I have a Music folder (previously wifi synced) on the internal memory and a Video folder (previously USB syned) on the external memory that have a grey checkmark. I can't modify the checkmark on these folders. Also the Music folder has a subfolder that shows unchecked. a) Is the user not supposed to be able to deselect folders in Library? b) Shouldn't subfolders of checked folders show checked? |
|
|
a) greyed checkboxes are directories chosen in MMW, so it cannot be deselected. http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=10170#c36186 b) this was once agreed with Jiri. It is not necessary for now and simplest (current) implementation was chosen. |
|
|
re. a) Since this seems to be confusing a fair number of users, would it make sense to add a toast message when the user attempts to disable a greyed out checkbox? e.g. "This folder can't be disabled because it's configured for synced content." |
|
|
I believe that a message would be helpful in this case. |
|
|
re. b) users are unclear what it means when a parent directory is checked and only some of the children are. Would it make sense to visually disable the children of a checked directory c) There are still reports of users being unable to select _unchecked_ folders: - http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/posting.php?mode=reply&f=21&t=73591#pr374054 (inability to select a root folder) - http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/posting.php?mode=reply&f=21&t=73591#pr373831 |

Fixed in build 169 a) added toast with this information b) By disabling childrens, it will be mixed with disabled folders from a). I fixed it by disallowing browsing of checked folders. So only unchecked or partly checked folders can be browsed. I think it is clear now. I've added a toast message too. c) I still think that it was related to a) because there is no reason for checkboxes to not work. |

Verified 169. Re. b) I'd suggest getting rid of the toast since it's now self-explanator. Alternatively, it can be simplified as follows, but I think it's better to just get rid of it: Whole folder is included in library. Uncheck to select only specific subfolders. --> Uncheck to select only specific subfolders. Also, I'm raising to 'immediate' since a user has indicated that this functionality is no longer working in 168 (I've not confirmed this): http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=73591 |

Toast removed in build 170 I've asked for log. |
|
|
Regression in build 170 - fixed in build 171 |
|
|
User had checked whole storage and was unchecking it's subfolder. That is why it was still included in library. New implementation in build 171 will prevent it. |
|
|
mcow confirmed that this is fixed in 171. |
