[Request] Eidetic Memory addon

[AliiEso]

Hello, I know nothing about addons so this may be a rediculous request. I would love an addon that doesn't show books in the Eidetic Memory section of the journal until they have been discovered. Missed books are driving me crazy. Thanks for reading.

I'm not sure if it exactly what you want, but here is my book filter:

If you want downloadable version, it is BookFilters-0.1.zip in my Dropbox folder.

Wow! That is incredible, I can't believe you made it so fast. Thank you.
One small thing though, is it possible to remove the counters that say x/x? Probably not possible, but I would like them to go when 'known' is selected.

As the entries in this list seem to be only text (even the x/y is included into the text) it may be possible by hooking the controls ZO_LoreLibraryNavigationContainerScrollChildZO_LabelHeaderN (where n is the number increasing from top to bottom for each entry of book categories) and filtering the shown text by regular expressions, so the numbers and the / will be hidden?

I made the adjustments you asked for & fixed the dropDown box so it is in sync with your saved setting. You can thank Garkin for doing all the hard work.

You can find it on my dropbox here: Garkins BookFilters Version 2.0

Wow, thank you so much! You are both amazing, and I really appreciate it.
