Grouping tracks for suites

[Joebugs]

Andrei,

Thanks for the new update. This looks interesting. Please can you explain how it works.

Regards

Joe

Ok I managed to group tracks; great feature.
I am sending a screen capture by email as the end track in the album view does not look good and needs to be shifted in line with the other tracks.

OCD keeps getting better.

I've just tested the new track grouping feature. It is potentially a great addition - especially for classical music such as symphonies and concertos with separate movements. Alas, the man-hours involved in going back and applying the feature retrospectively would be a serious deterrent.

The niggle pointed out by Joebugs that "the end track in the album view does not look good and needs to be shifted in line with the other tracks" is quite a big drawback as it stands.
I assume can be ironed out eventually.

Could those of you have solved the mystery of grouping give a brief explanation of how it works. Even where the find the magic word "Group" would be a help.

Go to Record properties, Tracks, Right click on the track you want to start the group, Go to Start Group. (Start Group is underneath Start Vinyl Side). Name the Group. Right click on the track you want to end group. End Group.

Thanks. And this displays where and how?

The group will be displayed on the album properties page automatically.

PS. Do not use this feature before the next update as I am informed the next update will reset any group settings.

Thanks for letting me know. I really like this feature, as it will work well for classical pieces that are often in multiple movements. I'm a little hesitant to go whole hog with its use, though. What might the drawbacks be? When listing all the works by a single composer, will I see the group title next to the name of the movement? For example, I now include the title in the name of the movement, e.g., Symphony no. 5 in C minor, op. 67 - Allegro con brio. What if I move the symphony name to the group title, i.e., "Symphony no. 5 in C minor, op. 67," and rename the movement to "Allegro con brio?" Will the list by composer simply show "Allegro con brio," or will there be a field next to it with the group title, Symphony no. 5 in C minor, op. 67?

Thanks

Thanks for feedback. This will be fixed in next update.
