Exporting filelist to html no sequence numbers
« on: December 08, 2013, 04:57:59 am »

I'm a new user and I've tried to use search, but no answer. When I export a filelist to HTML or any other filetype I don't get
any sequence numbers, I do get all the others columns. I can't find any way to turn them on or off either. Any hints to get them visible?

Using 19.0.87 trial version.

If you export 'Visible Fields', and 'Seq #' is visible, it will be included.

If you export 'All Fields', you will not get 'Seq #'.  This is because 'All Fields' means all library fields, and sequence is a playlist-specific field (ie. not tied to the files / library fields).

Thanks, but since seq is not visible at all, nothing will be printed. Question is, why is seq not visible? It's not selectable either.

Sequence # is not a library field.  It's just something shown in an ordered playlist view.

If you want a fancy or special type of exported list, you might need to export raw data (CSV, etc.) and massage it for display yourself.

Re-read Matt's reply in #1.  Add the columns you want and select Only Visible Fields in the Export Playlist dialog.

I've done that and I still don't get any sequence numbers.

Is there a Sequence column?  This column can be removed (temporarily) - I'm wondering if you did that.  If so, close the view, and reopen it to get the sequence number, or set the columns back to the defaults using Presets.

Thanks, been doing that too, nothing helps. Still no numbers.

Can you show some screenshots?  I'm afraid there's not quite enough info here to help you.

I tested the HTML output earlier today, and it worked fine.
