Title: Minor quirk - Taking user back to loaded dat folder
Post by: johnsanc on 02 August 2015, 13:43

I noticed that clrmamepro always tends to take the user back to whatever folder contains the loaded DAT after any action with the profiler. For example I organize my DATs by type and system, so I have nested folders like "Console -> Nintendo - NES".

Lets say I want to add a few new DATs, so I navigate to the respective folder in the cmpro left nav, and drop it in. However as soon as thats done it takes me back to whatever folder contains the currently loaded dat. Is this intentional to take the user away from the last place they navigated to after they add a dat?

most likely not intentional. I will look at it in the near future.

Well, I had a look at it and it is intentional ;-)
Everytime the tree/list is regenerated it tries to automatically navigate to the last used datfile...otherwise you always end at tree root...which is also not a good idea...

maybe I can have a look if I can redefine the "last used" to be either the last loaded or the one which was last used in an action (added, renamed)
