[REQ]: Customize columns by playlist?

Post by lizziev »

Hi there - I tried to search the settings, and the forums to see if this has already been discussed and/or requested. Apologies if I'm just missing it by not using correct keywords!

I would love to be able to customize the columns and layouts on each playlist, based on content. As it is now, it seems if I add or remove a column from one playlist, that change is made across all.

Just as an example of usage, I would like to see the rating on songs. Adding that column inserts it into all playlists, but I don't rate podcast episodes, so this just leaves a wide blank column in every podcast playlist. Column size and order also translate across playlists, so shrinking this column super-thin or putting it at the end of the row, to hide from view, means it is also hidden on the music playlists, defeating the purpose!

It would be SO helpful if we could customize the view of each playlist independently! Thanks for considering. And again, if I just missed where this is, I apologize and please help me find it! :wink:

Hi,
At one point MM was capable to save layout of every tree node, but that brought large number of complains that MM do not preserve settings, so now for similar tree nodes uses same layout setting.

On positive side we are currently reviewing list views and how to improve user experience.

Here is one of suggested improvements https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=21865

Feel free to suggest more.
