Can't Rename WatchList Names

Postby OldGuyWalking » Tue Nov 03, 2015 9:12 pm

I could not rename WatchList names using the Rename option in the Group tab. Name would revert back to its original name once I hit the Enter key.

Minor issue - When adding a new WatchList item the user has to click on the "New Watch" field in the dialog box before they can begin typing.

So my workaround on this was to go in and do a one time tweak to the watchlist names stored in the .nbi file. My reason for changing the 50+ names I'd created was to add a prefix to the watchlist name. i.e. tv.SomeShowName1, tv.SomeShowName2, eb.MyFaveBook, ab.SomeAudiobook, mo.IndieMovie, etc. That way I can keep them "grouped". I'm up to about 61 at the moment but will be adding more. Very useful feature.

Now, of course, when I create a new watchlist I'm careful to make sure I add the prefix upfront. :D
