Info menu order change - 29/07/2002 06:26
I notice that 2.0b13 has changed the order of the Info menu. Previously, the items were in the order that the "Info" remote button cycled them, with the current mode highlighted. I liked this; it was easy to navigate to the desired mode without looking.
Now they're in alphabetical order, and I can't work out any system to what's highlighted. This means I need to look at the menu to change the info to what I want (or use the remote).
I think this might be related to
Fixed: Visuals "by name" not alpha sorted (#1772)
While I like the new arrangement of Visuals/By Name, I don't think that alpha-sorting the Info modes is a good idea, perhaps because there are only six, so jumping by first letter is less useful there. Is it possible to get the old info behaviour back without losing the fix for the visuals menu?
BTW, thanks for the change to the timezone menu to allow jumping by first letter, and remembering previous selection. I didn't see the latter mentioned in the release notes, but it's appreciated.
