Last Played ? Format Change?
« on: December 27, 2005, 07:28:34 pm »

The "Last Played" column used to show something like "1.3 years ago" but now it shows the actual date/time of the last playback. 

Or maybe there is another field that shows the "1.3 years" ago and I can't remember it's name?

If the field will now show the date/time, I'd like to suggest that all the date/time elements be zero padded so all the elements line up in the column

1/1/2006  12:34:45
12/12/2005  12:34:45

01/01/2005  12:34:54            // zero padded look better to me

go to customise current view.

remove your last played column.
choose add > advanced expression...

name it Last Played, the expression will be: FormatDate([last played], elapsed,never played)

This will get you back on familiar ground :)

Thanks!  I'll give this a try.  I appreciate you taking the time to provide a solution!

Works great and the word "ago" is no longer displayed making the field width narrower which is a good thing.

It does not sort properly though, it sorts by the text in the field, not by the actual date any longer.  But that is minor - Thanks again.

you could add [last played], I mean the default library field [last played], to the "sorting" rules of the customise current view dialogue.

Thanks but I don't have Last Played in my normal sort, but I sometime want to sort by Last Played by clicking the column header, and that does not work correctly.
