Hello!

I for myself have many Tags defined which I use to mark special states of DVDs, Some extra information and so on.

The good thing with defining Tags, they can be grouped with parents obove them. - eg. I've got a tag "Buy new copy" which collects the reasons why to buy another release of this DVD (Adult-Rated available, Commentary available, special edition available, Disc defective, etc.). Since it is not vital for me to see the reason why to buy a new copy everytime, I click on the minus left to the parent tag and fold the children away, which saves much space on my monitor.

The bad thing on that feature is, that the status of the parents (if a group is visible or folded away) is not stored when DVDP is closed. After the next start of the programm all tags are unfolded (visible) which either takes a rather big frame on my monitor to see them all or takes a rather annoying work to fold them away each and every time DVDP is started.

I'd like to know, if anyone else has the same problem?

Regards, AA

I haven't expanded my tag usage to the degree that you have but I could see how it would be handy to remember the collapse state.  Same thing for box sets.  Maybe an option to remember or forget the collapse state on app shutdown?

I use a lot of tags and have run into the same problem.  It would be nice if they could be auto-collapsed the same way we can do with box sets.

As long as you don't spindle or mutilate the Tags you are OK.

I would prefer if the current state is remembered individually for each tag. I have some tag groups that I rarely use and others that I do use quite often. Having all either collapsed or expanded wouldn't help much.

Good call.  Cancel what I said.  I'd prefer for the state to be remembered.  Like you, I use some all the time and others rarely.

Only while browsing. While watching they are bound and gagged.

Excellent suggestion, Good Guy.  It would surely be handy.
