Session bug? Session added to the bottom instead of the top

Post by MedBooster »

I added a session , couldn't find it, then I noticed it was at the very bottom, instead of being at the very top as usual.

Is this a bug?

I have a loooot of sessions, so maybe that's why?

Once I open it again from the bottom, it appears on the top again as usual though

Hello MedBooster,

I believe this is happening because the sessions are ordered from most recently used to the oldest one.
When you create a new session - at first it has never been used - and as such goes at the bottom of the list.

Kind regards,

that didn't use to be the case! It doesn't make any sense... it is recently used, because you made it and you are in it!
This makes it much more difficult to overwrite the session you're in
Previously you were able to just activate session save, press enter , confirm . Now you have to go to the very bottom one to overwrite it

This changed when I updated from 364 - 365
Could you maybe label this as an urgent fix...

Imagine you have 1000 sessions, are you supposed to scroll all the way to the bottom to open the last session you saved? Especially when there's no search bar yet...

btw. what is the max session quantity limit?

Hello MedBooster,

I was not aware that this changed between 364 and 365 - I will check with our devs to see if this was intentional or not - and if not - to get it restored to how it was in 364!

Kind regards,
Stefan

So was it a bug?
At first I started questioning myself, but the more I've been using sessions in the new build the more I've realised that it used to be much better when creating, or overwriting a session with another would bring it to the top...

I am not sure how it is possible, because as far as I know there is not an update yet,
but this seems to be working properly at the moment
When I add a new session it appears at the top, not the bottom. Weird... hmm

Also, if you could find out what the maximum amount of sessions you can store is, that would be nice, I've been wondering about that for a while now.

Hello MedBooster,

Build 366 was released on 12 Dec (6 days after my previous post) - so that's how the issue got fixed for you :)

Kind regards,
Stefan
