Description Christian 2014-08-10 12:45:13 UTC
Open the left bar to the Albums view and make it show lots of albums. Select one, right-click and Properties. Change something (e.g. the date), OK.
Expected result: Same album is still selected, the view remains basically the same.
Actual result: A different album is selected (not sure which one, usually one about 15 places up in the list), the list scrolls, and the album view changes to the other album.
This makes it difficult to find which album I was looking at before, because there is no "take me back to the previous view" button either.

Mohamed,

I think this behavior can be relevant of your Album Tree-view sort method introduced before this summer. Right ?

Christian,

Which kind of Album Sort method do you use from "View/Sort Albums" menu ?

Hi,

The selection issue is fixed now,
After changing the Physical album meta data the album tree-view is resorted according to the selected sorting setting in "View -> Sort Albums"

P.S: you can get back to the previous view from "Browse" menu, "Forward" and "Backward" actions

Thanks for reporting the issue.
