Moved to Library Management

Most of us make a custom column for reading status.
Mine is a date type. Others keep finer details (this is also mostly dependent on the device plugins to populate).

Once you have that established. A Virtual Library (search template driven) allows a quick switch of the Library View (sortable as usual)

Have Read (VL):
Code:
#finished:true and formats:True
To Read:
Code:
Not #finished:>12/31/2000 and formats:true and not formats:other and not #usertags:split_up
As you can see, I have other filters as part of this.
I have Empty Books for my Paperback collection, Wishlist
The finished date <2001 is Abandoned or the Split apart source
formats:other is something not Viewable.

How do you get the mini image to appear?
I use the the [Attach] tags just like you, but you have an image, I have text.

It might have something to do with the 'parse links' setting? I'll disable it in this post to test.

Your images have fallen into MR's bit bucket, you need to re-up and re-attach.

It happens if there's a delay of more than a couple of minutes between uploading them and posting the reply. Solution… tap Preview button just before Submit.

Remember there are 2 size rules in play. 600x600 for inline and the attachment TYPE each have a size limit called out in the paperclip tool.

If by "Mosaic view" you mean "Grid View", see Preferences->Look and feel->Cover grid->Emblems

It's very similar to @ownedbycats column icons.

Yep, but your image looks nothing like my paperclip pop-up box. See my image below
Plus, I wasn't uploading a new image, I was reusing an image I had uploaded previously.
To access that image, I go to UserCP>Attachments, then browse my images until I find the one I want, get the attachmentID and then surround it in the [attach] tags. Is there an easier method to find and reuse existing images?

I normally do hit Preview before submitting as a quick proof-read.

Oh, you can't reuse existing images I don't think.

Cats Attachment box just shows the attachments already loaded into that MESSAGE. That is where you can also remove the ones you no longer want as part of message.
(this may be a second edit case)

Validating the previous messages, for this question we usually have a custom column to which we add some column icon rules so that the images chosen for each option appear.
