[REQ] Right clicking album art... [#19079][#19149]

[ed.j]

... used to give you options such as play next/play now/play last/properties/convert etc etc. This was very useful as you could directly add an album to Now Playing. Now, you have to click the album art (to select all the tracks in the album), then move over and right click one of the tracks.

It works in the MM4 way in Grid by album view but not List by album view. I can't see why it wouldn't be enabled for the latter.

It's a small omission but bit of a pain. Can the functionality be added back in?

Hi,
Can you post screenshot, as what ever focused tree node with grid by album view I test right click on album art I get all teh options you refer missing?

EDIT: Ahhh, you refer to List by Album.

Threa title is Ronseal!

It works for Grid (by Album) view but not List (by Album). Would appreciate if could be fixed. Thanks

I'm not sure why these threads were merged, they are different issues.

You cannot drag an album cover from List (by Album) into the now playing list to add that whole album in one go, but you can from the other views (Grid by Album, Browser)

Please can this be fixed as it's surprsingly infuriating!

I can't believe this doesn't annoy more people - I find it infuriating on a daily basis!

Would love for it to be fixed asap.

We plan to fix this, but fyi, a workaround is to right-click on the Album image > Play Next (or last), but this doesn't give the fine-grained control of adding it to a _specific_ location in the Playing list.

Playing albums getting more and more difficult...

You used to be able to click on an album cover and then hit keyboard-enter to add an album to Now Playing. Now, nothing happens. I expect that this is because, from a UI perspective, the album cover is selected, not the tracks.

You still can't drag and drop an album into the NP list......
