Music Library Manager > Context Menus

All the Music Library Manager's commands are available from the context menus, which are shown by right-clicking in the window, or by pressing the Windows' context menu key on the keyboard (two keys to the right of the space bar).

No screen space is wasted by fancy toolbar buttons which are rarely used.

The most common commands also have a shortcut key, for example F2 is for Filter by Properties and F4 removes the filter, see Shortcut Keys.

Track View context menu

Filter by Properties...	F2	Displays the Filter by Properties dialog box for choosing which tracks are shown in the Track view. A check mark is shown on the left of the menu item when a filter is active.
Filter by Text...	F3	Displays the Filter by Text dialog box, which can filter the Track view using a text in the the artist, album or track columns.
Unfiltered	F4	When a Filter by Properties or Filter by Text filter is active, this command turns off the filter so that all tracks are displayed again.
