Custom Rating Label cannot be changed back to default

Post by jkm »

In 1.11.5, custom Rating Labels can be assigned, but they cannot be "unassigned" and subsequent edits require a restart.

There are two bugs:

:bug: Once a Rating Label has been edited, the default text will no longer be accepted.

:bug: When a Rating Label has been edited, some UI elements update immediately, but others require a restart.


Steps to reproduce:

Start with defaults.

0. Observe default label for 1-star is Poor
1. Set label for 1-star to Bad
2. Click OK
3. Observe that on Rating overlay in browser, 1=Bad, but on menu Metadata->Set Rating, 1=Poor :bug: Restart required
4. Restart app
5. Observe that on menu Metadata->Set Rating, 1=Bad (now correct after restart)
6. Set label for 1-star to Poor (this is setting it back to default)
7. Click OK
8. Check Tools->Settings:Rating Labels
9. In the dialog, 1 is still set to Bad. The value Poor is not accepted, and will not be saved. :bug:

The only way to reset rating labels to the default values is to manually edit or delete the ratingLabel line in the INI file.

Yes, changing rating/color labels need restart...

About the bug, you are able to reproduce each time?

But only partially. User should be warned, like with changing theme.
