Thumbnail text [Name] bug
« on: June 30, 2006, 02:51:19 pm »

I've mentioned this in the Media Center area before,
but I'm gonna bring it back up here as it's still present.

On your album views, the default thumbnail text is
[Name]

However [Name] is not actually inserting the Name tag
but the text for the current view.
So if the current view shows episodes then
[Name] contains an episode number, rather than
the episode name.

What should happen is the view should select the appropriate default
thumbnail text dynamically from the current view.
 And [name] should contain [name]

Groupings (like "Genres") are always named based on their grouping key.

The above image highlights the problem.
There's 3 red circles.

If instead of [Name] the right most part of the breadcrumbs
was used(Top Most Red Circle), that would be correct.

Here's the work around I used, which shows the view as it should be.

[Episode with name] is a calculated Extended tag with the calculated data as:
[Episode] - [Name]

As it is currently, it will probably confuse new/intermediate users,
as it's not doing what it says it's doing, and making the name tag inaccesable.
