Playlist keyboard shortcut?

macaroon · 5th March 2004, 10:00

I often get lost scrolling up and down long playlists. It's true

(And there's never a policeman around to ask for directions)

Is there a keyboard short cut to scroll the current playlist so it centres around either the song currently playing OR the selected track?

Cheers

That's a good question. I don't have an answer, but a suggestion that might help a little bit...
When a track starts playing, the playlists jumps to that area. Or when you've clicked on a next selection you had to have the playlist positioned there.
So,if you hppened to note approximately where the playlist slider is positioned at that time, you can jump the playlist back there by simply clicking there in the slider column.

spacebar = center playlist to current playing track

Why isn't that in the keyboard shortcut list?

Geez Egg, another "hidden" tip. Well, as I've said before, I always learn something from you when I get involved in a thread. Thanks again.
