I have 2000+ roms in my roms\arcade directory, and every time I set up a new arcade machine, I have to scroll down from the top of the list to find the next game. This is torture for my memory. 🤪 Can we make the ROM selection menu remember the scroll bar position when I last closed it?

Anyway,Thanks a lot for your help and hard work! 🤩

I can add this. I’m used to using the search bar myself.

Thank you so much @macdguy. You always been my hero 😅

The search function is also useful, but it has a slight flaw. First, it is retrieved by matching letters at any position in the ROM name; then, if TU can identify the game, the load list displays not the ROM but the full name of the game (this feature is actually my favorite feature).

But this caused a trouble, e.g I search for “x”, and I expected to see games whose first letter in the ROM name is x, but what actually appeared were all games with the letter x in their ROM names, and the full names of the games displayed did not necessarily include x.What I do is actually add games one by one in a very long list, and I can’t narrow down the target range through search function.

I believe the scrollbar position restoration feature is a lifesaver for those of us with long lists. 🥳

I second. Also find it annoying when adding NES to carts that every time it opens into Arcade instead of NEStopia like I was in last. Good suggestion.

I really admire your ability to organize hundreds of arcades in your F&A Condo in an orderly manner. What’s the secret? I originally hoped to organize FBneo roms in categories in Condo, but now I have given up. 😂
