The problem is not the actual physical location of the element but the graphical display of the element after extensive editing.
That's how I understood it when I suggested to Undo.

I realize now a screenshot would be helpful which I do not have.
OK; screenshots are great.

Yes, we made some improvements in late 2014 to make the Content Outline more responsive, particularly for people who have large, flat folders, using a system of proxies.  It works quite well, except when it gets tangled up.  Things can get get misplaced.

It appears that you can cause the proxies to flushed and rebuilt from scratch by commanding an Undo or Redo operation.  For example, delete a bookmark (I would recommend one which is not misplaced), and then click in the menu: Edit > Undo.  The deleted bookmark should come back and all bookmarks should move into their proper places.

I would be interested to know whether or not that works.  Also, because these misplacements occur only very rarely for me, if you vaguely know how to reproduce it, I'd appreciate that information.  Even better would be if you could send us the .bkmslf document which exhibits the issue.  Sending it via our Trouble Zipper (menu > Help > Trouble Zipper) might include additional helpful information.

I realize now a screenshot would be helpful which I do not have.  Next time I will provide a screenshot showing the graphical corruption.


Thank you,

How to Refresh Bookmacster Content Window

When I am editing bookmarks inside Bookmacster the content window can be corrupted with misplaced elements.  For example, if I have the following folders Entertainment with Books as a subfolder and Games with WoW as a subfolder the content from the subfolder will be displayed in the wrong subfolder.

Is there way to refresh the content window whilst editing?
