Title: Tagging library fields
Post by: Fred1 on October 30, 2012, 08:59:55 am

When i tag my library, i often use the built in "clean file properties" menu item.
But the capabilities of this tool are somewhat restricted.
Therefore i'd like to extend it a bit, but i don't know how to do this.

Is it possible to write some "macros" with expressions, that are applied to the fields of marked lines?
How could i start those "macros"?

I would really appreciate some hints from you.

Thanks, Fred.

you can populate any field with an expression of your choise, just add  =  before

Thanks for your reply!

I read that, too, in the wiki.
But that's not quite what i want.

It should work over multiple fields with a set of one or more expressions.
Perhaps started by a button-click, so i don't have to paste a complex expression to the field editor every time.

Ideally the "Clean File Properties" dialog would be extendable with expressions of my own.

tag on autoimport was introduced in MC17, there you can fill multiple fields with expressions and else
