right click on cover picture MM4 vs. MM5 [#17892]

[aanona]

When I click on the cover image in MM4, the selection for the other images was displayed. In MM5 I can only search for images online when I right-click. I also lack the choice to display the picture in full size.

You can cycle through the images via the Preview window:

And clicking the image in the Preview window shows it full-screen:

Additionaly in the 'Artwork only' layout of the Preview window there are arrows < > allowing to cycle through the images like in an image gallery:

Hi Ludek,

all of your options rely upon the "preview" panel being enabled, and also its current panel being visible, and also the Selected (vs Playing) tab being selected.

None of this is a given. And it is not too intuitive that the "selected" tab of the "preview" panel be required to enable art fullsize viewing.

I agree with aanona's general point, that MM4 provided significantly better access to full sized album art.

I don't understand the reason for the change.
It seems a natural requirement that Full Sized art be easily available from both Grid and also List by Album views just as it was in MM4.

I know that the context menu for Grid view is already long, but the one for List by Album only has a single entry ... And the Grid context menu could be shorted by putting the Play options into a submenu, or the cut|copy|paste|etc options into a "Manage" sub-menu. ... IMO neither of those two options are required, but they would be preferable to hiding the Show Full Sized Art menu.

Even though I have already bought an MM5 license, this is the reason I haven't switched to MM5 yet. When looking through the albums in the tree view, it would be an advantage to view the other scanned images, e.g. that back cover to display.
