The Room Picker cuts off rooms at the top and bottom of a long list
In short
With enough rooms, the Room Picker's cloud could grow taller than the screen — and older versions centered the list instead of scrolling, clipping rooms off both ends. Roomie Remote 10.5 fixes this: the picker now scrolls, so every room is reachable. If you're still on an older version, each room's "Add to Room Picker" switch shrinks the cloud back onto the screen.
Fixed in 10.5
Update to Roomie Remote 10.5 from the App Store and the Room Picker scrolls through the full list — short lists keep the centered look, long lists scroll. No settings changes needed.
On an older version — why the first rooms vanish
Before 10.5, the picker laid every room out as one block and centered it vertically, so overflow was split evenly off the top and bottom edges — which is why it was typically the first rooms in your list that disappeared. Homes with a long tail of spare, duplicate, or empty rooms crossed the threshold first.
The older-version workaround
Edit any room and turn off "Add to Room Picker" for the rooms you rarely open — empty rooms and duplicates are the natural candidates. The switch only affects the picker: the room stays in the Rooms list and everywhere else. And the full Rooms list never clips, so every room is always reachable from there regardless of version.
