In Calibre in the Subject field I have classified my books using Dewey. Thus on the Left Hand Side in Calibre, as well as the usual Author
Series
Publisher.. I have Subject which provides a hierarchical structure (see picture). E.g.
300Anthropology
500NaturalScience
...... 500NaturalScience.510Maths
.............500NaturalScience.510Maths.512Algebra
This provides automatic subject filtering in Calibre. I am trying to do the same in CC. The OTB CC gives me automatic Title, Author, Series (etc) Grouping. I added #Subject expecting the same to happen, but it seems to be treated very differently. I :
1. Click on Group By #Subject (expecting to see them grouped by . Subject),
2. It prompts me to enter a search term.
3. I enter 512 (i.e. Algebra)
4. It tells me how many are in that Group but doesnt display the list.
5. I THEN need to Ungroup them to display the list of books
6. I can then Group By (Author, Publisher etc)
So instead of a ONE click action, it is now a six click process. It seems that the user custom Group, functions more as a Filter rather than a Group. Is that correct ? How can I get it to behave as an actual Group ?
If I cant Custom Group, then it would seem that I would need to copy the Subject to the Tag Field then use the Tags or some other way. Any thoughts ?
