The Crafting Log is a Overgrown Mess.

What's wrong with the favorites list, item type filter drop down, completion filter, recent filter, and search?

favorites list: There's no way to remove automatically added items from the list except by first selecting to add them to the list (even though they're already there), then finding them again since they move when you do that, and selecting to remove them. It's an awkward and counterintuitive process for cleaning out your favorites. (That and I wish we had room for more favorites, but that could be a data size issue, so is less annoying than the other complaint which is just bad design.)

item type filter drop down: Annoying that it sets the filter only within a single section. I'd prefer if we could choose an item category once and then move around between different level range groups or even different crafting jobs to see what each has within that category.

completion filter: This one's nice when you're leveling or working on achievements. Is it new?

search: The old version of it was nice, back when you got to do a search while staying on your selected class. Now every time you look up one ingredient, it moves you to a separate search tab just to make you have to scroll through your classes to get back to where you'd just been before you can look up the next ingredient. That's uselessly cumbersome. (It certainly beats not having a search function at all, though, which we put up with for a long time when the game was new.)

others: There's also other types of filtering that would be nice, but which we don't have. When I'm looking to make the next couple sets of gear for my healer, it would be nice to filter for gear that gives a Mind boost so I don't have to scroll through all the gear for other roles to find it. Same with food that boosts CP or whatever...


Overall, I think I'm with DarkDedede on this one. I love the game's crafting system, but the crafting window Interface is clunky.
