b [Fixed] GUI problem with Warehousing mod

1 year, 6 months ago

I'm playing Space Exploration and using the Warehousing mod (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Warehousing) to store a large number of different materials on a space base.

When placing a filter inserter next to a warehouse, I'm getting a weird GUI display when choosing what filters to use. The lower halves of the inventory panes are cut off and can't be selected as shown in this image: https://i.imgur.com/nQom145.jpeg

Perhaps this is due to the large number of possible options for the filter?

One potential improvement that you may or may not want to consider: I've also installed Bob's Adjustable Inserters mod and the result is that the filter helper UI shows a long column in a wide box with "wasted space" as seen here: https://i.imgur.com/hB9qJ0O.png

The likely reason is the extra window provided by Bob's mod that forces filter helper to make its own window wider. When using a filter miniloader (which doesn't display bob's window), filter helper shows its regular UI, a single column.

It would be nice if the extra space is used so we don't have to scroll down a long list. However this is just a bonus feature, the mod is fully functional at the moment.
