if you are in Album view, and right-click an album to get it highlighted, and then Shift-click another album down the list, it selects all contiguous albums between the two points. This does not work in Playlist View.
Works for me (but I am on EA). However, the second click must be made toward the left of the list. If you click somewhere toward the right it doesn’t work. (I suppose this is the same as the play context menu also appears only toward the left of the list after a left-click)
Correction: Left-right is not the correct criteria, it’s that it does not work in some columns. E.g., the click does nothing in the Album Artist column but it works further right in the Album column
I guess there are some responsive and some unresponsive areas. This works for me, I don’t have to hit the icon. (Apple Silicon, macOS 15.1 but IIRC it was always like this for me):
This works in the Tracks View, but not inside a playlist. I just realized that I’ve been inside a large playlist this whole time. I’ll go back and edit my comments.
