For those who read and track physical books in Calibre, here's an Action Chain that can set a #percentread column based on the current page number. It's useful alongside Reading Goal.

What happens if there's books in the goal without a page-count?
A few days ago I accidentally added a few books to the reading goal before adding their page-counts, but I didn't notice any odd effects (and the page counts appeared in the goal after populating the column). |

Due to user error, one of the books in my #rggenres ended up with a tag of "eBooks." (instead of the intended eBooks.Fiction)
It appeared in the Statistics, but then when I tried to track it down in Edit Goal it didn't appear: I had to dig into the json file to identify the book it was and fix it. This made me think - would it be much difficult to implement a 'mark books' for the Statistics window? Aside from this corner-case glitch, it would also be interesting to see all the books read in a specific month. |

Not very easy. The bars can't be selected right now. But I'll take a look. |

Works as expected! This'll be helpful.
What triggers the backup? Any RG action, or opening specific dialogs? Suggestion: Since 'Edit Reading Goal' can become inaccessible due to errors, perhaps also add 'restore backup' button to the configuration dialog. |

Version 1.5.0 - 06 Apr 2024
