Playlist editing..

statiti · 2nd July 2000, 07:48

Alright, this has to have been asked before, but i couldn't find it, so here goes. All i want (at the moment) is to be able to select large numbers of songs in my playlist window without having to continously click on each song while holding control. Is there some way to drag and select or something?
thanks

If you have lots of mp3s in one file folder, there is an easy way: on the playlist editor, just click the 'add' button then select 'add dir' and select the file folder with all your music in it.

Actually what I had in mind was more of something like windows uses, where you can click and drag to select multiple files at one time, except that I want to be able to do it in the playlist window (i.e. I want to be able to remove large numbers of songs at once without removing them all)
thanks

If you've got a bunch of files in a row to remove, you can click on the first one and then hold down the shift key while clicking the last one, and it will select those two files plus all files in between. You can then hold the control key while clicking to either select more individual files or deselect selected files. (Is this what you were looking for?)
