Sorting albums by date
joelha:
Now that's embarrassing.
Let me try that again.
Thanks,
Joel

I'm unsure what you want. The view you have shown and attached has 3 levels: Date Created, Artist, and Album. Each level groups albums together.
Do you want no grouping at all? Just albums, sorted by Date Created?
That's dead simple: Just remove all of the categories except for Album. Then, in the menu at the top of the view, select Sort By > Date Created .
That's actually very similar to my default albums view. I sort by Date Imported, which is almost identical to date created on my system.

joelha:
Thanks very much for the quick replies, Brian.

joelha:
Well, I'm publicly acknowledging my inability to accomplish something which is dead simple.
When I delete everything but "album", I lose the dates which identify each album (which I'd like to keep) and the sort is oldest to newest rather than the reverse.
The sort by "newest first" at the top of the screen does nothing to resolve this issue for me.
What obvious point(s) am I missing?
Thanks,
Joel

Do you want additional thumbnail next that shows the creation date? You can add that to the thumbnail text if you want. Pull down the menu at the top of the view and select Thumbnails > Thumbnail text . In the dialog that appears you can type field names as you like.

Again, use the menu at the top of the view to select your sort field. See attached image. Notice that I have selected Date Imported but have used "z-a", which sorts in reverse. You can do the same thing, but use Date Created.
Good luck.
Brian.
