Topic: Adding existing Playlists to Subfolders

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi,

I've just come across some strange behaviour with the playlists.

If I add a subfolder I can then add a new playlist into that subfolder. However if I try to move an already existing playlist into a subfolder (as opposed to just altering the order of the playlists), it usually will not do it. And I also don't seem to be able to move a playlist nested in a subfolder to being un-nested.

However occasionally a playlist will move into a subfolder (I haven't yet worked out the conditions that allow this to happen - possibly if the subfolder already contains a few playlists already) but... all the existing playlists in that subfolder are then cleared of all their contents! :-( (it then of course cannot be un-nested again!)

Is this the way it is supposed to work, is it just my system or is it a bug?

Thanks for any help.

There are two symbols you will see if you try to drag a folder to another place




1 is for creating a subfolder
2 will just drag the folder to this location


(maybe it is the other way round. I'm not sure atm)

Thanks for that PachN. Very useful.

I think it's the other way round but it has made more sense of some of the behaviour I'm seeing.

I am still getting some strange, slightly random, behaviour such as when dragging a nested playlist up to the main playlist heading to make it a completely un-neste: the playlist sometimes goes in the right position (as an ordinary playlist), sometimes appears at the same level of indentation as the playlist heading and sometimes completely disappears! :-O

Might be something to do with the skin I'm using so I'll keep experimenting.

Thanks again for the help
