Theater View menu
« on: February 09, 2014, 08:56:27 am »

Have been spending some time modifying Theater View to my needs to the extent possible. In the initial menu under Audio (Artist, Genre, Showroom, Composer, etc.) when I choose Artist or Composer, the next View is what I guess is called a Cover Art view (or thumbnail) where it shows all the Artists or Composers in columns and rows with the cover art. When you choose a particular ARTIST you get all their albums in a similar view. However, when I choose GENRE, the view is very different. I get a list or just rows with each Genre in a row (genre name to the left) and thumbnail covers over to the right. What is interesting is that this view continues on through the menu. When I choose a GENRE, the next view which is by ARTIST is also a "list" view where all the artists are listed in rows with the artist name to the left and the cover art for each album to the right in that particular row. Is there a setting somewhere for GENRE that I have missed to make it behave like ARTIST or COMPOSER? Have looked in the library fields, in Theater View options, and cannot find anything different about GENRE to cause it to act this way. Is there a modification I need to make to a skin? Appreciate any help. Thanks,

When in Theater View, go up to the "More" item on the top row and then go down one row to "Toggle List Style".  There are several styles to choose from.

I once watched a very smart young software developer look at a piece of new software.  He went very quickly through every menu to see what was there.  It took him less than a minute.
