Single Click, view selection (help)

Hey all,

Switched over to Mac from PC about 6 months ago, and the only thing still lacking in my transition is to bring my Foobar back better than ever. Currently setting up my layout (ty Foobar gods for the recent Mac update on this)
This is my current layout

splitter horizontal style=thin
 splitter vertical style=thin
  splitter horizontal style=thin
   splitter horizontal style=thin
    tabs position=top
     albumlist tab-name="Albums"
     refacets tab-name=“ReFacets”
    playlist
  splitter horizontal style=thin
   playlist-picker
   tabs position=top
    albumart tab-name=“Album Art”
    selection-properties tab-name=“Properties”
 playback-controls

I am running into an snag where I desire to single click on an album or (sub)category in album list/refacets and see the contents of that grouping in the section below. I am currently using the "playlist" as a view for these things, and double clicking on the album to create a new playlist, and thus viewing the contents that way. This is inefficient bc I'm just creating a bunch of unnecessary playlists. I know I was able to do this on Windows somehow, but I think I may be forgetting about some setting, or formatting option. Any help would be appreciated.

Other things I'm working on figuring out is how get refacets to display album artwork instead of text, and then go thru the connundrum of syntax and sorting. Thank you for your time ! I feel like foobar mac users are a rare and hearty bunch and I appreciate all of you !

No idea about Mac, but on Windows the single-click option is Preferences > Media Library > Library Viewer Selection Playlist = Enabled.
