G The pace of the scrolling in a table can be set in the program settings  - [Folder General] either per page or per amount of lines!
|
|
|
| Because of the multi-functionality of these tables, the scrolling only works if no single field in the table is marked ( i.e. in order to edit this specific field). If a field is marked the scroll-mode can be reactivated if you hit the [ESC]-key on your keyboard.
|
|
|
| Apart from that - the - [ESC]-key cancels any kind of action in a table!
|
|
|
| A table with a list of titles can be used in lots of ways:
|
|
|
| Pre-listening of titles: Simply double click into the left empty (grey) column next to the desired title.
|
|
|
| With the first start of the pre-listening mode you will be prompted to set the directory where your Winamp player can be found ( winamp <> 3 ) .
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Sort titles : Any column can be sorted in ascending or descending order by clicking onto the column head. The fir sorting take slightly a bit longer because all data are put into a cache, after that the sorting is very fast.
|
|
|
Cancel sorting: If one wants to edit several title fields directly in the table a sorted table can get on your nerves because changed titles will be sorted into the table and the display jumps to the respective title after each editing. Something you might not want. This especially true for the column yoou are just editing in. die Ansicht zu diesem If you want to de-sort a column just press the  [cancel sorting] button in the toolbar.
|
|
|
| Consecutive sorting of columns : i.e. if you keep the CTRL-key pressed you can sort the preference column, then sort the artist in decending order ( keep ctrl pressed!) and then sort the title name in descending order - that gives you your most favourite artists with all their best titles at the top of the list !
|
|
|
|
|
| Change column width : As in any other table program- if you move your mouse curser onto the division line between two columns- the cursor changes and with pressed mouse button you can adjust the width of each column. The column width is stored in the user settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Change sequence of column heads : Click into headline of the columns at the desired location for the new column with the right mouse button and choose option [move column to here...... and select desired column title] :

|
|
|
|
|
| The selected column will be inserted left of your cursor position!
|
|
|
| Remove column: Right mouse click onto selected column title and choose option [remove].
|
|
|
| Select title :
|
| · | A single title can be selected by clicking left of the title into the empty column- the whole title will be marked.
|
| · | Several titles can be selected by keeping [Ctrl]- key pressed and selecting titles in the left empty column or
