Robert Wood Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 The first drop down menu for either books, comic books, or magazines -could we have a fourth option for everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven L. Dasinger Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Can you explain a little more what you mean? At this time, there are only Books, Comic Books, and Magazines 'sections'. There is nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory Hecht Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I think that he is asking for a new media type of "other" so that his database can track things other than comics, books, or magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Wood Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 What I mean is that I would like an option so that I don't have to choose between comic, books, or magazine, so that I view all 3 at once. I.e. to be able to browse through everything with the forward/back buttons without having to filter into either comics, books, or magazines.

William Steel Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 This would also make it easier for adding batches. I just tried one with books and comics. While it took everything, once I clicked save it jumped to the book title and ignored the comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven L. Dasinger Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Mark, I just tested this out (using v1851) In my case it DID add all the scanned in items, but... the Display Items After Saving check box, doesn't work as expected. Since Books, Comic Books, and/or Magazines can't be displayed on the same screen, not all the items will be displayed. It will end up displaying the last item scanned in. And it will ONLY display that one item (actually the Title the Item is in). Example: Scan in Book 1, Comic 1 and the display after save will only show Comic Title 1. Scan in Comic 1, Book 1 and the display after save will only show Book Title 1. Scan Comic 1, Book 1, Comic 2 and the display after save will only show Comic Title 2 (Comic 1 is not displayed).

Mark J. Castaneda Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 The programming team informed me it's a "known limitation" of the software - It'll only show the ones that match the type of the top item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Steel Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I think that is why Robert is suggesting it. Plus, it would also help if someone were to buy a mix of books, comics, and magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
