Topic: New 2026 update display question
I personally have very little experience with VirtualDJ - asking this on behalf of my father who uses virtual dj for gigs but is not the most technically inclined. From what he tells me the song list display used to be a detailed list with no album art shown. It appears after one of the recent updates it added album art to the lists. We were able to remove the art from the list but it appears to have stretched each row out larger than is preferred and that spacing doesn't change regardless of whether the album art is there or not. Is there a way to revert it back to what he was using previously? Spent about an hour trying to no avail. I found the link to download previous versions of virtualDJ, but, looking through the patch notes, it is unclear when this may have changed (which version).

Best to check the amazingly detailed VDJ Manual. (especially the sections for the Browser)

Here is link on how to change from Grid view to Detailed view (from the Browsers Options menu dot).
https://www.virtualdj.com/manuals/virtualdj/interface/browser/toolbar.html

Browsers Options menu dot > Display Options > Display List as > List view

Which may be your question.


If you are in Detailed view.
All columns widths, can easily be adjusted, by moving your cursor to a division of the column label, and dragging, left or right.
 
I have seen that manual before but he doesn’t have the display option when I click on the radio button on the bottom left. I only see options for show only, root elements, database, export browser view, and color filters. I do vaguely remember finding grid view in the settings though and don’t think that solved it. Also, the issue is with the row height not column width and not seeing any way to resize the rows. Thank you
 
Perhaps we dont understand your problem precisely, so please upload a screenshot of the Browser view in trouble.
Since you are a "No-license" user (at least with the account you posted), you cannnot upload direcctly here and you will need to upload your image to a server (many available that can host files for free) and then post the link here for us to see and assist you (and your father) further.

My 2 guesses :
1- The TouchscreenMode setting in VirtualDJ is perhaps set to Yes ?
2- The BrowserPadding setting is set to Big ?

You just have to drag the column, expand or contract the width by moving the cursor to the dividing line between columns, you can also right click and disable columns you dont need.
 
@RICO : Ignore the previous post.

@DJ Dash El Mas Guapo : He said it's about the row height, not width.

Yikes, I missed that part. Thats weird. Perhaps changing skin, and reverting back to their original skin might make a difference
