Would it be possible to choose which fields the filter panel filters? Right now when i search for '2010', some albums pop up that have an album ID or barcode with that sequence of numbers in it, when i was obviously searching for a year . The biggest cause of problems there are the lyrics and comment fields, which tend to have a lot of information in them (ie. searching for 'the beatles' returns songs that have embedded lyrics about the beatles).


I found out about advanced->tools->search filters. They work in columns ui, so no need for my request .

I don't quite understand the columns ui logic for track selection.  When I click on a playlist in the Playlists panel, all tracks in the playlist are displayed, but none is shown in the playlist as being selected.  Now if I do a Quick Tagger operation (accessed via keyboard [context] shortcut) then it is applied to ALL tracks in the playlist, despite the visual appearance in the playlist being that NO tracks are selected.  I also notice that the Item Properties panel shows a multiple description, so multiple tracks are apparently selected despite no visual indication in the playlist. 

Can I change the behaviour of this?  I'd prefer it to be obvious if I'm at risk of overwriting hundreds of tags at the press of a button, and would prefer it to be much harder to "select all".

Thanks,

Mike

Sure.

how to set playlist style like zebra line ?

isn't this option for stripes enabled by default in CUI?

however, you can make it adding this lines in "globals: style tab":
Code: [Select]
$if($strcmp($mod(%list_index%,2),1),
,
$set_style(back,$rgb(some_color))
)

Haha, it took me an age to find it actually, I was looking in the preferences menu all over the place, switching on and off nearly everything known to man. It was hidden in plain "View"! 

By the way, I don't suppose it's possible to change the color/effect the tabs of a playlist-tab view, right? I would like to make the background of "locked" ones (autoplaylists) a different color (like yellow for example)... Just a suggestion. Sorry I haven't read the whole thread, it's too long, so maybe someone already suggested this or it was already discussed...

Hi musicmusic, is it possible in the future to have multiple columns playlist configurations?  That way someone can configure a button to switch between different playlist views.  For example, if I have one playlist shown in one way, it would be great if I could hit a button and switch the layout of the playlist to another.  I know you can use playlist filters (hide on, show on, etc.) to achieve different playlist views, but one has to send the playlist contents to another playlist with the correct filter name/wildcards in order to get a different view of the same list of songs.  Basically, I'd have two identical playlists using the different playlist filters just to get two different views.

I had initally setup two layouts, one with regular Columns UI playist and the other with NG playlist, thinking that I would be able to have two playlist configs only to realize that whatever changes I had made to the Columns UI playlist also affected the NG playlist settings.  The workaround suggested was to have layout 1 with NG playlist and layout 2 with EL playlist but I find the configuration for EL playlist to be really confusing while the Columns configuration is great and easy to use.  With the DefaultUI you can save different playlist layouts and load them with a custom button, but I like Columns UI and its plugins too much to make the switch!

Thanks!

I think it shouldn't be like this: If using Ctrl-click to select some items in NG Playlist, and accidentally (while still holding Ctrl) click outside playlist item - orange area (i took a screen-shot, was hard to explain):


which usually happens when selecting groups by clicking on title, selection is reseted

hey im new to foobar and columns ui but have spent the past day trying to get the program just the way i want it and i feel im almost there!

ive managed to find out how to do most stuff searchin on firums like here (thanks!) and google but im having trouble finding out how to do one last thing:

is it possible to show/hide groups & album art in an NG playlist when sorting by certain columns?

e.g.
when sorted by album artist i want it to display groups and album art.
when sorted by anything else i want it to not display groups and album art (and if possible, unhide the album and year columns. not important though)

here is a screenshot of my setup sofar:

(clicking on the small column immediately to the left of artist will sort by album artist, then by album, disc, track

you can use the "playlist filtering" options on the grouping tab and on each individual column to show/hide stuff. you'd need to create different playlists for each view you wanted to use.

I wish there was a way to have two or more columnsui settings so that one could switch between different views using a custom button, and you wouldn't have to use playlist filters or think about naming the playlist correctly just to get the view you wanted, or have to send a playlist's items to another playlist just to get a different view.

Hi there,

Sorry if double posting, but I didn't find the way to perform a search in the whole topic 
I have installed ColumnUI and it is very nice, thx, especially for the album art feature in the playlist, cheers

I have 2 questions :

1. How can I change the color of the font of the groups titles?

2. Is it possible to replace the playlist selection, on the left, by the album list selection (the one provided by the default interface, Library/Album List).

Thanks in advance

Pat

Display > Columns Ui > Playlist View > Grouping tab, and put an rgb code at the beginning. $rgb(170,170,170), for example.

You need to download the library tree component, I think.

Do you know if I can also change the color of the line after the characters?

Okay, in Columns Ui > Layout, remove the playlist switcher, then right click on its parent vertical splitter and select Insert Panel > Library Tree. Is that what you meant?

Also in addition to what Bollerkopp said you can add $tab() to the end of the header to remove the line completely.

I'm happy he did, I just uploaded a screenshot to ask about this myself. I probably wouldn't have noticed if he didn't post a screenshot  I don't think the option is obvious enough - how about another toggle in Preferences?

Just wanted to say this plugin rocks so much.

I agree to what was posted above, took me quite a while to find out as well .
