sasquatch Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I have 4 Platform Categories. Arcade / Computers / Consoles / Handhelds. I have assigned each system to a category but when I click on the small + icon to the left of "Handhelds" it does not list the systems. All the games show on the right, but I would like them seperated into ds, gba and psp. The other categories will all show a list of systems included when clicking on the +. What have I missed? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Click on the dropdown top left and switch it to platforms, then right click the platform that is missing and choose edit, in that window that opens there should be a dropdown to choose what category it should be in, select handhelds.

sasquatch Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 I've done that but still won't show in Handheld section. The games do but not the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Hmm, then i'm confused. My advice would be to delete those handheld platforms and re-import them, this will only take a couple of minutes as you can uncheck all the media downloads as you already have it all.

sasquatch Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Thanks, I'll give it a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasquatch Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Same result. I created a new category and added the systems to that successfully......but.....I couldn't name it Handhelds as there was already a category named that and I'm unable to delete it.

neil9000 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 OK now I'm even more confused, you are correct there is already a platform category called handhelds and that is what you should be adding those systems to. Ok You have a handhelds2 there now with all your handhelds??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasquatch Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 That's right. Adding them to "Handhelds" and no systems will be listed but all roms will show. Adding them to Handhelds2 and all works fine. There is no option to delete the original "Handhelds category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK close Launchbox, and go to Launchbox/data and delete those .xml from there. you can not delete that category, the handheld category is built in, you can make and rename others but can not remove it.
