Callie's list of new enhancements for 2018 doesn't say anything about soloing individual parts of style. This is what it says:

Mixer-like control allows style customization within the Stylepicker. This shows what tracks are used in the highlighted style in the list, and color-codes them according to the track types (MIDI/RealTracks/MIDI SuperTracks). There is also a menu button on each track, which allows you to change the instrument, disable/enable the track, or perform other track actions.

The rest of the What's New list is all about searching, copying, rebuilding etc the Stylepicker.

This is what I mean about confusing. The first half of this is talking about the Stylepicker only and it's correct, that's exactly what it looks like right now, I just checked my RB 2020. The second part talks about a menu button on each track. Now, you are no longer in the Stylepicker. It's not a menu button but it means you can double left click OR right click (why both?) in the Track Name area to the left of the track and a menu pops up that does all these things she writes about including soloing the track but this is AFTER you've exited the Stylepicker and ONLY if you use the Load Song Demo function I'll get to next.

Normally, if you want to audition a style you hit the green Play arrow in the bottom right of the Stylepicker and you hear the style. This plays all the instruments and you're trying to hear one part of the style in a mix you have no control over.

If you use the Load Song Demo function it exits Stylepicker and opens a new project and you see the style displayed in Track View like any other song. And yes, now you can control the mix or solo each individual track. However, you've just been kicked out of the song you were working on. Maybe you hear a part that might work but it's not playing in your actual song project. In order to test it you go to File Open and reopen your original song project. You then go through the process to generate it and don't like it? You have to go back into the Stylepicker, audition more styles, select one to test by using Load Song Demo, get kicked out of your project again, listen to the whole style, isolate, mute, solo parts etc. Very clunky.

I wrote about all of this in detail during the testing some years ago. This was probably around the time they started working on the Biab 64 bit version and the plugin and had no time to work on RB. I also put this in the Wishlist but I could do it again I guess.
