did you see that the link is also at the bottom of the post above yours? :slight_smile:

Yes I did. I figured it was easier to include the link than say “the link at the bottom of the original post”

@elstoc Chris is this true…someone asked on FB and I went to the pulls and it seemed the problem was that rejected images were showing as rating 0 and this is now fixed so rejected shows as an X?? That is not what this makes it sound like was done?? Just checking…my PC with DT is fried and I am waiting for a new one so I could not check…

For me, on 3.8.1 that variable returns nothing for zero stars and an X for rejected. I suspect that this is the correct behaviour and the release notes are wrong.

That is what I was trying to convey…badly…and it sounds like it is correct now whereas in the past rejected showed as zero…
