Is there a way to find the currently playing track in a Roon Playlist

Say you’re playing a track from a playlist you created - and then you decide you want to delete it from the playlist(s).

You’ve clicked away from the playlist, or you’ve swapped remote devices. Is there a way to tell Roon to find that track in any of your playlists? IE a ‘Show in playlist’ command?

In a word, no.

Thanks, too niche?

On the contrary, I think it’s a missing basic feature.
Lots of people have asked for it.
There’s probably a feature request or two extant.

if you activate the “show playlist links” option, on the album page you will find which playlists it is in

It shows it’s in a playlist but it doesn’t “show in playlist” as the OP asked.
You have to go to the playlist and then filter that to get to the track. Why can’t it just jump to the track in the playlist when you click on the playlist next to the track? Roon could take the track title and pre-feed it into the filter if nothing else.

once you click in the playlist, you can filter in the “track” column by entering the title

I’ve enabled "show playlist links’ but I don’t get the list below the track name-see above an MPU101 track from ‘Ambient’ playlist was playing but it’s empty below the track name in album view. Is there another step?

It’s strange. Have you tried restarting Roon or re-scanning tracks?

I can’t see the detail of the screenshot but the track/album has to be in your library before anything will show.

Thanks both of you, album in library and Roon restarted/library forced rescan, no indication under track name in album view.

EDIT

I restarted Roon server and a few tracks appeared as being in a playlist, then a few more- it obviously takes some time to ripple through. Many thanks for you kind help

But only if you know and find the song elsewhere an than get to the album. Otherwise no.
