Keyboard shortcut taginfo/playlist
« on: July 25, 2013, 12:30:07 pm »

Hello,

Is there a keyboard shortcut for Tag Window -> Playlist? While in Audio mode?

The keyboard shortcut list has a shortcut for Tag Window (Alt + Enter    Tag Action Window (toggle) ), but how do I then get easily to Playlist (I would like to select them for the current song).

I use this a lot and it's a lot of clicking...

How about from Playing Now? If your playlist/audio view is loaded to current song click [alt+2] + [alt+enter] from number pad just keep the alt key down

this is easy and fast

This doesn't seem to work, ALT+2 does nothing and ALT+ENTER pops up the tag info window, ALT+2 Followed by ALT+ENTER (while holding ALT) Does the same.

No Playlist edit window pops up... (MC16)

ah ok I misunderstood  thought you wanted to tag from a playlist oops

Anyway this what I do ALT+2 will bring you to playing now, even in 16 I think

then  right click on song to add to playlist -- the first time you have to do this



then all you have to do is right click on the next song and it will be at the top of the menu like so -  it pretty fast

I think what the OP wants is for the Tag Action Window's Playlist field to be focused, so that he can select and copy them.  There is not shortcut way to get there.

You can add a Playlists column to your File List window (bottom window).  Thus, you'll see the playlist field value for all fills.

 ;D guess I'm really confused - I don't see why you'd want to be focused on the Playlist field - it gets updated automatically. You could also open up a new action window for a playlist and click to go back and forth form the tag window in the left frame ... but I probably still don't get  what the op wants to do  ;D

When you have the Playlists field available in the TAW, you can click on any playlist name shown in the field, and this will open the Playlists section in the Action Window.  From there, you can click on lists to add the track other other playlists, or remove the track from the current playlist.

The column suggestion above won't help with this.

If you use the default set of tags (Show Default Tags) in the TAW, then you can add Playlists (Also Show > Playlists).  This at least will make the Playlists field probably appear within reach in the TAW.

MrC underdstands correctly. This is what I want to do.

It's a shame that there is no shortcut to open Playlists in the TAW, but with the options provided by MrC I can get there more easily.

Thank you
