SynthMaster Preset selection is jumpy. Very distracting!

When I scroll through the presets and click on one, the preset always jumps away. I can't really see the purpose of it. Sometimes the list is repositioned so that the selected preset is in the middle of the visible part, but not always. Anyway, it is really distracting that the preset you just selected jumps away immediately.

It only happens upon the first click after scrolling the list. Subsequent clicks go without jumps.

Anybody able to confirm this?

Ah so at least it is confirmed.

Did you write to their support also?

Confirmed. I meet the same behavior on my computer.

i have the same issue. i hate that browser anyway, i miss up/down arrow keys. i know there's one on the top but i would prefer to have it right at the browser list (let keep my eyes on the highlighted preset while changing).

Yes. Use this browser is actually an insane mess.

And I hardly miss also the ability to set free tags (at least four or five) for each preset in order to qualify it and be able to find immediately in a search earea those which share the same tag(s)! When a synth provides so many presets available (hundreds!!!)... it should have at least a system of tags to allow everyone to manage one's presets at least with these tags or with keywords when even the reorganization by subcategories is totally impossible.

Synthmaster is an excellent synth... but this poor, poor, very poor system of presets management for such a huge number of presets make me use it far more rarely than it could. Because find a sound (even to modify it on my own after) among my hundreds of presets is a huge mess when there is only it's name (which doesn't talk at all) and simply a category attached.

And for these tags, there's no need to do something very complicated. It's been decades that there are C++ disarmingly simple functions to manage little dbf databases (even simply text databases in CSV) which doesn't need at all to touch the presets themselves!
