A little dissapointed that this issue has not been acknowledged / fixed in RC-9 (1183)

Any movement on this issue?

Script has been mailed but you can grab it any time here

Thanks for trying Bex :)

I haven't yet checked anything but I'm sure you will do a better job than me Petr! :D
So I'm stepping out of this!

MoDementia,

you're trying with latest release, right (build 1173) ? Can you send me that script (petr < att > mm.com) ?

by Bex » Thu May 15, 2008 7:08 pm

I'll take a look at the script and see if I can find a solution.

Hahaha that not only adds the grouping immediately but crashes MM when I switch back to Album Artist Node :(

Switching from Album Artist to Custom Node NEVER changes the grouping/sort order.
Perhaps this works then:
SDB.MainTree.CurrentNode.NodeType = 22 '<-- AlbumArtist Node
SDB.MainTracksWindow.Refresh
SDB.MainTree.CurrentNode.NodeType = 255

You can also try to set your custom node to NodeType = 22. But that can give other strange behavior...

This doesn't work

In scripts it can be done like this:
SDB.MainTree.CurrentNode.NodeType = 12
SDB.MainTracksWindow.Refresh
SDB.MainTree.CurrentNode.NodeType = 255

That's what I use to reset any added sortorder to my nodes. It works if you have sortorder 0.
This didn't work either

If I leave the custom node in normal view it never gets grouped/sorted.

Switching from Album Artist to Custom Node NEVER changes the grouping/sort order.

Did you ever try this:
Did you try to refresh after you clicked on the Library node?
Does it work if you have normal view in your custom node?

by MoDementia » Thu May 15, 2008 9:24 am

So far all I can confirm is that everytime I click the node it has

NodeType = 255
SortCriteria = 0
SortGroup = 0

But eventually it will have the [A], , [C] etc grouping images/icons top left of the album art.

You can also try my Debug Helper script which give you these kinds of info on any node.

Just found it will check it out

Steegy has made an excellent site with nodetype values:
http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.p ... _structure

12 = Library node
255 = Custom made node

Did you try to refresh after you clicked on the Library node?
Does your Custom made node have sortgroup 0?
Does it work if you have normal view in your custom node?
