May 23, 20251 yr v25.6.3.4378 Type "X-Me" in the Find bar, the top return should be "X-Men (1st Series)", but I wouldn't know it, since the top entry is not showing. It is there, since if I down arrow, it selects "X-Men (2nd Series)", and if I then up arrow, it selects "X-Men (1st Series)"
May 23, 20251 yr No. This is a new feature. The items that show up in the list are based on relevance that is aimed at showing the most recent and/or most accessed titles (they are other factors affecting the items listed). If you want a strict (CB) alphabetical order you can use the Title window (CTRL+T or click on the folder in the top right corner). And, no, there is no option to turn this feature off.
May 23, 20251 yr Author I have noticed the new feature, and this is probably a side effect of the new feature. But, because you think I am describing the new feature, you are not paying attention to problem I am describing. The top of the drop-down list is missing. The first entry on the list is not visible. Let me include a larger snippet, with my mouse hovering over the scroll bar. I have typed "x-me" and the list has populated. The details for "X-Men (1st Series)" are shown under the drop-down list, so that title must be the highlighted first entry in the list. But, you can't see it on the top of the list. Notice that the scroll bar on the right is showing the down button on the bottom, but not the up button on the top. The first entry in the list is not showing. If I down arrow, it highlights the visible "X-Men (2nd Series)" and the details under the list reflect that highlight. If I then up arrow, I can no longer see what is selected, but the details under the list revert to "X-Men (1st Series)"
May 23, 20251 yr Ah, I see. That better displays the problem. Unfortunately, I can't recreate it in my database.
May 23, 20251 yr Correct. The first line is high-lighted/selected and that title is the one with information at the bottom on the list. As opposed to yours where the bottom of the list has information about a title that is not displayed in the list (and this 'not displayed' title is high-lighted).
May 25, 20251 yr Just tried this, and only half of the "X-Men (1st Series) shows up (along with half of the up arrow.) I haven't done anything to my setup, and I don't think any automatic Windows updates have changed things in the past few weeks.
May 27, 20251 yr Author Interesting. We appear to have different font sizes, but the visible top of the drop down box appears to be clipped by the toolbar on the top of the ComicBase window.

Probably resolution on my screen. 34" monitor, resolution 2560x1440. Problem seems to have been fixed with the latest build, 4488. Didn't think to check on my other monitor, 27" 1920x1080. I see the top line, but it's slightly clipped.
May 29, 20251 yr Author upgraded to 4488. The drop-down now properly starts with the first row, and being aligned starting under the toolbar on the top of the ComicBase window. Thank you.
