Title: sort by description
Post by: jaw9170 on 12 July 2020, 18:42

Hi,

Is there a way to sort the set information alphabetically by description and nor by set name?

Thanks,
Jason

Do you mean the scan results tree or the actual setinformation window. There you actually have a checkbox to switch between set name and description. So what exactly do you want to get sorted by description?

Thanks Roman.

When you switch to set name, the description disappears.  Is there any way to sort by set name and keep the description?

Also, is there any way to hide sets that do not have an associated ROM set?  The screenshot also shows three games that I have but those do not have ROMs in their sets, thus showing as an issue in the scanner.

The switch indeed switches to and sorts by description. There is currently no option to show setnames and sort by description or vice versa.

Well, a set is a collection of roms and/or samples and/or chds. So there are e.g. sets which only consists out of chds. If you don‘t have the chd, the set appears as missing. Even when you dont scan for chds since that switch would produce the missing chd message not the missing set message. You can fool cmpro if you create an empty folder for the chd to avoid missing set messages for chd only sets.
