In the settings page under "Phenomenal" go to - "design" there you will see on the right side of the screen options to set fixed views for each type of content .... For example setting the default photos view to "photos" (I'm not in front of my PC so I don't remember the exact name, sorry) will make kodi show you this view every time the media inside is photos.
Same with artist, albums and songs.

Yeah - that's it - great, thanks for this hint !
I was blind for this setting "Design - Enable Forced Views" Even with your hint I had to search
So, thanks a lot, it works.

Only one very small issue left.
With forced views set it sometimes appears that a folder wouldn't switch to my preferred "forced view". This only happens seldom and seems to only happen to folders which haven't been selected before. But if I select e.g. a subfolder and then back to the one before - then it suddenly shows the correct view. Maybe it happens if I select and enter a "never before" folder too fast - like search with cursor down and immediately press enter. If I wait before enter - it seems to be ok.
This might be a little tiny bug ? Which isn't boring at all.....

So - I'm very pleased and it is a great skin ! ! !
