like the publisher name: starting out with "Ra" and having it complete with "Random House" would be so nice. And the same with the Author's name: "Steph" complete with any other "Steph" names, etc. Actually, pretty much have this feature in every box that requires alpha characters would really speed up data entry for folks with large collections by the same author.
In general agree with this statment
2. Wondering what the purpose of the scroll bar is in the list of of books in the column left of the book information with the cover pic and synopsis. The scroll bar moves, but the text doesn't. You can only scroll through the list by using the up/down arrow keys.
I think because from the left you can place many fields and sort books by them. you can chose that fields in settings
3. I have decided to group several of my books into specific categories rather than by author or title. For instance: the books teaching crochet, tole painting, knitting, etc., are listed under "Crafts" and in order to make the "Crafts" category, I've had to use the Author box. It works for my purposes but I think a true "Category" box would be really helpful - especially with all my Computer Program Instruction Manuals, and Bibles and Bible Study materials.
For me this problem is resolved by usage of additional custom fields (See settings).
So I can filter my books using that fields I have created myself.
For instance I have categories:
Aircraft, Armor, Infantry et.al. And can easily filter books, which had been issued in those category(ies).
Also I apply my own personal marks (ibid), also very useful...
I also enjoy this program, however it still cotains some bugs...
Good luck
