2015-05-06 18:46:11 James Lewis description Due to ambiguous behaviour when adding songs to a new playlist, users often loose the selected songs. If you select a number of songs, then select add to playlist, then create a new playlist, the songs do not get added to the playlist unless you then select the playlist... this is not obvious. It happened to me the first time, and I've seen it happen to other people, that they select a number of songs, select add to playlist... create their first playlist... which has 0 songs in it (they think it should be "add to new playlist"), then they click back to check what they selected and the back button clears the selection. Also, if you mis-clicked and got add to playlist, instead of queue songs... click back to try again, the selection is cleared. It seems to me that if you create a playlist with songs selected, it should add those songs to the created playlist, /then/ clear the selection.... and also that the back button should not clear the selection.
