Only the albums of the chosen stack are displayed, the stack works like a filter. The detailed

browsing view is displayed with focus on the first item. All other items of the selected stack

are listed below, a scrollbar on the right screen margin enables you to scroll the detailed

browsing view.
Double-clicking a single item in the detailed browsing view starts its playback. Playback

controls are displayed on the lower task bar. Switching to another screen will not stop the

playback. A small display in the lower left corner of the main window stays visible and shows

the title and play back time. You can click this display to get back to the music browsing

screen.
If you hover the mouse pointer over an item in the browsing view, a check box is displayed in

the upper left corner. In the detailed browsing view, the check box is listed in the rightmost

table column. Activate the check box to select the item. This way, you can make a selection.

Album covers also work as selector. If you click the cover art all album items will be marked

as selected. It is possible to select over several stack groups, too. With a click on another

item (clicking the thumbnail itself instead of the check box) the selection will be removed and

you can start a new sample. A preselection may be useful if you want to create a playlist of

selective tracks.

Below the upper task bar of the main window, sorting and searching options are additionally

displayed. The following setting options are available for music browsing:
