Title: Where is the Appearance option for a playlist - can't sort
Post by: Stars22Coach on March 27, 2021, 06:34:23

Newbie...
I created a playlist, but can't sort it at all (want Artist then Title)
Google search returned the following instructions:
Go to the AIMP preferences, then go to the Sort by Template tab in the playlist options. You'll find a template pattern. Right clicking on it will give you the list of all available variables. Then go to the appearance options in the Playlist tab and in the Format Settings box enter the desired pattern.
I have the template pattern as: %Artist - %Title
But, I cannot find the "Appearance options" for the playlist in order to enter the pattern into the Format Settings.

Hit the button with the up/down arrows to the left of the quick search box, which will bring up the "Sort by template" options:

Thanks, that worked.
The skin I'm using doesn't have that feature next to Search. However, by making my way around the border of the player, I found the pop-up showing the Sort by template option.
