Title: creating a new category
Post by: jakub on December 29, 2012, 01:49:10 pm

How do you sort a library by adding a new category, such as composer. I would like to display it under 'Audio' tree besides 'Albums', 'Artists' etc. After 2 hours of reading the help manual and futile attempts I can't do it.

Thanks,
Jakub

Right click Audio, and select Add Library View...

- Select a view type that approximates the one you want (panes, categories, ..., or blank).
- Name it
- Right-click the newly create view and Customize
- Set View As to the type of view, if it is not already set to the desired type
- Add the Categories you want, such as Composer
- Additional rules are set on the right-side; maybe you only want Classical music to show here, so use Set rules for file display...

That's the idea.  See:
