[jamdb-user] 0.9.6 "show all" problem

[Matthias S. <ms...@sc...>]

Hi Marc,

if i search for an artist and afterwards want to "show all" artists, 
this ends up with no effect! I have to "reset" first and then click on 
"show all" to get the full list.

Even if i delete my find query manually out of the find field, i end up 
with the result of the search query and not with all artists

tia,

Matthias

Perhaps the problem is not clear:

I do not want to "View" the result of the search via "Play / View result 
of "band"" This works fine.

Als long as anything is in the find box after a search, the "show all" 
button does not work. The same in 0.9.7-devel as in 0.9.6

Any solution to this problem?

OK. Now I understand. I was somewhat confused because I do not
use this feature ;-)

I tested it:

As it is now you have to [reset] first and then you can press [show all]
again to see really everything.

I have changed that behavior in cvs so that the [show all] does a
[reset] before. So then pressing [show all] will also reset your
search form.

Is that increased usability then?

Definitely! I use this quite often, so this is much easier now.
Thank you.

So why don't you switch off this feature?

Switch off what feature?

I often use [show all]
And when this now works as you described, this is much easier, because i 
save one click on every use ;-))
So usability is increased!

I mean why don't you set
define("SHOW_ALL_MODE", "yes");

or even do not set it (defaults to yes)

then you always see all of your artists, when searching for nothing.

Ahhhh ok. Actually i never tried that!
I thought this option toggles only the startup mode of JamDB.

Now [reset] works for me fine.
But [show all] definiteley looks better! ;-)

Thanks for your help.

ACK

I removed the [reset] button and therefore the [show all] button
will always be there to reset the form *and* show all artists.

For people who have SHOW_ALL_MODE enabled this is just a rename of
the [reset] button (default behavior)

And for those who have disabled it: IMHO It does not make much sense to
only [reset] the form and show *no* artists if you have loaded them
just before. So you can use the [show all] button to reset the form
and show everything or search for something else by hitting the find
button. 

BTW: hitting the find button with no search query or "added last"
statement you will get into the same situation as if you just logged
in.
