Concept of "default clone" #421

Open ToddLa opened 1 year ago

ToddLa commented 1 year ago

Currently you can see all clones, or hide clones.

There is a sort option to "group by clones" but still some machines and merged romsets have many clones, and the Library UX is "full of Clones"

We do show Clones in a slightly different color, but it is subtle

This proposal is to when "hide clones" is on (aka hide clones mode) allow user to select (via context menu) what clone to launch.

Very similar to "Play" and "Play With..." that lets you select the system/machine.

The default clone would be remembered

Also might want to move the "hide clones" from the global settings option and make it a view/sort/category option at top of library view.

totally agree with it being a filter option at the top of the library view! took me 2 years to find the option in Settings (and A LOT of scrolling! lol)
