AllowDuplicates = false not working as expected in overlapping sections

[xozion]

Hey all,

i encountered an issue when using sections that overlap item categories, resulting in duplicate item displays, where there should be none. I want to have some sections to act as display for a big (parent)category and some other sections to filter out specific sub-categories.

Reproduction steps

WowRetail 10.0.2 (german language) / Baggins 4.6.6

1. Create a bag
2. Create two sections: CraftItems, CookItems
3. Set section CraftItemsto: AllowDuplicates=false, Categoy: crafting material (priority 1)
4. Set section CookItems to: AllowDuplicates=false, Category: cooking (priority 2)

Actual behaviour

Section "CraftItems" does display all crafting material related items, including cooking-stuff. At the same time section "CookItems" displays cooking-stuff items aswell resulting in duplicate item entries for all cook related items.

Expected behaviour

Cooking items are only displayed in section "CookItems" and NOT inside section "CraftItems" aswell.

Since section CookItems is set higher priority than section CraftItems, i expect it to have precedence when displaying cooking items and filtering them from the former section (as long as AllowDuplicates isnt set to true).

Is this a bug or did i configure something wrong?

In baggins config > Items. There is a dropdown menu for "Hide Duplicate Items" what do you have that set to?

Thanks for the hint, I just checked the setting, it was set to disabled. Didn't see it so far. I changed it to bag/global, and the duplicate items inside the parent-category section disappeared (they're now only shown in the sub-category section with the high priority).

This is exactly what i wanted. So it basically was user-error on my side. Thanks alot for the follow up, this fixed the issue! Feel free to close the ticket :)
