That was quick. Bravo. And fundamentally, it functions as I had hoped. I'll play with it for a couple of days, and give more feedback if I come across any glitches. Initial thoughts: choosing hierarchy levels by repeated right-clicking is fine for geeks playing with betas, but I think you'd need a more user-friendly way of choosing levels once it's out of beta. I know too many people who have never used a right-click button... And if I'm being hyper-fussy, then I'd say that I don't find this hierarchy system as elegant as the 'panes' view available in some media players/browsers (first popularised by iTunes, I believe, and much copied). In case it's not clear what I mean, I've attached a screengrab of jRiver Media Center, which I have set up with a viewing hierarchy in the Panes view. More importantly, I think the panes view is also easier to grasp for non-geeks. But from my point of view, the system you have devised is very usable. 14095 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9569 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91575 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
