I'm not sure I understand. The issue that you describe is that there's no way to easily see all items that the user has selected in a view, but the solution described is specific to AutoPlaylists. If the problem exists in any view, why is the solution specific to AutoPlaylists? Or am I misunderstanding? |

The problem is in the Criteria. So for example you set the Criteria Artist equals and select 10 Artists from a Library of 10,000 Artists. There is no way to easily see what is selected once the selection list extends beyond the window width. Possible solutions: 1. Tooltip showing selection, however this may be unwieldy if user has 100's/1000's of items selected. 2. Multi-line, show full selection starting new lines as needed, still could be unwieldy. 3. Add show only selected, would also allow for easier deselection of selected items. image.png (25,084 bytes) |

Adding a tooltip (suggestion 1) would solve most cases. Ludek, please push if non-trivial. Note: another approach that might be anytime multiple items are check-selected (i.e. for auto-playlists, sync lists, multi-attribute fields, etc.) would be to always display the selected items at the top of the list. This allows users to more easily see what items are seleceted and to more easily deselect them. But this would be a future feature (especially since it's not clear that it would be desired behavior for playlist hierarchies). |
