I've had some trouble with box set contents and keeping the child profiles attached to the parents.

I ordered 2 box sets yesterday and these were profiles that I had in my wish list since prior to the conversion. At the point that I ordered the sets, I then downloaded the child profiles (new to my collection) into my Ordered collection and attempted to add them to the parents.

I completed one set just fine, but when I edited the 2nd set, the child profiles "fell out" of the 1st parent set. I went to put those back in and the profiles fell out of the 2nd profile. I tried removing the child profiles, saving, and adding them back. I cleared filters. Finally, even though the child profiles were not under the parent profiles, but the box set contents appeared correct, I closed the program and restarted. Then everything was fine.

One of the sets arrived today and I moved the parent to my Owned collection. The child profiles did not follow. The option to move the child profiles to the Owned collecition was grayed out. Again I tried to clear the box set contents and start over. Cleared filters. Nothing. Again, I closed the program and restarted and now it's fine.

If you've ordered them, you may as well put them in the Owned column.  All of my boxsets with children are 100% functional both before and after upgrading to 3.0 and then 3.0.1.  I just added a new one since going to 3.0.1 and it worked as advertised.

John,

The issue is not with just adding ONE box set. It's adding child profiles to a set, then another set, and they leave the first set. Then another set and they leave the second set. James is the third person to notice this issue.

I doubt all three of us imagined this.

This is corrected in the next release.  It's only a display issue.  If you were to close and restart, you'd see both box sets are intact.

When you have a box set with child profile in your wish or ordered list:
you move the wishlist  box set to the ordered list or owned list and ordered to the owned list
preform a "reassign collection numbers". It forces a refresh pf the screen. Even when you move wish list to ordered your not assigning any numbers to these lists your forcing a refresh.
It works for me. This happened occasionally in the 2.5 verson.

I was afraid it was just me. I didn't search well enough, it seems. Glad it's not me though.

I'll try that if I buy anymore box sets before the next release.
