Question: Am I supposed to be able to click on anything in Spotlight? Example similar artists show up but I can't click on them.

Suggestion: it would be nice if there was a way to discern what albums are in my library. Highlighted, bold etc.

Lastly thanks for this. TBH Spotlight has also introduced me to all the other links that I never use.

JimH:
Hopefully it will be more interactive soon.

rec head:
OK. I wasn't sure if I was missing something. I think it will be a nice addition.

A few more suggestions:
1) As I said having it made obvious which albums I own would be great. But then clicking on albums that I don't have could link to Amazon or another store I could set up. Similar to how clicking on the Amazon link now.

2) I would use Spotlight much more often in Theater View.

Hey Mark,
In your post number 57, you have a screenshot of a links menu. How did you get that? I know MC will show a menu for the items there is no longer room for when things get squeezed to the right far enough (and then clicking on a tiny chevron), but yours just looks like a straight up menu.

I see how you can create the menu dividers using fake links in the manage links dialog, but how do you get the entire list to show? I tried putting in a fake link with a whole slew of spaces so everything gets pushed right. It kind of worked I guess, but it is a bit of an ugly workaround.

Or is the ability to show the links as a menu existing functionality that I have managed to miss over all these years? 

Nevermind… It is a straight up menu, just not from the links bar.  Right-clicking on a library item shows a context menu which has a sub menu for links - just like the one in your screenshot. I guess I just never noticed before and have never accessed links that way.  I was thinking you were getting that menu straight from the links bar itself. Which actually would be a nice option to have. One of the reasons I suggested in another thread that all those links be converted to Favicons was to save space. Another way would be to just have a button in the links bar itself that shows all the links as a list.
