Content

Following the recent update, several people reported not liking how the new dropdowns work. Context : I introduced them in order to facilitate navigation without requiring the use of the scrollbars but obviously the behavior is counter-intuitive for all those accustomed to using mouse scrolling. 

To remedy the situation, I just released a new version (moulinette core 10.5.0) which allows to choose the drop-down list mode in the configuration. I take this opportunity to poll if some of you like the new drop-down lists. Otherwise, I'll probably remove them completely.

Which drop-down list mode do you prefer?

I think the main issue with autoscrolling is that it depends a lot on how many packs you have for a particular artist. My local moulinette folder has close to 200 packs for certain artists and at that point the autoscroll is completely unusable.

Thank you for your feedback! The funny thing is that it was inspired by CSS Tricks for long dropdowns : https://css-tricks.com/examples/LongDropdowns/ But I agree that with very long lists, it's very hard to select something. During my tests, I had to use UP/DOWN keys when I missed the right entry.

2026-09-05 17:00 i liked the static nature of the new lists, but now I don't see any packs from my patreons where yesterday, it was impossible to scroll, but the packs were visible. I have downloaded the update in forge and rebooted and still has the same result-- I see no content now, but I like how the dropdown lists work now. what do i need to do to get the packs to show?

I love how fast and responsive the auto scrolling is, and while it was surprising at first, I got accustomed to it very quickly. Please do not remove it :D Make default behaviour, well, default, if you think that's the best, but please do not remove auto-scrolling option :)

I think it depends on HOW much content you have access to. If you have access to just a few Patreons the old version does its job. But after a reasonable amount of content, you really get overwhelmed by the time you need to find the stuff you are looking for. I really like the new version better.

This is not due to the new lists. It's probably because Moulinette is not linked to your Patreon account anymore. Let me know if you need further assistance for this.

Thank you for your feedback! 21% seem to prefer the auto-scrolling lists. If this is the case, I'll definitively keep them and continue to support them.

Thank you Ben! It really helps to have different perspectives and feedbacks from end-users.
