Mode View Preferences

Mode View Preferences controls how JukeCab presents and navigates the main browsing modes,
including the preferred browse style, drill-down behavior, per-mode settings,
artist artwork preference, and automatic drill-down timeout behavior.

Setting Choices What it does
Browse View Preference Mixed / Strips / Art Sets the preferred top-level browsing style unless the active skin
restricts the available view types.
Final Drill Down View Title Strips / Art / Album Details Controls the final song-selection screen after choosing an artist,
album, genre, or decade.


Intermediate Album View

Opens submenu Controls whether Artists, Genres, and Decades drill into Songs or Albums,
and whether single-album artists can skip the album list.
Display Legacy Songs Mode Only On / Off When enabled for the current skin, only Songs mode is exposed.
The normal per-mode settings are preserved and return when this is turned off.


Individual Mode Settings

Opens submenu Provides separate controls for Songs, Artists, Albums, Genres,
Decades, Videos, Playlists, and Radio.
Preferred Artist Artwork Portrait / Logo Chooses whether artist browsing prefers portrait images or logo images.
Drill Down Timeout Off / 5 / 10 / 15 / 20 / 30 / 45 / 60 / 90 / 120 sec Sets how long an intermediate or final drill-down screen can remain idle
before the configured timeout action occurs.
Drill Down Timeout Action Top of Mode / Back / Songs / Albums / Artists / Genres / Decades Controls where JukeCab goes when the drill-down timeout expires.

Some browse modes or view styles may be unavailable when the active skin does not support them.
