*-file-list-* broken?

Post by NotNull »

'CTRL + click' on child-file-list-1: in the searchbar does not come up with the slot-editor.
'CTRL + click' on childfilelist1: does.

Same for the rest of the "family": parent-.. , sibling-...


EDIT: v1346a

I'll add child-file-list-1: variants.
Thank you for the suggestion!

I've also noticed F2 is bringing up the advanced search after the slot editor.
This will be fixed in the next alpha update.

From (unreliable) memory, this used to work. Documentation thinks it should too:

child-file-list-5:

child-file-list-7:
child-file-list-8:
child-file-list-9:

Search for folders that contain a file or folder from the specified file list slot.
Hold down Ctrl and click the child-file-list-x: text in the search box to edit the file list slot.

Examples:
child-file-list-0:
Works as expected without the hyphens, doesn't with hyphens

I don't think it's ever worked with hyphens from looking at the code.

I have fixed it so it will work in the next alpha update.
I'll have an update soon.

Everything 1.5.0.1347a fixes an issue with F2 showing the advanced search after opening the slot editor.

Ctrl + click on child-file-list-1: should now open the file list slot editor.
