Title: How to Change Smartlist to a Custom View that Includes Album Thumbnails ?
Post by: blafarm on April 26, 2025, 11:03:55 pm

Sorry for this noob question.

I am trying to change the view of several Smartlists I have created from the default File List view -- to one of three Custom Views that I have created that very similar to the stock Artist and Album views available under the Audio heading of the left side menu bar.  In other words, a full screen of Album cover thumbnails.

I have created several .jvi Custom Views that all reside in the Library > Saved Views folder.

When I right click on a specific Smartlist I have created, and select the bottom Customize View option, a dialog box appears and the default File List view appears in the left side View As pulldown menu.  No other option appears.

So I then use the "Load a view from file..." option in the Settings pane in the middle that same dialog box, and select any of my .jvi Custom Views -- and nothing happens.

I have tried this several times, including using the "Save this view" after selecting one of my Custom Views -- but the outcome is the same.

I have also closed and reopened the application several times -- but the outcome is the same.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
