I'm sure there's no need, because marc2k3's component no doubt does the job fine. And obviously it let's you do exactly what you want: create a filter.

But just so you know, it's easy to see all your tracks with no embedded front cover in Mp3tag.

There's "Cover" column by default and you can also filter by NOT %_covers% PRESENT.

Then you could make add a new "Cover not present" tag field or something and tag them all and go back to fb2k.

Thanks InchPerfect

I have tried the query search that you propose NOT %_covers% PRESENT and it does not work neither in Re-facets nor in filter search (columns ui). And I understand that it is logical that it does not work since the %_covers% field does not exist in title formatting.

Maybe I didn't understand you correctly. If so, I would appreciate it if you could explain it in more detail.

As Porcus said, I was talking about Mp3tag.

The only thing I'm still missing in ReFacets is a cover view. As a workaround I could imagine a playlist next to it. However, I am missing the "selection action" function in ReFacets, i.e. to display in a playlist with just one click. I wish that.

Is there a plan to display the total number of column items as the original facets did? It's only a little thing but sometimes it's handy.

Also, is there a way to move the re-facets toolbar (search, filter etc) to the bottom I've missed? For my GUI configuration, the toolbar at the top looks rather ugly.

Cheers.

My folders on the SSD are sorted by C:\Music - MusicType - RoughGenre - Artist - Album - Title.
in MediaLibrary: C:\Users\MyNAME\Music\MusicType\

RoughGenre is AustoPop, BluesRock, Rock, Country, Guitar, Jazz, Klassik, R&B and so on.

In Facets I used Folder = $directory(%path%)
I use two ore sometimes three times „Folder“ and then Album and so on...
The first 2 (or even 3) columns work perfectly with my folder structure: (Just like on SSD)

Till beta 26 ReFacets Folder = $directory(%path%) didn’t work anymore
I used Folders with „SpecialFolder“ as a workaround:
SpecialFolder = $directory(%path%,$sub($len(%path%),$len($replace(%path%,\,,|,,/,)),N))
N= 2,3,4,5,6 or 7

But in ReFacets (beta 27 and 28)
is „Folder“ a total disaster:  (Folder = $directory(%path%)
My special Workaround  SpecialFolder = $directory(%path%,$sub($len(%path%),$len($replace(%path%,\,,|,,/,)),N))
doesn’t work anymore, shows pointless or a mix of folders and albums.

What’s going on with ReFacets when using Folders?
And yes, simple Genre - Artist - Album - etc. works.
But I don‘t want to see 1000 Genres with special-SubGenres  in the first Column!!!

I went back to Facets.

First of all thanks @Porcus for the correct ReFacets thread.

Original Facets has two features which I find it really useful:
- "Select action:" "Send to selection playlist... (default)"
- the ability to arrange Facets also vertically

Could these be implemented please. If yes than I could dump old Facets :)

Gentle reminder from Reddit.

It would be so good to have album art back in ReFacets ...

...Hope you're planning to replicate the "Display/Album art (no labels)" feature of Facets - it was really great for a plain, fast grid...(a) custom drop-down lists to be filled from values in tags, such as genre or composer. Much like a Facets column but in a combo box - This would allow for a greater grid of album images.

In the micro, a lot of people have referred to facets' 1.0 images as "cover art" or "album art", where in fact, the art display was one of five display options: (1) cover front, (2) cover back, (3) disc, (4) artist, and (5) icon. In the macro, if/when implemented, it should also lessen the need for the abandoned ESPlaylist
Neither an audiophile, nor album snob. Why do ratings threads always have someone saying they don't believe in rating music?

hey! can reFacets refresh with any tags change immediately?
for example: I click an album, change its date (year), then save and it doesn't change in ReFacets panel list. Or maybe some button to force refresh?

also: please add Remove menu item when selecting category in Playlist mode.
You select some tracks and Remove from current playlist

I enter a sort string, but it is still sorted alphabetically. The panel displays all the listens for 1 week, but in alphabetical order

%last_played% DURING LAST 1 WEEK SORT DESCENDING BY %last_played%

Hi,
here's a little bug(!/?) ...

"Multible Columns" can only be deactivated / activated for all panes. This can no longer be deactivated in individual panes if a pane has several columns. It would be better to be able to switch it on and off individually.

... and another request: Integrate album art into refacets as in Facets with labels or no label and choice which album art!

The biggest problem with 64-bit is the lack of ReFacets missing cover.

if the refacets would at least react to a single click, you could display a playlist with covers

You mean like when you enable Preferences -> Media Library -> Library viewer selection playlist?

Yes, but with single click.

Hello, I have 2 bugs to report:

The "First release" column just reads in the "Date" tag the same as the "Last release" column. It should read in the "<ORIGINALDATE>" tag instead. Beacause it doesn't, what happens is that my "Album" pane puts the oldest albums on top of others when an artist is highlighted in the "Album Artist" pane, just because they're remasters or re-issues w/ a higher "<ORIGINALDATE>" value than the "Date" value of other, potentially newer albums in terms of the 1st release. Basically, I can't sort discographies in reverse publication order, only chronologically (+optionally in reverse).

The "Items" column, when present in the "Album Artist" pane, counts all the tracks from all albums instead of reading in the albums count only. So now, I'm getting insane numbers in that column, like "111" when there's actually just a dozen of albums from the album artist. It works like what I'm after in the old Facets component. The individual tracks count should be applicable only in the "Album" pane.

Hi,

Couldn't find anything about it in this thread.

How do I get a (pseudo-)transparant background for ReFacets?

I'm just reading Facets documentation and I can see there's what I'm looking for:
Code: [Select]
Items: Number of tracks.
...
Subitems: Number of subitems in the next pane.

So the "Items" column behaves as it should now but "Subitems" column is what's missing in the current stable ReFacets. And I can see it's already requested. Sorry.

In ReFacets, for those who don't have a mouse but use the keyboard, is it possible to move between one column and another with the keyboard?

Should special shortcuts be created?

After entering the query toolbar, results in ESplaylist (set to follow) doesn't refresh until user selects All [See Video]

1. [$year(%date%)] only reads Year
That makes<field> HAS <string> to not work

2. Unknown shows at end for Year but at top for genre
When using $if2([$year(%date%)],'('Unknown')') Unknown shows at end but when using $if2(%<genre>%,'('Unknown')') it shows at top

Hi,
The first clic on a facet after updating the library reloads the list, and aligns to the first record. So one needs to clic anywhere within the facet to allow for its reloading before scrolling to the desired record (or otherwise scan/scroll twice)
