Title: Thumbmails - Stacked by Artist
Post by: dtc on November 10, 2010, 05:47:24 pm

I am just installing MC 15. On MC 14 I had views I (like Artist View) which contained all the albums by a given artist as a separatedly displayed thumbnails. In MC 15, I get all the albums by a given artist stacked under 1 thumbnail and have to clink on it to see all the albums. How to I get all the albums displayed separately. I remember fighting with this on MC 14 but for the life of me cannot figure out how I changed it. It is probably something easy. I just cannot find it.

Thanks.

Here is a screen shots of what I have on MC14 and MC 15.  In MC14, there are 12 Murray Perahia albums, 2 Yo Yo Ma, mutiple Alison Kraus, etc.  I want to see all of them, not a single entry per artist. On MC 15, I don't see the multiple entries, just one per artist, which expands to multiple albums when clicked. Any help is appreciated.

Here is the MC14 screen

and the MC15 screen

Fixed. In Customize View, I had selected category and then put in Genre, Artist, Album, since that was the sort order I wanted and the thumbnail text I use. When I drop category order back to just Album I am OK. I did not understand category order - I was using it as a sort order, which is not correct. Now I am a happy camper.
