pasteko Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) First, I really like LB and I have a premium license, thanks for all the work. But I don't use it because I can't organize the things the way I want. I think we really need folders and sub-folders, this has been asked from the start, so where's the problem? Sorry but the platform mode is not the solution for this. Edited July 12, 2017 by pasteko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundangdon Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 As far as I know, there isn't a frontend (such as Launchbox) that is capable of doing this, at least not yet. You can have multiple sub directories with a frontend like retrofe which is pretty decent, but for me it runs way too slow and it is not nearly as intuitive and convenient as launchbox. Having said that, this will probably be implemented in the future but if you want to see this feature added and contribute to the development of launchbox/bigbox, you can always send a bitbucket request https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 This is something I have on the "Small Things" list I have submitted to @Jason Carr It's part of the "Improved Playlists". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasteko Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) There's already some bitbuckets requests about this : https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/534/option-to-create-custom-submenus-and https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/1256/ability-to-use-nested-custom-filters https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/311/nested-filters and probably more, nested filters is now marked as resolved but for some people is not. This feature has the highest votes each time but was not even in the poll... Edited July 13, 2017 by pasteko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, and I was one of the people who voted for it to be implemented (about a year ago or so) Let's hope that this feature will be 'enhanced' sometime in the near future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaysArcade Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I would like to add my voice to the growing chorus of the desire for submenus as well as the ability to launch anything you want from the top level menu in Bigbox. Here is my ticket for that one. I think these features go hand in hand. https://bitbucket.org/jasondavidcarr/launchbox/issues/1521/ability-to-launch-a-program-or-game-from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasteko Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Is there any real chance we can organize our folders one day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 It's on the small things list so hopefully soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroX9876 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 this is my most wanted feature of all time! I've voted for it on the bitbuckets. I'm hoping it's in the next poll of wanted features, because I'm voting for this as number one! Polls like those really tackles the most wanted features and adding some of the top voted bitbuckets issues/features would be perfect for the next poll.

pasteko Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 How is it possible that retro-achievements and community ratings are more important than this??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 @pasteko This will be on the upcoming poll, and we will see how much of a priority it truly is. It's entirely possible that it really is what the community wants the most, but it's also entirely possible that it's only desired by a handful of very vocal power users. We'll find out, and if it turns out to be a priority, I'm more than happy to implement it. Per retro achievements and community ratings, I can guarantee you there is more excitement in the community surrounding those two features (at least for retro achievements) than this particular feature. One man's necessity is another man's wasted effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasteko Posted December 10, 2017 Author Share Posted December 10, 2017 Is it not the most voted issue on Bitbucket? Ok it's old, but there's also some topics talking all about the same feature (subcategories, multi-wheel, playlist folders...), LaunchBox is a wonderful piece of software thanks all the work, but how it possible we can't use it to freely organize our folders?

DOS76 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 It comes down to this when the poll comes out make sure you vote for it I know I will be if everyone is interested and I think more than just a small vocal minority is then I'm sure it will be taken care of just all the people who voted for the bitbucket and posted asking for it make sure you show up and vote for the poll.

pasteko Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Where is the poll?? Linux poll?? Are you serious?? We are not a handful of very vocal power users, just normal users asking for a basic feature or at least a poll to measure the interest for this.

Lordmonkus Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/WPVG975 Don't worry, there will be a new poll soon on what upcoming features to work on for the immediate future of Launchbox. As for Linux, please feel free to voice and concerns in the appropriate thread and the survey linked and right now it's more to judge actual interest in it, nothing more.

Lordmonkus Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Yeah, and let's wait before we get all bent out of shape over just talking about a Linux version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattersonCZ Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Please Free Folder Mode Why is always that some nice piece of software is just few steps from perfection ? I try many Game lauchers and always there is some small things i am missing. So please include Free Folder Mode, linux version can wait, they have some nice piece of software anyway.

Lordmonkus Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 If only that one single feature would make Launchbox "perfect" for everyone, the fact of the matter is that there is still a ton of features to be added that will improve Launchbox. The good news though is Jason is constantly working on new stuff and adding it in all the time and maybe this feature will make it into the next poll which will be coming up once the 8.0 release goes official.
