Calibre 6.6.0 edit metadata window
Upgraded from 6.5.0 to 6.6.0 and edit metadata window doesn't remembers size and position, opening with different size and location every time I try to edit.
Any ideas? |

It has deliberately been changed not to remember window position, because of a Qt issue with remembering window positions on multimonitor setups (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=349236). As for size that is indeed a bug fixed in the next release.

Calibre 6.6 Metadata editor window size
With the new 6.6 update for Calibre (Windows 10) the metadata editor always opens at nearly full screen size. Previously the editor remembered the previous size instead of defaulting to this big size and having to resize the window. Is there a new setting where I can change it back to the previous behavior or is it a bug in the new version?

Thank you for clarifying the problem. So that means I'll have to stay with 6.5.0 until the window size AND position are fixed.

The only reason I don't have a second screen set up is because my desk is too small.
