[Feature Request] Handle multiple series for a book #139

Open tehguitarist opened 5 days ago

Currently (And this may well have changed) only one series is displayed. It's unclear how this series is chosen (even ABS is unclear, it doesn't seem to be order of creation, or alphabetical, so perhaps UUID?) It would be nice to see if a book has multiple series within the book description.

To be clear, the series show correctly, it's just the books not showing multiple series in the description, only one.

This has larger UI ramifications (other books in series display), so not anything important.

Use cases for multiple series in ABS is overall and sub series where collections are maybe innapropriate.

For example, I do use collections for Star Wars books given the scope and relative disconnectedness, but for Terry Pratchett's Discworld, there is is the main Discworld series, and then within that, separate storylines.

Where would you like to see all series enumerated? The audiobook view already does it, the series name should consist of all of them and tapping it should bring up a menu where you can navigate to each one. The context menus don't do that right now, but will in 2.5.0.

Are there any other places I missed, I don't use multiple series personally, so I have to rely on feedback to find these.

Maybe I’m going crazy but I’m seeing it all where I could have sworn that I wasn’t before. I’ll have a look around though. There are only two broad series I use it for as I’m not hugely thrilled by how ABS handles multiple series anyway.
