Can't directly select Book description text
It used to be in version 6.28 that I could use standard mouse operations to selected text in the book description window for pasting elsewhere.
Then I upgraded to 7.16, Now I can copy ALL the details, but attempting to select a section of the details with a mouse does nothing. If I open the book details in a separate window I can select text, but not in the main calibre window. Is there some new setting I am missing? |

Hold your face differently and try again
![]() W10, I just started to the Left of the first letter and it worked. It does seem to need some precision (and the boundary to the other metadata is not exactly obvious) Last edited by theducks; Today at 04:07 PM. Reason: changed from Cover to Metadata |
