This window is the most convenient way to browse your hard
drive from within mp3ql. It can be used very effectively
in conjunction with the Shelf or on its own to organise folders and perform many
basic file management tasks. The context menu also allows
you to perform many of the advanced mp3ql actions, please
refer to the topic list for more information.
The Expand function is available from the context menu.
It provides you with a way to display all child directories
of a folder - to display any files that are within a directory
please refer to the Detail View page. There are two methods to do
this:
- Expand Children
- Expand Recursive
Expand Children - This option will expand ONLY
the child directories of the currently selected parent directory.
By child this means the immediate directory below the current
(parent) one.
Expand Recursive - This option will expand ALL
directories below the currently selected parent directory.
By recursive this means not only the immediate directories
but also the directories within the immediate directories,
and so on.
This is one of the pinnacle features of mp3ql. It enables
you to browse your music collection with each album folder
displaying the album cover (or any other image you may require)
from within the directory tree.
Directions: To enable this feature please refer
to the Preferences » Directories
» Album Directories help page. Once you
have specified your chosen directory(ies) this feature will
instantly be activated.
Notes
Currently only files with the extension .png will work,
to convert an image file into this format please use the
Image Tools.
