Title: What are linkable columns?
Post by: gvag on March 20, 2010, 06:42:51 pm

What do they do?  How do you control them.  There's nothing in the wiki about them.

Thanks

BUMP

I'd like to know the answer to this too - every time I click on one of them I get no useful results.  My assumption is that, if for instance you click on the artist link, they would show all tracks for that artist... but that isn't the case...

Anybody?

Cheers,

Mark

MC 14:
if I click the arrow in the 'artist' column, i get the album by the artist
If I do the same in the 'album artist' column, I get all the albums by this artist

What arrow?  Even in views that use panes I don't see any arrows.

thanks

Enable the feature at Options - General - Advanced - Features.

Once enabled, as rick has advised, you should see, in the file list only, arrows beside the artist and album columns:

OK, I've figured out the problem:

The links are filters on the top level AUDIO view.  Unfortunately (for me) I have my top level view filtered by a smartlist and this means that the links are then a subset of that filter and so don't return the full set of results.

I'll have to see if I can work around this.
