I would like to bee abile to filter out some stacks if the the number of books in it; either to many or to few, so I can make a smartlist called "Short Runs" and "Long Runs"

It is not possible to get the size of stacks (as stacks are only defined by view settings).

But is should be rather easy to write a smartlist-script that e.g. groups all series and returns only series with some group count value.

I could probably write this for you bugger, if you are interested.

I was wondering recently... would such smartlist be scriptable:

If Writer has more than one Series present in the Library, list all books by him.

or

If Series has more than X volumes then list all the books of this Series.

or

If book for Series was added to library in last X days, create SmartList with all the books of this Series.

etc.


The point is I'd like to have SmartList with all the books of certain Series listed, when only few of the books of this Series match the criteria. But that would be sufficient to include all the books of this Series in SmartList.

I think so.
If Series has more than X volumes then list all the books of this Series.

Easily.
If book for Series was added to library in last X days, create SmartList with all the books of this Series.

Maybe???


@bugger
Here you go.

Smartlist script Series Count Is...

To install just download and then double-click the file attached to this post.

To use create a new smartlist and choose "User Scripts" in the metadata field and "Series Count is" in the instruction field.

The first text box is the instruction. Second box is the number.

Valid instructions are: < > =

< is series smaller then the number
> is series greater then the number
= is series equal to the number

Here is an example of getting series that have more then twenty issues


Have fun!
