Title: 'Enter' play highlighted track
Post by: greenday1987 on March 10, 2011, 03:30:12 PM
When viewing the tracks in album art view I can use the arrow keys (up and down) to highlight different tracks but hitting enter key doesn't play them. It would be useful and logical imo if it did play the highlighted track.
Thanks a lot

Artwork view doesn't show tracks, so you must mean another view...

But to answer your question:

alt-enter -> "Play Now" the selected tracks.
control-shift-enter ->"Queue Next" the selected tracks.
control-enter ->"Queue Last" the selected tracks.

Right click on a track shows a popup menu with the key accelerators for each action.

Yes it does. I have it grouped by artist which you then open up to show the albums from said artists (n release year numerical order) with the tracks shown:-

I'd still far rather hitting just enter on the highlighted track played it and like I stated, that just seems logical to me

That's "Album and Tracks" view. "Artwork" view only shows the album art.

FWIW, the Preferences->Hotkeys settings has an entry for "Play Now". Don't know if you can set enter as an hotkey though, and if enter as hotkey works, and if it doesn't interfere as enter doing other things in other places...
