Hello Chums...

...!

FS 2004:

Having accumulated zillions (and zillions) of objects in my Add-on Scenery Library, is there a magic way of scrolling the "Move up/Move down" selected objects quickly, (key combination), without having to constantly click in the Scenery Menu to slowly "move" it, up/down, click by click, with the Mouse...which takes forever...and ever!..... Cry

...!

This is often necessary to arrange the Add-on objects in the correct order, from top to bottom of the list.

Any ideas Chums?... Wink

...!

Paul...

...!

P.S. My Library is generally located in the smallest room in the house... Wink

Click on the up/down button once, then hold down the u/d key and they will fly.

cheers,

Don't argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Ta Joe....

But that only scrolls the "highlight" up and down, not move the actual selected "object" up and down the Menu, quickly, to rearrange its position in the List.

It works for me, moves the highlighted object up and/or down.

Nope....

...!

In my FS 2004 Library it only moves the object one click of the Mouse each time.
It takes a zillion clicks of the Mouse to get an object to the top/bottom of the list!

Maybe I'm missing something...or it only works with FSX?

Paul....

...!

Maybe that's the reason this was invented?....

Try condensing your scenery by area;

ADDON SCENERY / NORTH AMERICA ... and put ALL the .bgl's for airports in NA into the scenery folder, and all the textures in the texture folder.

Addon Scenery / South America

.. / europe

..... do it pretty much by continent.

(granted you loose your ability to turn on / off individual airports/LOD's/ MESH's and such, but it will clean EVERYTHING up a bit faster.)

Click on the up/down button once with the mouse, then hold down the "u" or "d" key on the keyboard
and they will fly.

Maybe I wasn't very clear, my apologies.
