Contents

This view is located in the Logical perspective, see view perspective selector to access it. It allows you selecting or browsing your devices upon a logical (genre, artist, album, track) point of view. In this view, you will find:

  • Genres (like Rock, POP, Classic, etc...).
  • Artists
  • Albums
  • Tracks (note that a single track can map several identical files)

Notes:

  • Cover and logical playlists are not visible in the tree.
  • Tree configuration (nodes expands, collapses) is saved for next Jajuk session.

You can select any item in the tree, all contextual menu actions will be applied recursively. For example, if you selected both Acoustic and Blues genres, then you right click and select Play shuffle, Jajuk will play randomly all your Acoustic and Blues tracks.

Dragging and dropping items

At any time, you can drag a selection and drop it over the playlist you want to add selection to the playlist (see view playlist editor). If current playlist is the queue Playlist (default), a drag on the selection and drop over the playlist editor will result into an immediate play of your selection. Play or Push default behaviour during a drag and drop can be set in the view preferences, Mode tab.
