    DVDFab (UI/General) Windows Standard Column Behavior

    I would like to see the "Ripper" general interface have the Title Bar comply with the Windows Standard Column behavior. In particular, each column has a heading, when you double click on a header it should sort alphabetically A-Z, double click again it should change the order from Z-A. You could make it even more useful than Microsoft if you also added a manual movement feature like Netflix uses where you could literally click, hold, drag & drop in the order you wanted. Secondly. the Title bar has each column separated by a vertical bar. (which in the DVDFAB interface has the selection sensitivity set too low, you could expand it 2 or 3 more pixels either side so the selection arrow wasn't so sensitive), if you double-click the vertical bar, the column should expand to a "fit to width" paradigm. Finally, allow the "smart" content indicator to show in the drop down fields when there is more than one option. In other words, using the Audio column as an example, if there is only one choice, leave it as it is now, but if there are multiple choices (e.g. several possible audio track configurations possible), have a small indicator appear in the upper right corner of the combo box showing the user there are multiple selections. It will make it easier at a glance to know when there are audio and subtitle possibilities.

    The DVD or Blu-ray sorce separated by Main Title and Other Title in list.
    so it is difficult to sort by title name.

    "Double-click the vertical bar, the column should expand to a "fit to width" paradigm. " We will fixe it as soon as possible, thank you for your feedback!

    You mean, for example: There are six audio tracks, the upper right corner of the display in the Combobox "6", then do not drop down Combobox to know the current title has six audio tracks. Please see a attachment.

      Column behavior

      Well, the GUI had a number of columns. Each column has a title at the top. To model the GUI after a standard Windows interface, clicking on ANY title should sort the entire matrix as presented based on an alphabetic sort of that column's data and clicking a second time sorts it in reverse order. So, I am not sure what you mean by a conflict in "Main Title" versus "Other Title". If you clicked on "Main Title" it would sort the matrix by Main Title. If you clicked on "Other Title" it would sort it by Other Title. The matrix is sorted by whatever column title you click on even if it's Runtime, Chapter, Audio, Subtitle. (e.g. the behavior should emulate Windows Explorer or Microsoft Excel).

      The graphic with the number is great, yes, that is what I meant. It's not a big deal, just helpful when using the interface.
