Title: Irritating tag boxes
Post by: MrHaugen on February 18, 2006, 09:21:44 am

I don't really understand why there have to be this ugly tag boxes to the right of the album, artist and genre view etc, after selecting a song.

In my opinion there would be enough to show them while you hit F4 to go in Tag mode right??
It's this little things that catch your eye, especialy when using it on a HTPC with projector.

Please do something about this. It's just downright ugly

Any other opinions about this subject?

I don't think they are ugly.
Plus they allow you to tag without a keyboard.

My opinion is that they are pretty sweet like a lot of things in MC when you are first cataloguing your music collection.

However they do get in the way especially when trying to highlight and multiple files in a pane.

Luckily I have no need for this view any more since I the library view rocks.

Yea. I know they allow you to tag without the keyboard. But there are more ways to do that. It's no problem to configure a remote to use the F4 function so you can tag when you want to, or to use the mouse and use the menu.

There should have been a better seperation (visible or invisible) insted of grayed out and black. Because, when you use this for a party or similar, you only want a nice view, not the ability to tag (if you have done that perfectly on forhand).

I know the theater view is good. I expect that's the one you were reffering to datdude. And I will probably use that one after I get my remote correctly configured with netremote and girder and every thing.
