Please advise me how to minimize/close the window
to the left in grey in attached pic
I dont know name of that window , so please excuse
me
The one with playing now/albums/artists etc
Some times i just like it out of the way , until i
need it again
When i hold mouse over edge between those in pic
i use to be able to push that window away and
bring it back in same way
Now when i put mouse over it i get the left - right
arrows but it wont move
i hope i explained this well enough
Cheers

the answer was that it might be something for a "future project": https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,110030.0.html

It's called "The Tree Pane" or "The Tree" or "Navigation Tree" or "The panel on the left"
It has a minimum width. All you need to do when you get those "left - right" arrows, is double click and the tree will close :)
i hope i explained this well enough
You did.

Specifically, you want to double click on the triangle that points to the left. These are called disclosure triangles. Here's a little more info:

that level of accuracy is not needed. Just get the "left - right" arrows cursor, and double click.
Single clicks on the little triangles do the job too, but they're a pain to locate and hit, if you can even see them (think fx. Modern Cards skins). Far easier to just get the cursor in the right place anywhere along the splitter and double click, no?

^ You taught me something!
This doesn't work as expected on the splitter bar between playing now's cover art and file list area. But it works great on the left hand nav splitter. Cool.

I added a Toggle Tree button to the bottom toolbar - I don't have to double click anymore. ;)

Ctrl + T does it for me (T for Tree... geddit :))
If you have a resource.xml in your custom resources folder, this'll do it for you....
<Entry Key="Ctrl;T" Command="22029" Param="-1" TranslateFlags="23" />

Now i did learn that window to left is called the tree -pane view
For me double clicking that 2 sided arrow takes away pane-tree , ctrl-T brings it back
So thats awesome
Cheers mates
Now everytime i muck about i create another problem
How do i get to (and from ) the 3d cover flow where i can wheel through covers ?
And can i make the art larger there ? i believe the mouse centre button will increase art
size in 3d cover flow , but now i cant find 3d cover flow
The display to browse for me used most often tho is as below(i browse cover art in under playing
now , by artist or album
Can i i increse the size of the cover art (My eyes are real bad so i need larger art) size when
viewing by album/artist ?
Its real sweet i can CTRL-T now and rid that pane , that slightly makes it easier to see cover art
,but i need to increase more
All resizing does for me is make the border -top-bottom larger or smaller , no effect on cover art
size ,it also mucks with the sising of text in playing now
i have text in playing now set perfect so i dont want to mess with that
i only wish to increase art display
Cheers

Or just increase artwork in cover view

That was implemented two months ago.
-
wow, thanks. could you please point me to the release?
-
You could read the release notes. Check the build threads.
-
sorry, can't find it. also this functionality is not available on my side (22.0.110) unless i'm doing it wrong. we're probably talking about different things (i'm referring to resizable windows like indicated on the screenshot in my linked thread above)
-
That would be in MC23.
-
I believe that change was before the first public release, but the first Public Release Notes for MC23.0.8 included everything back to MC23.0.2, where the change is listed.
https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,111100.msg767884.html#msg767884
23.0.2 (6/9/2017)
33. NEW: The TV Channels box on Standard Television view can be resized.
Also, the Disclosure Triangles have been visible since the change, indicating that the Pane is resizable and can be hidden.
Mind you, the horizontal divider between the function selection pane ("All Programs" through to "Show Status") and the Channel List still isn't resizable, and it would be nice if it was, particularly on the high-resolution monitor I use for my Client.

thanks!

Or just increase artwork in cover view
Cheers
Thanks
When in cover view how do i increase artwork size ?
i tried via size option in menu at top , but it only increases or decreases the bar-border around the program
How do i increase just the artwork size ?
Im not at home for weekend , but i may be able to get someone to go to my house and logon my desktop and i d be able to remotely try this from here
Cheers mates for all the help
