No way to "unrate" a song?

KEP · Post by **KEP** » Sun Sep 30, 2007 10:46 am

Seems if you accidentally add a rating to a song, there's no way to remove it. All you can do is set it back down to 0, which shows it as a bomb. I'd like to have a way to say a song is "unrated". Not possible?

Thanks...

You can set the rating as unknown - it's under the bomb setting.

Right click the song and choise properties (or shift + enter). There you can set the rating as "unknown".

Ahhhh... I was trying the primary interface. Nothing in the right-click menu. Okay, got it. Thanks!

But you bring up a good point. Why is "unknown" now in the primary interface ?

I meant "not"

I suggested this 6 months ago in this forum. But nobody cared...

Makes sense, for consistency, that it's available at any time by right-clicking on the stars. I have 50,000 songs, all unrated. No desire whatsoever to start now.

I care. I asked for the same thing with 2.5.5 version, as did several others. For consistency, the same options should be available from any and all method. I think it's just an oversight that it's not included.

I rate them as i listen to them and by chance remember/think to do it. eventually i'll get them all... but its gonna take a long time.

The problem is that in the main panel, moving the star to the halfway point is 1/2 star. Moving it further to the left is near impossible (too few pixels). We might be able to play with this, but that's why thus far, ratings can be changed to bomb or unknown via the Properties dropdown.

What about adding "unknown" to My rating in the right click menu? I assume the pixel problem is not relevant to that?

Yeah, not a lot of space. You'd have to just arbitrarily rule the leftmost 1 or 2 pixels to be 0 stars or unknown.

But at the least, "Unknown" should be in the right-click My Rating flyout.

Thanks...

Tiago,

It's hard to refuse anything you ask for

I've added this to our todo list for 3.0, but it may get pushed...
