Hi dankan, thanks for your work.

But MEWUI crashes here when I try to select the CONFIGURE OPTION in the menu (I'm using the 64-bits UME build)

... BUG FOUND! ...

After changing the list mode from Classic to Grouped, and saving the settings, you are then unable to switch it back to Classic list mode.

Please fix

Thanks.

Ya know when you scroll through the snapshot images, what would you think of adding the History and MAME Info displayed there at the end?... like how the History tab is displayed at the end (at the far right-hand side) in MAMEUI and most other derivatives. But also keep the option available to press ALT H and ALT M. This way users have a choice. Sometimes I just want to read some history on a game, so I'd press ALT H, so I wouldn't have to scroll through all the images just to reach the game's History. And sometimes I want to view the snapshots to see what the cabinet looks like etc. and as I keep pressing RIGHT as I'm scrolling through the snapshots, it would be nice to have the History and MAME Info available there at the end instead of having to press ALT H. Ya know what I mean? Also, some people don't realize or know to press ALT H to view the History... they may think that it's not supported. Personally, it took me months to realize that it was supported and that I had to press ALT H to view it. That information is buried in the ChangeLog. And if someone doesn't read the whole ChangeLog (most don't), it's understandable that they are also unaware of it's availability.

It's not a big deal if it's too much trouble for you to implement, or if it would bog down the emulator. It's just a tiny suggestion.

The emulator is looking great. I've been following/using it since it's first release. It was nice seeing it progress to what it is now. You've done a good job.

You mean something like this?

Is almost ready for the next release, i have to arrange only the details, so I haven't released with version 1.53.
