Spell windows Source list question

[pico]

When I have many modules loaded and open the Spells window the Source pull-down list includes all the sources from every module loaded regardless if I have a specific module selected at the top of the window.

Is this intentional? Wouldn't it make more sense to limit the entries in Source to what appears in the selected module?

You don't mention which ruleset. In the masterindex, the window that appears after you have clicked on the sidebar, if you change the group or click on the name of the module to the right of the spell's name, it should only show what is available from that module. In a lot of cases, some modules will have duplicate data. If you are not seeing this, please provide some images and steps to recreate the issue.

My apologies for not being more specific.
In the D&D 5e ruleset if you load the PHB and Explorer's guid to Wildemount modules only.
On the right side open the "Spells" windows.
Under source you will see "Dunamancy" in the list which is only in the wildmount module.
If you pick Group: D&D Player's Handbook, "Dunamancy" still appears on the list and choosing it has no content.

In many other windows, if you pick a module in the Group selector, the contents of the window only show what is valid within that module. But, in this case, the Source list does not update. Is this intentional or an issue that should be reported?
Thanks

That is correct, it will show sources from all of the books that are currently loaded. So if you load both the PHB and Wildemount, it will show any spell sources from those books. The source list will not filter down based on the group selected for the window. This is intended.
