No, that's a missing feature [1] that I hadn't remembered to finish. I'll
try to get that into the 0.6.1 release after we finish releasing 0.6.0.

Just playing around with deletion – as far as I can tell, there doesn’t
seem to be a way to unmark a file for deletion, and once a comic is marked
for deletion the pop-out menu isn’t available.
Can I just confirm that I’m not missing something?

Remember, you're not marking the comics for deletion: you're marking the
duplicate pages for deletion. But I see the bug:
* the toaster message (the box in the upper right corner) is reporting
the number of different duplicates rather than the number of pages marked
for deletion, which is one bug, and
* the label for each duplicate page shouldn't say "Found in X comics."
but "Found X times.", which is the other bug.
So could you open them as two separate bugs?
For the selection issue, I think it's an expectation issue and not a bug:
you don't need to select a comic to open it, you can just right click on a
comic, selected or not, and open it from the popup menu. Viewing a comic
and going back to the library view won't clear the selection since no
operation was done on the selected comics. This lets your look at a single
comic's details when building a selection without affecting your previous
selections.
We could definitely enhance the delete dialog to make it easier for the
admin to see what they're about to delete. But I don't think the scenario
you described is a bug: that's how the app is intended to work.

Right, so I’ve had a quick play (less than a minute)...and I have some
serious reservations about deleting pages or comics and library
consolidation.
I’ll raise a bug for this later, but marking pages for deletion just about
gave me a heart attack – the toaster message indicate that every duplicate
page had been flagged for deletion, despite only one set of three pages
was selected. Hovering over the duplicates points at the toaster being
incorrect.
Onto my reservations – there’s no way (that I can see) to identify which
comics have been marked for deletion. This is especially problematic if I
chose to delete the physical files – and for sure I’ve accidentally marked
some for deletion before. Need to raise a bug about that too, as it
appeared (will confirm prior to raising the bug) that CX didn’t clear
selected comics when I returned to the library menu, so when I marked two
comics for deletion, CX also marked the comic I’d just opened.
Will provide more feedback later when I get a chance to have a proper poke
around.

Hi, like bareheiny, I tried to create a reading list and add comics during
2 hours without success... (it was my first time with this feature)... but
after reading the issues, I saw that it was not possible anymore if I
understood well (issue #274).

Starting with a new dB for this (I may have modified my dB a bit...noting
major, just a few extra tables I find useful).
So far the import speed seems better - but I’m not sure anything changed
there, so may be imagining things.
Anyway, I’ve noticed that 0.7 is now available - do you want that, or 0.6
tested? If 0.6, I’ll modify my bat file to disable the automatic updating.
I also can’t see a way to create reading lists in 0.6 - is that intended?
Asking due to the bugs you’ve raised...

Hey, all! Wanted to reach out and let you know that I'm preparing to put
out the v0.6.0-0.rc1 for ComiXed.
This is a release candidate, so expect bugs. Please be sure to backup your
database before running this release, so you can restore it if there are
issues. And I'd definitely suggest not using it on any live data until we
get to the GA.
It's also the first drop in the release schedule I'd like to follow. What
I'd like to do is put out a new release every 3 months of whatever is
currently working, to get it into more hands more quickly.
And to follow the open source model, I'll put the release to a vote when
everybody's had a chance to download, play with and test the candidate. If
a bug is identified as a blocker, then a new release candidate will need to
be developed and tested. When we're all in agreement that a release
candidate has no blockers, and any bugs found are deemed acceptable, then
we'll mark that as the GA.
NOTE: There are three features that I didn't get a chance to address by
today, so I'm going to put them on the next release's schedule. But, as
they're developed, I'll put out an incremental 0.6.n release with them for
people to use before then.
That said, look to the releases[1] and please download the release. Bang
on it, click things and see what happens. And please report any bugs with
reproducer steps when you hit them.
