Add ability to page / jump to letter
I tried out the latest automated build for rpi3 and cam across a missing usability features that would make nice enhancements.
If you have a large list of games, it takes quite a while to scroll through the list. It appears R2/L2 are mapped to switch between systems. It would be nice to use L1/R1 for paging up/down in the game list view like it does in emulation station.
Also it would be nice to have similar functionality in emulation station where you can jump to a letter.
Finally, it would be nice if when you exited a game that you would be back to the system with the game you were playing highlighted. Currently if you are playing a game that begins with a Z and exit, you will be all the way back at the top of the game list when the front end returns.
Page up/down has just been added and is mapped to L2/PageUp and R2/PageDown.
Remembering the launched game was fixed earlier, I just forgot to update this issue (sorry).
All that's left is the letter jump feature.
Letter jump is now available via Alt + [letter], but there's no UI for it yet.
Did the letter jump feature get removed or broken at some point?
I agree for large collections this would be a really helpful feature which I always used in EmulationStation. I just saw this post and tried the "Alt + Letter" on my keyboard but it did not seem to work.
Yes, the letter jump was temporarily removed after a large set of changes, then I started working on other parts and in the end it wasn't re-added. Will see if I can update it when I have some time.
