Is albumlist jumping really needed on artistlist click?
Fishy - 8-1-2005 at 02:42 PM

When I enter an artist from the artistlist I, at least in 99% of the cases, do this with the intent of accessing the albums from the songlist. Ejukebox jumps down to the corresponding albums in the albumlist at the same time. Accessing artists from the artists list could be way faster, if one dropped the paralell albumlist jumping and just showed the albums in the songlist. What do you guys think?

Problem is: For us touchscreen users, it is the only way to get to another part of the album view reasonably fast.

1. Scrolling down is not really possible on large collections due to the tiny tiny scroll handle on the scroll bar that you can never "grab" correctly

2. The new scroll buttons work excrutiatingly slow and are currently unusable on large collections

If Audiosoft would fix the scroll buttons, then I would agree with your idea. After all, anything that could speed up eJukebox would be welcome, even if it means losing some functionality.

Ah! Seems like making the jump optional could settle things then. I agree to the other issues your mentioning. The autoscroll areas are currently to slow and the scroll handle is difficult enought to hit *with* a mouse. Maybe audiosoft should increase his album collection and beta ejukebox with more albums? :)

Actually I was talking about the new optional scroll buttons (disabled by default) which replace the scroll bar. They are very slow. And you are right, the autoscroll is even worse!

Har Har, that was truly a good one!!! Completely agree with you. Maybe we should all pitch in some money so that he can finally download his favorite 10.000 tracks from iTunes and work with a *real* collection. ;)
