I've not got into the XML side of Custom Browse, as it's the dynamic
browsing that does it for me more.  However, I'm looking for more
refinements :)  What I would like to know is how to change what is
shown in CB once I select something.

For example, if I choose Artists then Adams, I get in the top bar "Home
> Custom Browse / Artists / Adams".  In the next section I get "Name,
Duration, File Size, Album, Genre, Year, Search On" with the relevant
stuff to the right.  Finally in the bottom section I get "All Songs"
plus a list of albums.

The sort of things I want to be doing include:
- changing the album view so that it includes the artist, as with
classical you need both if you're browsing by genre (if I could do this
just with my classical library, separated with multi-library, that would
be totally cool)
- change the amount of info in the 'next section' bit described above
- lots more :)

What in broad terms I don't understand is where the layout stuff is
saved.  It looks like the various .template files in the plugin store
this, but it's hard to see which is used where.  These will be
overwritten on a plugin update, so I assume that any templates in the
respective plugin settings directories will supersede the standard
ones.

Is there any chance of a 'developer mode' that shows which template(s)
is/are being used by the current view?  This would allow me to see
specifically what each part does, and what impact amendments have,
without flailing about in the dark.  Any further guidance or
documentation would be nice - I really can't grasp what I need from
your (Erland's) wiki.

Cheers
