Now we need to go back to Pane 3 and look at some more that con be done within this Pane.
Lets look at this area
As you can see we are in the "Music Search" tab as ringed in read.
Then we have the three buttons highlighted in Yellow. Pressing these switches between them
They control what you see in the rest of Pane 3 below.
The "head" button selects a view of the B2's music holding by "Artist" (as above)
The "disk" button selects a view of the B2's music holdings by "Album" or "CD" (as seen below)
The "musical notes" button selects a view of the B2's music holdings by "Track" (as seen below)
The "down arrow a A to Z" button ringed in light blue above selects the sorting direction
for the lists presented by the first 3 buttons.
Obviously, with a large music collections the data given in Pane 3 can be very long (it will take ages to scroll through it), so a "Search"
function is provided in the white bare area (circled in red below).
Here I am looking at "Artists" (see the yellow circle) and for all instances of the string "tch" (the case is ignored)
and it has found these two results very quickly.
If you wanted to find all your (.mp3) files then search would do this for you.
As you can see the Search facility is a GREAT HELP - learn to use it!.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next let us look at the two final buttons
The "Camera" button allows you to treat your SAVED YouTube downloads like you would the rest of your music
The A to Z Sorting function does NOT work in this view.
NOTE. From this screen you can rename, delete or even add a YouTube to a playlist using the three dots as described before.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The final functionality available in Pane 3 enables all the functions we have described for the buttons to be applied to Playlists.
The Button ringed in Fuchsia in Pane 3 above works in conjunction with the other buttons but switches the focus to a specific playlist.
Here I have selected the "Red" playlist circled in blue (in Pane 2 -- which we will describe later), which as you can see was built from individual tracks.
As you can see in Pane 3, with the Yellow ringed button selected, these tracks are the SAME as seen in the "Red" Playlist. (as seen above)
Now if the "CD" button is selected (ringed in yellow) below,
you will see that Pane 3 now shows the "Albums" from which the "Tracks" in the "Red" Playlist were taken.
Similarly
Selecting the "Head" button in Pane 3 switches the view to showing you the "Artists" to which the "Tracks" in the "Red" playlist belong.
This completes the function in Pane 3.
Next we will look at what can be done in Pane 2 in more detail.
