Sony PRS-300 Collections Sort
Is there any way to sort the actual list of collections on a Sony PRS-300? If so, then is there a way to do this from calibre. I don't mean the sort order within individual collections, (this is well documented), but rather the order of items in the collections list itself.
The default sort is clearly alphabetic so I tried using 2-digits as a sort prefix. This works but looks messy and of course affects the tags in calibre's library, (since these tags generate the collections). |

I think it is always alphabetical order but you might be able to prefix collections to meet your goal. Quote:
Collections are generated only on things you allow. This is controlled in the Device interface plugin for Sony. By default Series and tags are used to create collections but you can change it if you wish. You could have a custom column create your collections. Between custom columns and the tweak pointed to above you can control the collections list as you see fit. Last edited by DoctorOhh; 04-28-2011 at 12:43 AM. |

I understand that newer models offer different sorts, but I don't know what they are, whether they work. or whether they apply to the display of names of collections. |

I use calibre tags to generate the collections and I was trying to keep my most commonly used collections on the first page listed on the reader, and then lesser used collections on subsequent pages. I'll also have a look at the "Specify renaming rules for sony collections" tweak to see what it can do for me. |
