Nobody every gave me a direct answer each time i asked if there was a limit to the amount of modules i can use in my toolbox/search. Now often when im using SM and use the search i get the message -

An Attempt was made to access an unnamed file past its end.

Jorge and malc on the search please make it so theres arrows after a certain amount of pages on the search and not 17 dots, i think that has something to do with it. I guess i could use a work around and save examples filled with modules but that is not really how i want to use SM and it takes more work than it should do. I think that getting the search/toolbox working perfectly is one of the main things as it is the center of SM basically. Please don't forget about this as it will just come back in the future when there is more examples ect.

Same happens to me , but only in the first search of every SM session. on second search and so on it works ok. Also, it happens to when i try a slection by conector type, first time only too.

It's starting to be a nightmare to find a module when you have lots of them The only Solution I can see it's to allow SubFolders, ie a Custom Section "Custom" and inside there allow the user to create subdirs: Osc, effects,filters,etc

Yeah thats exactly the same as it is for me, i should have described it better 🙂 I don't get any crash from it but if i close the app after it happens i get the SM bug report screen each time. And i also get that often if clicking/overdrive happens then i close. unkargherth how many pages do you have in your search/toolbox? I have 17 right now and im wondering whats going to happen if i start adding any more.

only seven pages

Bump, Make a better system than the dots currently being used, i always get some message now and also the dots go off the side if i dont stretch the search bigger than i want it to be. I think maybe have 10 dots max and two arrows each side to go to the next 10 or back 10. Thanks 🙂
