHusVar · 07-23-2021, 07:45 AM

This may seem like a silly question, but how do I remove items from a drop down list? Specifically the Save-to-Disk Template drop down in Preferences->Save to Disk.

I finally have the two or three templates I like tweaked and tested and I would like to remove all the other template entries that I created along the way.

I've looked around in the documentation and the forum and haven't found anything that addresses this. Is this possible?

Thanks

They're in one of the calibre configuration files: gui.py.json, look for "save_to_disk_template_history"

You can access the calibre configuration folder via a button in Preferences->Miscellaneous

Close calibre before you start editing any files in that folder
