Scrolling through the list of variables
Hi Chris,
This is not very important nor urgent, it's more a question for future AC updates:
I currently have over 120 variables in my current project. I had never had so many before. One of the issues I am facing is when I have to scroll through the list of variables in an action (ie. Variable Set or Variable Check). The list can only be scrolled with the very small arrows at the top and bottom of the window, and the scrolling speed is quite slow, which means it takes time to go to the last variable of the list.
I was wondering if there would be a way to optimize this? What about one of those options:
- giving the possibility to manually type in the name of a variable?
- making a list that has a scrolling bar on the right?
- giving the possibility to scroll with the mouse wheel?
- giving the posibility to scroll with the keyboard arrow keys or keyboard scroll keys?
- etc.
Or maybe there already is a way to sort it out? Thanks for your great work on AC and for your help!

You can group variables up into sub-categories using the "/" character in their names, for example:
When appearing in drop-down lists, such variables will be nested in their categories.
Oh this is such a great feature! Thanks Chris, you're the best!
I see someone else posted about the same issue this morning in the Technical Q&A forums. There might be something to do in future updates
Maybe just adding a comment on Create new variables (on rollover) to say about it?
Just a suggestion anyway.
