Can the rectangular frame follow the playing "triangle"?

The Mac version foobar2000 really needs two features that the Windows version has.
Screenshots with the necessary functions are in the attached files.
Thanks in advance!

Center popup windows

my request is much more personal, although I believe it will help with accessibility and aesthetics.
simply make all windows (called on menu or on right click) may appear in the center of the interface, unlike currently in the upper left corner.
example: select a song>right click> utilities>send to playlist... The window pop-ups in the center of the interface as I suggested

Thanks

Find Within, or Search Within

Essentially, the search would only look below, or within, where you've highlighted.  Ideally, the result would be shown as highlights rather than changing the view of what you've selected like the Filter box for the library view does.  The way Revive Dead Items highlights items it can not resolve is a good example of what I'm suggesting for Find Within results.

So, if I wanted to find Beethoven's Op. 123 I'd highlight Beethoven (assuming all of Beethoven's works were contained within), ctrl-F (standard Windows find), and type Op. 123.  If there were any files with Op. 123 mentioned they would be highlighted in the tree below.

This would also be useful for playlists.  Highlight the tab, ctrl-F, ...

The current Filter box works well, but when you're done with the search you have to navigate back to where you were, assuming you were somewhere you want to return to.  It also is more involved to find a something like Op. 123 for Beethoven instead of all Op. 123.

Is there a way for artists starting with VA- (Van Halen and Van Morrison, for instance) to be treated as any other artist? They're all considered and treated like various artists.

Sorry if this has been answered. I'm not going to go through 18 pages.

Chances are you are using some custom skin / titleformatting that checks the first two characters and if those start with "va", it handles them differently (grouping or whatever). That is not how foobar works by default so that has nothing to do with this topic.

Feature Request: Playlist Manager UI panel.

It seems like a glaring omission not to have Load and Save on the right-click context menu, as per File > Load Playlist and File > Save Playlist.
It's your privilege to disagree, but that doesn't make you right and me wrong.

3. Option to configure which metadata fields are displayed in selection properties component.
This is possible in Columns UI, so I guess it would be nice to have that option available in Default UI too.
Yes please.

Choosing file properties and "Format from other fields", I have often needed to format from the same field. And sometimes move on to the next field for the same operation.
So ... come up with %<something>% for that?

%% is not useful for anything else under "Format from other fields", but then, not sure if it is a good idea for it to be so context-dependent.

Auto volume. Something like the old Vlevel component. DO NOT confuse this with a compressor.

I think you're confused.  Or at least, you're confusing me!

In any case, isn't this thread about the basic FB2K framework rather than the add-ons?

Are you some kind of fan? you seem eager to reply all my posts... Its starting to feel weird.
I'm asking for this to be added to the main app, not an addon. Its's a useful feature and many of us use volume leveling or compressors.

Hello, I hope for implementation of the "FACETS"-Component in fb2k (otherwise @Frank Bicking updates ist for v2.XXX)
This is (for me) a very useful component! It would be a shame if this component was not available in version 2.xxx

Hi :) foobar2000 staff

Could you make "SimPlaylist" and "Facets" default for foobar2000 v2.0?

https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_quicksearch is your friend.

If you combine this with enabling Library viewer selection playlist, activated when changed, then highlighting the files in question will bring them to that playlist. Then use the quicksearch window.
You can configure it to search in either
Database (nopes, that's what I use ordinary search for),
Playlist: type and hit Enter and a new playlist #Quicksearch will appear with the selection
Playlist (inline): will just highlight the matches
All Playlists: as "Playlist" but will retrieve from all open playlists,

Greetings,

I would like to suggest adding an advanced preferences option to control the creation/detection of the "running" file foobar2000.exe creates (and checks for.)

I use foobar2000 in portable mode, on one device at a time, synchronized between my devices using third-party cloud storage.  Most of these services offer options to exclude objects from syncing, however this typically only works at the "directory" level, not the "file" level.  This results in erratic behavior as it tries to sync the locked "running" file.

I would like to have the option to either:
A.  Have foobar2000.exe not check for or create the "running" file.
B.  Have foobar2000.exe create a permanent sub-directory for temporary files, wherein the "running" file can be stored.
C.  Have foobar2000.exe create the running file in a user-specified directory.

Option A would remove my issue entirely.  Option B would permit a user to exclude a specific sub-directory within the foobar2000 install folder, thus eliminating the issue.  Option C would as well, allowing the user to specify a temporary directory outside of their cloud storage directory.

I understand there are risks to the integrity of the program's data if multiple instances are ran, but this is a risk that I (and potentially others who use the program in this way) would be willing to deal with.

Move a song that's currently playing.

If moving the currently playing track, stop it, move it and then continue to play.

I correct the title or artist sometimes while the track I renamed is playing and would like this feature to move it to the correct folder based on the updated title formatting.

Different one.

Ctrl + Enter will always accept and close the properties dialog. Currently, if a field is the focused UI element then Ctrl+ Enter doesn't work.

Can we bring the lock pane feature back to the Foobar2k 2.0 build? I don't even know why it was removed in the first place, but it feels like such a massive loss.

Size locking is still there, see the various scale options. But you can't lock all sizes anymore, you have to pick which side of a splitter remains resizable.

That's the point. Accidental resize happens quite often, and it can be quite annoying. The Scale option also works, but it isn't as robust as the previous method.

Add support for INSTRUMENT (Performer) in ReFacets

Reply #449
Vorbis supports Instrument (performer) - https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Tag_Mapping#:~:text=INSTRUMENT%20%5B17%5D%20(with%20performer%3F)%5B7%5D
Example - Guitar (Billie Joe; James Hetfield); Bass (Jhon Campbell); Vocals (Taylor Swift); Rapper (Eminem)

Problems to solve -
1. Ignore value in bracket to only get Instrument in a Re/Facets column. Example -  To get all songs with synth.
2. See all Instruments by a Performer. Add ablilty to see all Perfumers for an instrument in another column.
4. Add support for multiple Performer per Instrument - In the screenshot posted see Tre Cool is separated.
