In the Library window Info pane, please show all the meta-data for a book there so I don't have to constantly fiddle with columns and the scrollbar to see it in the main Library window.

Also, show all the meta-data in the Resource window Info panel that's available when a resource has been opened, and make it editable there too.  I'm more often in that Info screen than the one in the Library.

    Yes, and please allow changing of the tags and rating there also, not only in the Library. It would be much more useful. I suggested that already in some other posts.

    The Info in both places should be the same i.e. Library column "meta data" + Resource "Indexes" & "Search Fields" + Description & Citation.

    In Library, I would also like Prioritize and Info panes to be side-by-side (with the ability to "remove" either of them) whilst still allowing a resource to be dragged onto Prioritize. This is more practical when Library is "floating", but the aim is to see the data types (Indexes) of the resource so that it may be properly Prioritised  e.g. to prevent BDB becoming an English or Latin resource, to prevent or allow DBL Greek being the source for Strong's numbers!
