When on the Hold Management screen, you can press Ctrl-<letter> to jump to holds beginning with that letter. But this doesn't work as expected some of the time.

Expected: pressing Ctrl-T jumps to the holds beginning with T.

Actual: pressing Ctrl-T jumps to the holds beginning with "The" no matter where they are sorted in the list. For example, for me it jumps to "The Adventure of Nevada Smith" which is sorted with the A-holds.

Similarly, pressing Ctrl-Q doesn't jump to "A Quiet Place".

I have reported the problem with the "t" a long time ago already.

Another character that doesn't work is "*".

Yes, there is a hold "*Slayers End*'

Best wishes,

Referencing the link (thank you), does this mean these issues are fixed in 5.0.2.1004+?

It seems to be fixed in 5.1.0.1007, where Ctrl-letter ignores 'A' and 'The'.

The only letter I didn't test was X, as no published hold starts with X.

It doesn't have to be a published hold to go in the list, though. Either make a hold that starts with X or download "Xindaris' First Hold" from the architecture forum.

I just tested in 5.0.1.6060 and Control-X works in that. Someone with access to the beta versions may want to test to make sure it didn't somehow break, though.

Confirming that in 5.1.0.6462:

-Control-Q jumps to A Quiet Place
-Control-T does not jump to The Adventures of Nevada Smith, but rather Tacker Trilogy
-Control-X did not mysteriously break, and jumps to Xindaris' First Hold.
