      the materials dropdown list used to only show the top level folders and materials in the materials folder, clicking on the folder would expose the materials in that folder.

      and subfolders:

      2026: now, all folders and subfolders are appearing in one long list on the dropdown. so the hierarchy that was the previous mode has now been made into a single flat list?

      not seeing this as helpful. maybe if there was a configuration option which let me decide if i wanted to see everything all at once, or just be able to walk my way though the materials...

        When you add a root folder every child and nested folder gets added to the dropdown list.

        In the panel itself you get the more typical folder based structure.

          so, all of my folders will be on the dropdown list now? so, no more organized methodical use of the dropdown? so instead of easy navigation and using the dropdown to move up, etc, i just have everything without ordering it? really?

          please fix this.
