cleverest Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 This only happens in my large (43k games) collection, anytime I click those arrows for the drop-down...launchbox stops responding, have to end task and it's messy, takes awhile to close out...every time... I know I must have some huge Publisher and Developer lists and that's what crashing it, but I'm wondering what I can do to fix/reset this? ....Some way perhaps to have LaunchBox recreate those so I can start using the drop-downs?...I want this functionality to work to compare similar company names, see what it there, get rid of dupes, and to organize things better. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jophran Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) This happens to me also, my collection Is smaller (15k games), for now I just avoid using the list and just write the text but would be nice if it could be fixed.

cleverest Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 @Jason Carr - Sorry to tag you like this, just wondering if anything can be done....would love to see a SERIES/GENRE/DEVELOPER overhaul, but I'd be happy with this just not crashing when clicking the drop down...any fix I can try to correct this? Thanks Jason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Yeah, I am aware of this. It's not crashed in that scenario, it just takes a long time to load up the list. Windows doesn't have a good multi-select drop down control, unfortunately, which is the reason for the issue. It is on my list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is on my list. Thanks. It's only those two categories. I have many in GENRE and SERIES too, but I guess those others are considerably larger...it actually shows not responding AND turns whited out for me if I let it sit (eventually) or click anything, and becomes difficult to end task away, so I think it IS actually crashing in my case. Or it's more or less the same result, lol...Thanks for having it on the TO DO list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 No, it's not actually crashing. It will come back eventually if you just wait long enough. That's pretty much irrelevant though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
