Little doubt about Columns UI, how to hide/show album tracks...

Hello
I just need to solve this little problem to make my foobar2000 be perfect.
I have columns UI installed, and it works fine. When I drag and drop a folder with music, it detect all its track and show perfectly all the track in this way...

An example...

Trancern Official Compilation 34.2
Paul Vinitsky & Lo-Fi Sugar - [Trancern 34.2: mp3s.su Official Compilation (April 2012) CD1 #001] All I Know Now (Paul Vinitsky Club Mix)
Sied van Riel - [Trancern 34.2: mp3s.su Official Compilation (April 2012) CD1 #002] Audio 52
Pedro Del Mar & Illitheas - [Trancern 34.2: mp3s.su Official Compilation (April 2012) CD1 #003] Bahia Del Sol (Pedro Del Mar Mix)
etc.
etc.
etc.

Okay... what I need is double click on the album's name...

Trancern Official Compilation 34.2
And hide all the album's tracks...

Now I want to double click again over it...

Trancern Official Compilation 34.2
And it shows all the tracks again...
Paul Vinitsky & Lo-Fi Sugar - [Trancern 34.2: mp3s.su Official Compilation (April 2012) CD1 #001] All I Know Now (Paul Vinitsky Club Mix)
Sied van Riel - [Trancern 34.2: mp3s.su Official Compilation (April 2012) CD1 #002] Audio 52
Pedro Del Mar & Illitheas - [Trancern 34.2: mp3s.su Official Compilation (April 2012) CD1 #003] Bahia Del Sol (Pedro Del Mar Mix)
etc.
etc.
etc.

How may I do this?
Thanks

Friend just click on the version link provided with date under ELplaylist section, further there is a doc. inside it in english. (In my case my browser is giving me an option to convert the page language  )

mrmister,
to save yourself a lot of effort, I suggest you go to DeviantArt and download a foobar2000 with ready-made skin by tedgo or Br3tt.
You will see the ELPlaylist in these skins fully configured as you want. All you need to do is play with the skin for a while until you feel comfortable,
then you dive under the hood and grasp how it was done, then you emulate it in your own foobar2000.

You're right, but the problem I have with this is I have DFX installed, foobar2000 installed, colums UI installled, I've created my own columns with the code... so quiting all and beginning from zero... if I have to do it, I'll do it, but if I can install ELPlayList or ESPLayList... and touch a couple of things to make it work, what I'll do with this is a decent videotutorial later on in Youtube, to help people... so if possible I want to configure it...

Yeah... I've found the links in the Japanesse page, I hope the author realice people speak english also, lool
Whatever , I know now the links... but... I installed... ES ESPlayList and not ELPlayList... I did that because seems to be more updated? and I saw in Youtube a video talking about grouping options but I did not understand anything.

Did I download the proper version? or should be EL?
I think ESPlayList is a complement to work with other complement, ColumnUI. Am I right?

Ok... so how do I the grouping / ungrouping thing? I mean, to retract/hide all the tracks from an album and viceversa?

I have in Preferences... Tools... ESPlayList and I have a tab about Grouping and other tab about Behaviour...

I guess I need some lines of code to make the grouping thing right?
Would you give me some of this to make the grouping/ungrouping please?

i dont use these playlists, you should try posting your specific query in the particular thread EsPlaylist, and do consider what dirty2 suggested you its the most appropriate way if you want to learn the things, you could try this keeping your standard installation as it is and installing another copy as a portable installation. Keep practicing and tweaking on the portable one while your standard one is totally safe.

hope this helps

That is a very nice idea... mmmmmmmm to make a portable installation I just should re-install again my foobar2000 and during the installation process selecting portable right?
