Lots of conditions in filter
Hello The Bat! BetaList, Found a small problem, If I go into the Sorting Office and create a new incoming filter, and add as many conditions so that I get a scroll-bar at the right. Now start filling in and changing the different fields. The fields will at first only jump around so that you have to scroll to find them, but if you fill all the conditions with text and then go and change the type or function of the condition at the bottom the editor will hang and everything will jump around for a bit. Is this a known problem? I've not created long filters before. -- /Fredrik The Bat! 3.99.3 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 Current beta is 3.99.06 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Haven't seen any kind of jumping though... The long time is caused by the jumping, if you look closely. Or have enough conditions. Try creating a filter with 100 conditions, it makes the problem very obvious. I have started converting my filters to contains any of, which is a tedious work, because you have to wait seconds to minutes for every single conversion (by this I don't mean the filter but the conditions). -- Cheers, Thomas.
