Album List sorting

Hi all, I'm pretty new to Foobar2k and I can't seem to figure out how to sort things how I'd like in the Album List. Here's a screenshot:

Currently, albums in the Album List are sorted by date, ascending. As a result, when you click on an artist in the Album List, it appears in the Library Viewer Selection playlist sorted by year, ascending, as well. I want to sort the opposite way - by year descending, so newest stuff is always on top in the Album List and the Library Viewer Selection playlist. Is there a way to do this? I've been searching for days.

Thanks,
Zakk

I'm afraid no.

The album list is always sorted by what is displayed in ascending order, and items sent to the selection playlist use the same order.

Other than displaying something like $num($sub(2009,%date%),4) instead or in front of the actual year, there is no way.
