Hi all

Is it not possible to group by multiple columns in a detail pane?  It seems that I can only select one option - the dropdown has a tick against the selected option, suggesting you can tick multiples, but this doesn't work; selecting another overrides the first.

I guess I can work around this by making  a custom expression field that concatanates the two source fields, and then group by that.  

But that's a bit clunky - I think MC needs to support grouping my multiple columns, in a defined order.   You could easily re-use the Customize View -> Sort -> Custom sort order dialogue box as the UI for controlling multiple group columns.

I currently have two use cases where I need this:

1. Audio:  I just crated a new Custom Field called Release Version.  This allows me to diffentiate different versions of the same CD.  E.g.  I mark MFSL releases, Ultradisk, or just a specific remaster.

In some cases I want to keep multiple versions of the same album.  Therefore I need to group first by Album, then by Release Version.  

2.  Video: TV Shows.  I want to group first by Series, then by Season.


Thanks


Tom
