Why is my favorites "tab" filled up?

[Jojoya]

I was going to use favorites in my job log for the first time, and found it filled with stuff I hadn't put there (all crafters). Are these used as some sort of history log as well? And how can I keep that from happening?

If you don't have any Favorites selected, it will automatically list the last items you crafted on that job. If you have fewer than the max number of Favorites selected, it will fill up the remaining slots with the most recently crafted items. Selecting Favorites will overwrite listed items that weren't marked as Favorites and will automatically sort to the top of the list.

There's no way to prevent it from happening but it doesn't prevent you from Selecting your Favorites at least.

So much for having a favorite tab.

What's wrong with it? Were you expecting the game to magically figure out which crafts are your favourite ones?

You know that you can actually select favorites? And when the window those favorites are shown in is filled with the history of what you've done, how easy is it (with a bad memory) to chose the wrong item? Think before you comment, and especially when your comment is as negative as this!

Yes, I do know that it's possible to actually select favourites, that's kind of the point of the system.
I also know that these favourites are all tagged with a red pin, causing them to stick to the top of the list, and to not be pushed off by any recently crafted items. Which has already been stated by the few posts above this one, by now.

Yes, but I do not understand what history has to do in favorites, they should be in their own window, not in a window that's labeled favorites. That's what I said, so why are you arguing? Isn't it obvious? You label the window according to what's in it, and I seriously dislike inconsistency.
