1304 Multiple track Find More... Playlist fails [7005]

[chrisjj]

1 Click a track thats on playlist A
2 CTRL+click below it a track that's on playlist B (creating a multiple selection)
3 Click Find more from same... Playlist

Expected: sub-menu shows playlists A and B
Observed: sub-menu shows only playlist A

I haven't tested other Find more from same... targets.

MediaMonkey only shows the Find More from Same for the active track in the selection. This actually makes sense as if you select 10000 tracks it would be impossible to use Find More from Same.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Not at all. It would be used to find what playlists referenced the 10000 tracks.

How would it do that? Playlists are never listed in the track view. Rather I think it would display all the tracks from all the playlists referenced. Not very useful.

As it does currently for 1 treack - names the playlists on the right-click menu.

> Playlists are never listed in the track view.

Indeed. I would love that they were.

Well it would also need to list all Artists and Albums, etc. for all 10000 tracks, otherwise the behavior wouldn't be consistent. And listing 100's (or more) Artist is not useful.

It is useful to me. If it is not useful to you, don't do it.

You're saying that you would not mind to scroll through 100's of Artists, then 100's of Albums to get to the Playlists in the Right click Find More from Same menu?

I'm not saying that. In the case in question, I don't need to scroll through Artists or Albums. "3 Click Find more from same... Playlist" takes me straight to the list of playlists.

[Lowlander]

Each artist has it's own entry and playlists is listed under this. Thus you need to scroll through the Artist list to get to the playlist entry.

I don't see that here LL. V1304.

Are you viewing the Find More From Same menu for a track with multiple values?

Yes, and the menu shows only the first.

EDIT: No sorry - that was for trackS with multiple values.

Post-1304 addition, perhaps?

Skinned bonus, perhaps?

[Lowlander]

Do this on a multi-artist track and you'll see it.

Was that long list of yours from just one track?
