Question: Is it possible to select / find a specific issue before a library is fully loaded?

[bareheiny]

I'm defining "fully loaded" as the "Total:" matching the number of comics that are in the CX database.

As CX gets comics in sets of 100, do I actually need to wait for the library to be fully loaded before being able to find and select a specific issue or issues?

To date, I have never been able to get to the point where the library is fully loaded (currently collecting data on this). However if it is not necessary for the library to fully load, this may be a non issue.

It depends on what you mean by "find". Until the comics have been processed, the metadata for each unprocessed comic won't be there for searching. So, for example, if none of the comics for the series "Batman" have been processed, then searching for "Batman" will return an empty set, even if there are 1k+ comics in that series. But you can scroll though, find issues that have been created in the library, and view them. And I've thought about adding a "prioritize" option so that, if you're viewing the details for a comic that's not yet been processed, would push it to the front of the list and process it next.

Hmmm....so I think the short answer is no - which is what I anticipated.

I'll keep on gathering my data then - seeing something visually, with evidence to back it up, is more useful than my simply saying the library is slow to load.
