Hello

As the title says when selecting an artist tile all their albums open to the right. Not to big an issue until I reach the Various Artists tile. My collection is 7TB in size and in the Various Artist section there are 744 albums. So scrolling to right to find an album towards the end of the 744 would take forever. Is there a way to get them to open downwards which would fix this problem.

Thanks

I'm not certain what you are referring to here - a screenshot might be useful.
However, my guess is that you might like to support this request.

(and that's a lot of Various Artist albums!)

Maybe, but there's no harm in trying.

My only other suggestion would be to consider splitting your Various Artists album into smaller groups by setting different Album Artists such as Various Artists - Blues, Various Artists - Jazz, Various Artists - Soundtracks etc. (or whatever groupings suit you). I can't think of any other problems this might cause (disclaimer: that doesn't mean there isn't any).

I think it would make more sense for the original poster to create a new tab and filter for his or her Various Artists.
