Hello,

in 2.4.0 there was an easy way to access the box set content from the general info window of the box set case and vice versa. In 3.0.1 this feature is missing   

For the wishlist:
In collection listing sorted by title all box set contents are below the box set case. perhaps a config option  would be nice to sort all contents by title.

Regards
O. Müller

I'd like to have this back as well. (Ideally the drop-down list, if it's done similar as before, would be sorted by Sort Title.)

Yup, I also miss this, but only because it was there. You DO see the box set contents in the tab lists, and it's not more work to choose them from there.

Even if you don't set the box sets to "auto expand", you only have to click once on the box set (+) (you also had to click once on the down arrow in the general window) and then once on the appearing entry (same in the drop down) to get to the child profile.

The sort title works the same in both, too.

so I can understand the removal, since it was the exact same feature available at two equally easy accessible positions on the screen.

I don't need it back.

I suppose you mean the title list...? If not, what/where is the tab list?

Well, it is useful when you have filtered the list, so that maybe only one or two films of a Box Set are shown, without the parent. In that case, in 2.4/2.5, you could still switch to the parent using that dropdown arrow; which would clear the filter, of course.

Yes, indeed. That's the list the tabs "All", "Owned", "Ordered" and "Wishlist" are connected with.

That's right. The "backwards search" isn't available anymore. This only is of importance if you actually have box sets with completely different movies contained (no series and such), but still, that's a feature we used to have and now don't.

Ok, changed my mind, want it back as it was before

Yes, indeed, used to have it, now we don't. I could live with not having it, but would still like to have it back (if only for sentimental reasons )

Hmmm, now I wonder what happened between the previous paragraph and this one...
