368 - Last selected recipe jump

What is the nature of the defect?
Open gnomeworks for a profession. Select a random recipe. Close gnomeworks, open it. The highlight bar will be on the recipe you last selected. Now change the highlight bar to a different recipe that you can create. Create X number of it. The highlight bar will jump back to the old recipe between every creation.

Things get worse if you are an enchanter doing creations one by one, as you have to remember to re-select the thing you want to create every time. I generally open gnomeworks, click on what I want to create, close it, and then start creating to avoid this issue.

This is using version 144

I have the same problem. After a little while, and perhaps after crafting an item or two, the highlight will jump back to a previously selected recipe. It will do this while I'm crafting, or while I'm not doing anything. Reloading the UI will fix it temporarily, but soon it will start happening again.

I first noticed this on level 525 jewelcrafting, but it happens on other crafts (alchemy, engineering, etc.) as well. It seems to be much more prone to occur on crafts with many recipes.

This addon is so very useful that I can't imagine doing without it, which makes this and the other bugs I'm encountering all the more frustrating. I hope you can get a chance to address some of these bugs soon, LilSparky!

sorry kerecha.  :(

i don't think it's hit me either, but in all honesty, i barely play wow these days.  and when i do, it's pretty much working on gw.  the only crafting i do is testing things out, so it's not exactly good field testing...

i'll try to get this one sorted out.  i suppose the current bug is worse that previous bugs related to the same issue...

I just got massively shafted by this bugg, and i mean massively 40k gold (and 20 orbs down the drain and no way to get em back) lost.

Had crafted a [Witch-Hunter's Harvester] for a guildie and then picked up the mats for 4x [Masterwork Elementium Deathblade] for my warr and my hubbys warr and selected it, put 4 in the box and hit craft, but in the split second befor i hit craft it bug reverted to [Witch-Hunter's Harvester], giving me 4 useless weps...

I rarely craft more then 1 thing at a time so never notised the bug before :(

the selection system has gotten a bit sketchy. the trouble relates to the reconciling what exactly is currently selected. not in the sense of which recipe, but in the sense of whether the current selection is recorded based on the row selected, the recipe selected, the skill index selected, etc. there are currently a few different competing selections and i think they're confusing each other. every time i address the issue, i think i just make it worse. i'll try to come up with a clear internal sense of what is being selected and hopefully it will clear this problem up.

This bug is real frustrating, its an addon breaker for me. It isn't just changing the selected recipie after every creation, it is doing it every few seconds making it just about impossible to create anything using gnomeworks.

Now that wowace is back up i'm trying to find a working previous version. 145 only does the jump after creation, not every few seconds, but it generates errors when you do stuff with the queue.

I get this a lot when making inks. It will keep jumping back to Inferno Ink no matter what I do.

This can happen even when you are not crafting - sometimes it will jump when you are not doing anything at all.
