Suggestion: In the Queue Viewer window, the dropdown at the top that shows one or more entries formed as "N - Pnnnn (Rnn, Cnn, Gnn)": Without a tooltip or background in FAH, a new user wouldn't know what the initial N stands for, as well as why there might be more than one value in that dropdown, as well as what R/C/G REALLY means beyond Run/Clone/Gen. Another tooltip to explain that dropdown might be useful. Also, there is no visual feedback to indicate that that dropdown might have more than one value in it for me to know to switch between them. So, maybe it would be better if it were a textbox when there is just one entry, but a dropdown when there is more than one entry to select. Or some count on the left of the dropdown indicating the number of entries in it.

Response: I like the idea of an indication when there are multiple items in the slot queue. Great suggestion!
