Quickview

Hi,

I use Quickview a lot, so I let it docked. I use it most of the time to find books of the same author or to find the next book of a series I'm currently reading.
When you double click a column inside Quickview, it is supposed to use that column as a filter to populate the list. This does happen when I double click 'authors' or 'publisher', for example. But it fails when I double click 'series'.

This is the message I get:

Code:

The column you double-clicked, 'series', is not shown in the library view. The book/column cannot be selected by Quickview.

But the 'series' column does show in the library view. As a matter of fact, the library view has no restriction (searches, VL, tags, etc).

What am I doing wrong?

PS.: Preferences > Look & fell > Quickview: 'Double click changes examined column' checkbox is already marked.

I had that happen just the other day, when double-clicking the column 'tags' in Quickview...
As I don't use it very often, I thought the message was triggered by me doing something wrong.
