Thanks for getting back to us. Glad that helped.
Anything else worth noting? or links worth pasting in for completeness?
I don't use stacks for any of my audio files, but use them extensively in my image library. Way back, when stacking was first introduced, I was only going to commit to them if there was a way to manage them somehow. Now, while MC does not provide the means by way of a default view, it is possible to create one for yourself, but, before doing so, a basic understanding of what you're looking at in the file list and what that means for you is definitely required.
Have a read of
this post (
all of it), including the "more ramblings" link at the end, which should arm you with enough to create your own stack manager view. If you have any other questions though, or need anything clarified, just shout and we'll do our best to help.
One thing that springs to mind for audio is that you would most likely be in a 'details' list view rather than thumbnails, and the stack icon in a details list column is small and demands attention to learn the collapsed/expanded state of your stack, and to identify the 'top of stack' file. The thumbnail text expression I mention there could also be used to create an "Expression Column" which would, if you changed the word "image" to "Track" write "Top Track" into the column against the top of stack file.
Similarly, a second expression based column using: "if(isempty([stack view]),Expanded,Collapsed)" (without the quotes) would display in words the expanded/collapsed status of the stack, which as you will know or will learn, is extremely important when it comes to tagging or moving the files in the stack. In my image view scheme, I have that "Expanded / Collapsed" expression as the first category (pane).
