Retroid84 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Hi, i don't know if this is a bug or a new setting i need to change but whenever i delete a game or make edits to one like add additional applications etc it then goes back to the top of the game list starting at the beginning. Whenever i would delete games etc before it would keep its position in the game list, now when i am sorting through my platforms i have to keep scrolling back down to where i was but when you are trying to trim a collection of thousands of games it is too time consuming to delete one game, scroll from the top of the game list back to where i was, delete another just to repeat it over and over. I reverted back to a previous version which stops doing it however i don't want to be on an old version forever so i updated to the new official version and it is still doing it....anyone have any tips or advice? Much appreciated in advance! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobix86 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Second this, happens on both the new and old theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Edits should not be reverting back to the top (they don't in my testing at least). Deletes are currently though. I don't see it as much of an issues for deletions, but I can see how it would be jarring for edits. Can you guys confirm that edits are sending you to the top of the list? I can't seem to replicate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobix86 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Well i too already reverted to the older version, i can confirm what you said about deletions, but i don't think i tried to edit a game. For me it actually is an issue for deletions as i'm currently sorting trough the mame 0.216 romset (about 5.5k games as i remember? excluding non-working ofcourse), and deleting anything i already have in the arcade classics section, so i do a lot of deletions.

I'm currently going through my Arcade list and hiding/editing, and it makes it very painful compared to before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroid84 Posted January 8, 2020 Author Share Posted January 8, 2020 @Jason CarrSorry yes it is when i delete files and also when i bulk edit as drw4013 said above^ It is a massive pain in the butt because i am trimming my collections so deleting thousands of games in launchbox itself, having to scroll down and find where i was among thousands of games every time i delete even just one of them is a massive issue ha don't know how you can think otherwise? Previous versions didn't do this it is only recently so is it reversible? It has put a hold on me trimming anything for now as it is taking 2 - 3 times as long as it did before this started happening. Many thanks in advance.

DOS76 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Well most people don't add 1000s of games only to delete them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example: My screen shows 4 rows of games. If I edit a game in the bottom row, when I close the edit. That bottom row is now the top row.

I just edited a single game in LB 10.9, in the middle of my Arcade list, simply checking the "Hide" box. Same result as Bulk Editing - Jumped all the way back up to the top row. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you don't have anything selected to return you to it goes to the top of the list. To my knowledge that behavior is intended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been auditing my collection for the past few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No in prior versions this did not happen. Just tested on 10.7 and it stays in place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroid84 Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Found a small work around, when you delete a game as soon as you press on the last "yes" button to delete it, if you quickly press straight onto the game next to it or another game before the screen dims. When it stops dimming it won't go back to the top of the list. Sometimes doesn't work if the timing isn't right but a temp solution that helps a bit at least.

Jason Carr Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 In the latest beta I added the option to turn off dynamic box sizing, which should revert this functionality to 10.7. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
