jamovi

Hello all,

I have been using Jamovi for some years now, and love it.

Unfortunately, the module manager is becoming entirely unwieldy, as the list of available/installed modules increases.

I often spend 2 mins+ searching for a single module in my list, that I would like to uninstall.

This is compounded by 3 factors:

1) Modules are not listed in alphabetical order

2) "Available" modules list is cluttered by already installed modules, making searches for new/recently available modules EXTREMELY frustrating

3) The module manager window itself is VERY small, and cannot be click-drag-expanded like a typical window.

AS SUCH:

I desperately request the following...

1) Please, please, please add a "sort by date" and "sort by character" option at the top.

2) Please, please have a "hide already installed modules" checkbox in the manager, under the "Available" tab

3) Less urgent, but still helpful—Please allow the module window to be expanded, or at least give it a somewhat larger area.

Thank you!!

Otherwise, I love using this software.

hey, yeah, i hear you.

a search facility with tags would be great too.

it's the eternal challenge of lots to do, and not enough time.

cheers

Thank you Jonothan.

In the meantime, is there anything that can be done?

I am thinking a .ini hack to expand the default size of the window would already help a lot.

Additionally, a .ini hack which hides already installed modules.

Now that I think about it, modules could be listed by alphabetical order by default, and I am sure nobody would complain about this. This would not even require any changes to the GUI, it could just be a standard feature.

Is there any chance that we could expect something like this in coming releases?

I second the suggestions provided by hayaku above.

A facility to search for (or atleast sort) modules may become a necessity as the number of modules continue to grow.

Hope the team gets enough time to incorporate these.

Again, thanks for the great product (service) that Jamovi is.
