Question on shortlists

BIG17EASY · 07-09-2015, 11:28 AM

OK, possibly silly question. I've been tracking players with multiple shortlists (one of my fave new features in 16) and got to a point last night in my one leagues where I needed to remove some players from one of my shortlists. The problem is, some of them are on multiple shortlists, but I only wanted to remove them from one shortlist, not all. I couldn't seem to find a way to remove a player from one shortlist without removing him from all shortlists he's on. Is this possible? If it's not, I'll go post this in the suggestions thread for 17, if it's not there already.

Thanks.

Removing from one removes from all, no way around it that I have found. Only thing to do is remove and then add back to the tabs you want them to still be on. Hopefully in future versions removal from individual lists will be added.

Thanks, Sweed. I figured this was the case. Not a huge deal, but a couple unnecessary steps, if you ask me.

Just a related point; If you delete a shortlist it doesn't remove the players from other shortlists. This is handy because when I am talking trade with someone I create a shortlist to show all players we are talking about. When the dealing is done I just delete the shortlist.

Multiple shortlists is great, I've been wanting it for several versions. If in the future we could remove a player from an individual shortlist that would be nice.

It would also be nice if lists of players could optionally display which shortlists they're on.
