Similar to what I’d like. Not sure if it’s just a settings change like above.
I have “Disney” and “Cars”
Would like to have Cars as a subfolder within Disney. So neither the Cars movies nor the Cars collection show up in the main library but Disney does.
Currently I can hide the movies but not the collection as well. If I try hide the collection, the movies show up.
My case is similar. I have the Star Wars movies all in a Star Wars collection, but I also have a collection for the AFI 100 Years, 100 Films. I don’t want this collection to hide the individual movies, but because it includes A New Hope, the original Star Wars movie displays along side the Star Wars collection that properly hides the others.
Even if I hide the AFI collection so that it only displays when you choose the Collections view, it still forces A New Hope to display by itself.
just double-checking feature suggestions…
are you specifically looking for a per-conflict override / prioritization or a general rule to prioritize e.g. “hidden” setting over “show items”/“show collection and its items” as e.g. requested here (2 merged requests):
My suggestion would be to add a ‘Hide in Main List’ option within individual movie options.
This way, I could add ‘Home Alone’ movies to a ‘Home Alone’ collection and hide them within that collection- then add them to a ‘Christmas Collection’ without hiding movies in that collection. Then I would got to each Home Alone film (or select all at once) and go to Edit > Advanced > Hide in Main (?) List.
The option could also be simplified to ‘Only show in collections’
