Title: Column problem
Post by: Dawgincontrol on December 17, 2014, 04:56:12 pm
In Standard View I have made changes to the columns in the Audio>Albums header; both in width and categories.  

It lasts for a while then reverts to a trash listing with "Image (large thumbnail) leading off reading from left to right.  This category is blank.  

Next is "Stack Icon"  I have no albums stacked.  Nothing shows here either.

Next is "Name", "Artist", "Album", "Rating", "Genre", "Track #", "Duration", "Bitrate", "File Type", "Date", and "Filename".

The columns are not auto-sized  or anything that resembles a cognitive width.

No matter what I have tried at some point Media Center will revert to this.  I know it does this if I edit the sub-fields" of the "Album" category, but it also does it in what seems randomly.  I have saved the view as a new Category, still happens. I've tried overwriting the original; still happens.

I have edited other categories with no known problem or relapse.

Any ideas would be appreciated.  I have even tried deleting the old "Album" view and building a view, but sooner or later it happens.

What version are you using?

Are you editing on a client connected to a Library Server?  If so, edit on the server.

I run into this also... very frustrating after spending time to set up the field. I have not found a reason as to why this happens as yet. Stand alone computer

Version 20.0.47.

Editing on the server.  I wish I could tell you why it does it, but it will stay for a while, but inevitably return to the screen described previously.

Is there no way to edit a column permanently?

It's supposed to be permanent.

If you ever figure out what causes the changes to be lost, please post.
