hy!

when browsing my songs i'd like to have the option to let MM display all tracks of a container (folder, artist, album, etc) when you click on it - instead of the "All" container... i don't really like it, it's one click more!

thanks!

Picture this big library.
Accidently click on upper node link.

Need to wait a long time for the screen to update.

I'd rather keep it the way it is.

I agree with you pah68.
if this behavior is used then user have no way to know what songs are in selected node and which one is in his subnodes.

BTW Node 'All' can be placed on top of all subnodes so that it is not big hastle to clic ones more.

How do you guys mean? It works that way on my computer. I click on the Artist, Album, Title, Year and Genre nodes and all tracks in it (+ in subfolders) are showed in the main tracklist. (the loading takes about 2 seconds to load completely, +15000 tracks)

I only get the "All" subnodes on the "Location" and "My Computer" nodes, using MM 2.4.2.874.

Could you please clarify?

Thanks

steegy,

yes, you're right. and exactly this behaviour should also work on the Location nodes.

this should be an optional feature. default behaviour like it is now, but, for users like me, with the option to change it.

For a long while I wished this too, but the all node has solved this for me.
