[1628][AVM] "My Avatars" section has lost a lot of features compared to live
tracked
DrBlackRat
Issue:
With the AVM Update to the Avatars Tab in the Main Menu all the previous options were moved to "My Avatars".
My Avatars is missing quite a lot of features compared to live:
- No more "compact view"
- You can no longer sort the different categories (e.g. Date Added, Last Updated, Name, Recently Used, Performance)
- Minimizing the navigation panel removes the categories all together instead of making them icons
In general the new Avatars UI feels very weird and not coherent with the rest of the Menu.
Expected Behaviour / Suggestion:
These missing features should be reimplemented to prevent this being a regression compared to live.
"My Avatars" should have imo just looked like it currently does on live with a "Purchased" category edited to it. Currently it just looks really out of place.

[1628] [AVM] Recent Avatars page sorting issues
Zеkk
Issue:
The “recent” tab in the avatar menu is sorting from oldest used to newest, and does not update the position of avatars which are already in the recent tab.
Reproduction Steps:
- Open the big menu.
- Open avatars.
- Select “my avatars”.
- Observe the avatars in your recents.
- Swap to an avatar that is not in your recents.
- Observe that the avatar appears in your recents at the bottom of the page.
- Swap to an avatar that is in your recents.
- Observe that the avatar remains in the same place on your recents page.
Expected Behavior:
Avatars should sort from most recently used (at the top of the page) to least recently used (at the bottom of the page). Avatars on the recent page should be moved to the start of the recent page when you swap into them. This matches live behavior.
Attachments Description:
Example of this recent page behavior on the a-test beta.

'Reset height' button also no longer exists in the new UI. I actually used this quite often, though I may be the exception.
DrBlackRat
RuneFox237 Yeah I noticed that too yesterday.
I don’t think that button is that important in there as it’s easy to reset in the action menu.
RuneFox237
DrBlackRat I still liked to be able to reset the avatar while still in the menu. There's some edge cases where that would be preferable than to switch into an avatar that might be set way too large/small for the current situation then navigate the action menu to reset the height. Would be happy even if it's a button relegated to the Details menu since that's where the avatar height is listed now.
DrBlackRat
RuneFox237 Oh don't get me wrong, I see why that button is useful. Imo the other things that were removed are just wayyy more important to the average user.

This is due to there no longer being sorting options in the menu. It’s just sort newest to oldest for me.

DrBlackRat Interesting, I don't remember ever changing the sorting on live.
DrBlackRat
Zеkk yeah on live it defaults to last used
