I noticed that since V3.09 in thumbnail view there are small circles on the right side instead of the letters of the alphabet. I'm using an iPad mini with Retina display. I prefer the alphabet for fast scrolling through my database. ;D

Can someone confirm that this is a bug that will be fixed in a new version?

From a different thread:
The circles are technically correct, since the thumbnail view is not actually ordered in any way.
The alphabet will fail on views like "Recent" that is ordered by date.
Quite a few people have complained about this, so I`ll add it back in until a better solution is ready.

That's not true: the views like Album and Artist are ordered by Album name and Artist name, even if there are shown by a large thumbnail.
How can you say that? You give people 3 options to view Artists and Albums and state that the third option (large thumbnails) means they're not ordered in any way?
I agree with the Recent part.

The views are ordered by whatever they are specified as in MC.
If you use the default views, then yes, these two views are ordered alphabetically by default.
There is nothing to prevent you from changing the ordering of the views in MC though. If you change the album view to sort from Z-A, it will break the index bar that expects an A-Z ordering.
The list and imagelist view modes are different. They are actually ordered and grouped manually in JRemote. This was done in order to group the results into sections with headers. The thumbnail view does not have those sections.
If you look at the "recent" view it displays correctly in thumbail view mode, but the list and imagelist modes do not. They are grouped alphabetically even though the original list is ordered by date.
The previous implementation of the thumbnail view would work correctly if the list was sorted alphabetically, this is the solution I am reverting back to.
The current order/grouping in JRemote is artificial and subject to break depending on what view you are using.
In the future I plan to come up with a better sorting, but it will require some changes to the web service.

Thanks for the explanation.
Still, I was very happy with the way things worked before 3.09.

Back in JRemote 3.10: the A-Z in thumbnail view: thank you very much!

Want to know: is this problem solved in 3.10?
Am afraid of updating, I still use the 3.08 for that particular reason.
Thx!

The letters are back in 3.10

Thx so much :)
That's what I already answered earlier in this topic. It's good to know people read the whole topic before they react ;)
