Help with a layout

[VastOne]

I am working on a layout and almost have it. 


1 - Show Artist / Album / Track  instead of just the Artist is showing now

like this

Artist
   |----Album
            |----Tracks

2 - The Search bar to be at the top of the Library tab (when clicked) and not a tab that I have it as now, and linked to the entire Library for the search.  - Already done.

3 - If possible, a line separator of each change in alphabetical sequence where

A---------------

and all the A artists

B --------------

and all the B artists

Etc...

I appreciate any help

[Quentin Sculo]

1) showing tracks is not possible currently in FilterPanes
to set the default to artist/album for the artist tab you can use this option : page_artist/type=artist|album

3) not possible currently

Sorry, both features are more or less planned, but I really don't know when it will be done. The FilterPane widget evolved a lot since its creation, the code is a bit messy, I'm not sure I want to add these features to it. So it will probably come with a redesign of FilterPanes or in a new widget.
