Cannot scroll imported variants

[reidgw]

Hey folks,

I installed Diylc without a hitch. I imported variants as per instructions found on this board. I now have 52 Film Caps listed but when I try to scroll them to choose one the menu simply closes. I can use the arrow keys to blindly select items off the bottom of the menu so I know they are there. Is there a limit to the number of variants one can have at one time? I'm running Windows 10 fully updated.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Love the program and want to make this work! Thanks.

I am not sure what you mean by scroll them?
Using a mouse scroll wheel does not work.

You just pick one with a mouse left click and then go add it to your drawing space

Thanks for the reply.I'll tryto explain better. In the attached image, you can see that I have 52 film caps available to choose from and the list runs right off the bottom of the screen, ending at Jupiter .002/600V

I cannot access any of the caps lower down on that list. 11 the caps that were imported are in the menu but I cannot see them.

I can make a short video if that would help.

Thanks!

At the risk of sounding condescending...
Have you tried rebooting?

 Hehe. Not condescending at all. I worked in IT for decades and asked the same thing countless times. I've also been around long enough to know that even a "professional" like me can overlook simple solutions.

 I have rebooted, reinstalled, removed all files manually and re-imported. The pc also has a fresh install of Win 10. I'm wondering if it could be an issue with java. I'll post a short video tomorrow to better demonstrate what's going on.

How about if you hilight one of the menu items and go through the list using the down arrow key?

I'd suggest asking for help on bancika's git-hub page:

The first thing I see in your screen shot is that you have added all the caps twice
So your list is way longer than it is supposed to be
I only count 26 variants on my PC

Go through your list and delete all the duplicates


This is what it looks like on my PC

In my panic over the inability to see the entire list, I missed that very obvious detail! Oddly enough, I couldn't delete just one of the duplicates - highlighting one for deletion selected both. So I wound up just deleting the config.xml and letting it create a new default one.

My original question is moot as the entire list now fits on the screen. Thank you for your patience with this old fool. And hey, at least it wasn't a "reboot" fix! 

Thanks, folks. I appreciate you taking the time.

Hitting the small trash can next to each variant did not work?

Well, it sort of worked. When I hit the trash can next to one, the duplicate was selected also. Deleting one removed both copies.
