There are two problems with this: 1. If Auto DJ is open in the right track table, there is a spatial disconnect between the open feature and where the user has to click to access its LibrarySidebarExpanded. 2. The feature icon bar is relatively cluttered. To open the LibrarySidebarExpanded with your proposal requires searching through many different icons to find the desired one and understanding where it would open a track table if it would change the open track tables. Having an icon on the track tables for this will solve both issues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Get Mixxx, the #1 Free MP3 DJ Mixing software Today http://mixxx.org Mixxx-devel mailing list Mixxx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mixxx-devel
