> 3. I have a "Discworld" collection which contains 40 books and also a
subcollection (Discworld.The Science of Discworld). "Discworld" appears
duplicated. At the begining of the list I get a "Discworld (1 collection)"
entry and after the parent collection section I get another "Discworld (40
books)" entry.
The issue here is Calibre is creating separate collections for (Discworld) and
(Discworld.The Science of Discworld). Imho, the solution here is to change the
tags/settings in Calibre or create a custom column specifying the tags you want
Calibre to create Sony Collections/Sub-collections for.
> 4. It would be REALLY nice if Subcollections could appear as "folders" (I
mean the first items) within just one parent "Discworld" entry. Even better:
under Discworld, a text of "1 collection and 40 books" would be just perfect.
Wouldn't really want this behavior. There are cases where having both might be
preferred. Besides, what would you do if you get collisions or if the books
with the Discworld tag don't all match the books inside the various Discworld
sub-collections?

>>3. I don't understand your point.
Of course I have "Discworld" and "Discworld.The Science of Discworld"
collections. That's the whole point of Sub-Collections. PRS+ merges both
collections and makes "Discworld" a parent collection for the child "The
Science of Discworld".
>>4. I don't also understand your point.
It doesn't matter which books I have within "Disc" or "Disc.Science". It
doesn't matter if they are repeated or they are different books with the same
name or whatever. Collections and Sub-Collections are just "virtual" folders.
It's just a matter of appearance. I don't want "Disc" virtual folder entry
which just contains its other child "virtual" folders and ANOTHER "Disc"
virtual folder entry which contains just the books which are assigned to
"Disc". I prefer them merged just in one entry.
If the same book is repeated inside "Disc" and "Disc.Science", it just will
appear firstly in the "Disc" Collection list, and if you go inside "Science" it
will also appear there. "Disc" collection list NEVER EVER directly shows the
"Science" contents. You must go inside "Science" folder in order to see its
contents. That's again the whole point of Sub-Categories

I understand the desire to see sub-collections and books together in their
'parent', and would make it an option if I could (I considered it when coding
the sub-collection support). Unfortunately, it's very hard to implement, due to
the fact that book listings are underneath VERY different from 'regular'
listings. I'll put it on the FR list, but don't hold your breath on this one ;)

Don't worry. Just a desire.
Do whatever you can, whenever you can or feel it could be interesting...
