Legacy Tag window works great for the Lyrics field edit box, providing a full-height scrollable text field.
The Tag Dump appears to be just another large scrollable text field (though appropriately it is not editable). However in the Modern Tag window it is much more restricted in height compared to the Lyrics field edit box. And unfortunately there is no Tag Dump in the Legacy Tag window.
Requests:
(1) In Modern Tag window, improve Tag Dump by having it expand into available space, just like the Lyrics field edit box.
(2) In Legacy Tag window, add Tag Dump for a full height scrollable display just like the Lyrics field edit box (though it should remain non-editable).
(3) In Modern Tag window, a full height scrollable display, as requested above by @HPBEME and @MusicBringer, would be a good local fix for both Lyrics field edit box and Tag Dump display. Maybe double-clicking the label of a Modern large text edit field (or add RMB "edit window" option) could "simply" overlay a full-height box, i.e. hide the Modern Tag window until edit text box is dismissed (thereby avoiding a separate trip to the Legacy Tag window).
(4) For additional cleanup, please consider: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,132304.msg922604.html#msg922604 .
Thanks.

There actually is a tag dump window in the Basic (a.k.a. legacy) window. At the top there is a small thumbnail, and to the right of that is text. The top text line is a hyperlink, which opens a scrollable tag dump window at the bottom… which BTW, is larger/taller than the Advanced (a.k.a. modern) version of the tag dump.
HPBEME:
Thinking about it some more, I remembered that earlier in this thread EnglishTiger found another non-obvious way to open the tag dump in the Basic tag window. If you set the tag window to Show All Fields, look for one named Format. Click on the text to the right of the label, and that will also open the tag dump window.
Matt:
More height here:

I really like the change.
HPBEME:
Will look at you go... working on a holiday and everything - thank you Matt! This is going to make a ton of people very happy.
I just downloaded it and there is a little bug though… no issues for lyrics and artist bio, but when I click on field for album review or notes, as soon as I scroll via my mouse wheel or click on the scrollbar, it instantly closes the edit window.
Hopefully fixing that for those two fields, and any other large edit field, will be straightforward.
