Custom Letter Search issue

[thatman84]

Was trying to use the xml as a way of displaying my favourite games but is not working right.

I added afew games to the bottom of my xml.

Set the 1st one (micro machines) as index =true and image = "fav"

The fav.png doesn't display and the letter search adds the letter M to the onscreen letter list before the numbers. It also adds the letters G, T, S for the other games in the list. 

Golden Axe

Turrican 

Streets of Rage

Any help understanding a way to get favourites list without creating a duplicate set of wheels would be helpful @reznnate

I tested it on PC and my thought worked on there.

must be a limitation of android. Guess it reads the index set to true then the first letter of the roms below are used to match the images in the letters folder not the image = function.

hopefully reznate will shed some light

There is no support for favorites in the Android app. I can't think of a better way to do it either. Sorry.

This is more of a question on the letter search.

if I can add a letter image (favourites.png) to letters folder then add duplicate game entries (may favourite games) to the bottom of the DB I can then have somewhat of a great workaround.

how does android letter search function integrate with the xml?

I don't recall, will need to confirm. It my be hard-coded.

Cool. It seems it's linked to "index=true" and the 1st letter of the games below show the relevant image for that letter. Until the next "index=true" is found.

May be more difficult to edit that feature if so.
