    Question Regarding Instrument Title Dividers.

    Hello All. Apologizing in advance as I know that this is posted somewhere and I should be able to find it but cannot. I have a bunch of libraries that I am able to organize using KLU. However, I remember a post regarding how to make instrument title divider wallpapers. That is, for all of your basses, for example, you could insert a wallpaper title "Basses" above those basses; "Guitars" above all the guitar libraries and so on. So, in the attached screenshot, I would like to insert a wallpaper at the top that says something like "Ambient Dub IDM" to signal all the libraries below that wallpaper fall into that category. Screenshot 2025-07-01 at 9.50.02 AM.png

    Can this be done when looking at wallpaper views or only in Quick Load or some other functionality? The person who was posting about this actually posted some sample wallpapers for various instruments. I can't recall whether this involved making a fake library and naming a .nicnt accordingly or some other process. If you could point me to the post or give me directions/advice on how to do this, I'd very much appreciate it. Like the below. Many thanks in advance for any advice you could give.

    Hello.
    Yes, you have to create a new library.
    1/ Create a folder (for example "Ambient Dub IDM")
    2/ Copy any "NICNT" file from another library into it.

    3/ Rename NICNT to "Ambient Dub IDM.INCNT"
    4/ Open it in Notepad and Rename all the original names inside the NICNT file to "Ambient Dub IDM"

    5/ edit the three-digit number <SNPID>4f8</SNPID> (remember that it must be unique!! - it must not have the same number as any other original library - otherwise the original one will stop working in contact!!!)

    7/ Create or copy to the folder "wallpaper.png"
    8/ Load the library using "Add Library"
    9/ Copy all the libraries that you want to have in "Ambient Dub IDM" into it.

    Done :)

    To avoid using some SNPIDs more than once, you can use, for example, NICNT GENERATOR, or like me, have an EXCEL file where I write down all libraries and their SNPID numbers ...

    There are also a lot of useful programs:
    Doubley - Custom Kontakt Library, Libdropper (custom made libs), SnpidLocator, MINI-NICNT, etc.
