Post by NeXuS »

Feature Request :
Button to move the games in the list up or down to sort them by myself.

solution: use text editor and move sections around manually

apart from adding dozens of games manually to ScummVM quite slowly and moving the entries up and down, do you actually play the games now and then too? :)

Feature requests do not belong on the forum, but rather on our SF.net feature request tracker!

Furthermore, we had similar requests, and I always rejected them, and will do so again in the future.

Basically, it boils down to what cleam said. We want to provide a simple, easy to use interface for people playing graphic adventures supported by ScummVM. The easiest route to that is allowing people to add games with as few clicks as possible, remove them, and edit their settings. Period. Games are sorted in alphabetical order, as you'd expect to. If you are confused because "Monkey Island 2" is found under "T" (like I am sometimes) because of the starting "The", the easy solution is to edit the description (which you can do when you add the game the first time around, BTW).
