Calibre right pane single book information
Hi, folks!
A while back I imported a library into Calibre and must have done something goofy because the right pane that shows individual book information has stuff like "Uncomma Author", "Title Length", "Title Parm B", "Title Parm F", "Number of Words in Auth" and so on. I'd post a photo if possible and I knew how. How do I fix this and go back to the original Calibre information, eliminating the rest of that nonsense (short of a complete purge and reinstall of the software)? Thanks. |

Imported a Library from where?
When you import, and the imported discovers the source had custom (columns) metadata that do not currently exist in the current Library, it asks do you want to keep those (not exact words). You must have said Yes. Even Standing on your head while re installing Calibre , will not get rid of them ![]() Those columns ARE NOW in the current Library (structure). You will need to use the Add Columns feature to remove those. Note: There is no UNDO, so be careful ![]() |

Use the paperclip icon in the editors bar. Top row next to the smilie face.
You can remove those columns from display in Preferences>Look&Feel>BookDetails or remove them completely from Preferences>Add your own columns |

Thanks
to both posters above for your responses. I'll try the suggestions tomorrow when I'm not so fuzzy headed.
