[bug report] Select all in Library does not select all

Kolen Cheung

Logos 8.2.0.0015 on macOS Mojave.

1. open Library
2. Do some kind of search, or no search at all. The library shows a certain no. of matched result (say 1910)
3. Select all by Cmd + A
4. On the Info panel, it says only 50/100/150/350 are selected. This no. is not the same every time.
5. Scroll down to the end as much as you’d like. It appears as if one really selected all resources (i.e. darker blue conveying selected)

Now change this order to:

1. open Library
2. Do some kind of search, or no search at all. The library shows a certain no. of matched result (say 1910)
3. Scroll down to the end as much as you’d like.
4. Select all by Cmd + A
5. (different result here) On the Info panel, it shows the same no. as in step 2, e.g. 1910.

Now changing this order to:

1. open Library
2. Do some kind of search, or no search at all. The library shows a certain no. of matched result (say 1910)
3. (different step here) Hit End key on keyboard to reach the end.
4. Select all by Cmd + A
5. (different result here) On the Info panel, it says only xxx are selected. This no. is not the same every time, and is not all the resources e.g. 1910.

So apparently the problem is that the library by default doesn’t show everything for performance. But then it handles “select all” incorrectly.

Let me know if one can’t reproduce this bug, and if so let’s sort out how to report it reproducibly.

For a stopgap measure, one should keep scrolling such that all resources indeed are shown in the Library first, then select all, which will result in actually selecting all.
