Also i've implemented auto-complete + helper to work together so OldAutoCompleteStyle will only disable helper.
If this means less opportunity for fumble fingers, Woot.
Looking forward to testing the change.

One feature I noted was that the auto-complete only applies to the last value in a multi-value list. Would be nice if it applied to the current value based on cursor location. But, not at the expense of breaking the base function.

I mean in 3.0 only first value had auto-complete functionality, but now all values will have this.

There are no fixed dates. An internal build is usually released within the week and tend to include about 15-20 fixes.
Pending in Build 1205 Status

Well, the auto completion only works for me when I edit something in the properties of a track (the field, however, must be empty; is it supposed to work like this?). When I edit something in the libary nothing is recommended. So if the new drop down menu also worked in the libary I would be satisfied.

Are you sure the genre exists, I usually will get a result after the second letter? Personally, I do not like the drop down because you then have to make a selection whereas with the previous way it would complete the entry for you. But I'll get used to it because like Owyn stated I do not think it will go back to the previous behavior.

Well, when I type for example a word in the genre tab MediaMonkey doesn't show any suggestions until I wrote the complete word. I don't know if this is a bug, but there's now no time saving for me anymore. Maybe I missed an option or something? Or should I do a fresh install of MediaMonkey?

I doubt it. And, I find it faster to use (once the crash problem was fixed) because:

- I frequently click on a 2nd-5th entry in the list. With 3.0 all you got was the 1st suggestion.
- I frequently edit mult-value tags. With 3.0 auto-complete only worked for the first value for the tag.
- I would occasionally get fumble fingered, hit the wrong key and loose the new value completely. Escape and start over time.
