I like this Mo, looks like it has a lot of potential. Would love to be able to select and update a whole album or playlist, I've just started tagging using the Custom (1) fields to separate Male and Female vocals, still working on the best way to use the others. I want to get it right the first time because I have around 110,000 tracks and it's getting harder and harder to wade through everything. Thank's for the prompt service too. LOL

[MoDementia]

Glad you like it

For bulk updates use the "real" properties form, this is mainly a way to keep an eye on fields while your browsing/playing and fix up the odd typo etc.

[MoDementia]

***Warning***

I'm pretty sure this is a MM bug not a script bug reported here

Basically it means DO NOT use the script with tracks selected in the Now Playing List panel. Use the Now Playing node if needed.

Another possible MM bug reported here Annoying but doesn't effect function

Fixing Text Box Borders

1. Edit the ...Scripts\PropertiesPanel\skin.css or your chosen ...\Scripts\MonkeyRok\skins\Chosen Skin\skin.css
Copy the .odd and .even sections , rename them .odd_border and .even_border and add the line border: 1px solid rgb(184,143,98);
Change rgbrgb(184,143,98) to what ever colour you need (one of the otheres in the skin.css
e.g.

Code: Select all

.odd {
   background-color:rgb(184,143,98);
   color:#000000;
}
.even {
   background-color:rgb(162,121,78);
   color:#000000;
}

.odd_border {
   background-color:rgb(184,143,98);
   color:#000000;
   border: 1px solid rgb(162,121,78);
}
.even_border {
   background-color:rgb(162,121,78);
   color:#000000;
   border: 1px solid rgb(184,143,98);
}

2. Replace the section in ...Scripts\Auto\PropertiesPanel.vbs
From

Code: Select all

Function odd(i)
  Dim j : j = i / 2
  If Int(j) = j Then
    odd = "even"
  Else
    odd = "odd"
  End If
End Function

to

Code: Select all

Function odd(i)
  Dim j : j = i / 2
  Select Case ini.StringValue("PropertiesPanel", "DataSetSelect")
    Case "Playlists (Static)"
      If Int(j) = j Then
        odd = "even"
      Else
        odd = "odd"
      End If
    Case "Custom Fields"
      If Int(j) = j Then
        odd = "even_border"
      Else
        odd = "odd_border"
      End If
  End Select    
End Function

New Version

' 13-07-08 Version 1.1.6
' Fixed adding new quoted values again
' Added Options Sheet for Custom Field data set display options
' Default skin has odd/even_border and auto hide scroll bar entries (copy/edit them into your Monkey Rock Skin)

Basically it lets you change the display of the custom fields panel. Include/exclude dropdown and or text boxes.

Wow MoDementia this script is great.

I don't know if it was intended for, or I doing something wrong,
but is it possible in Selected Mode to apply the dropdown choice to all selected tracks?
If I select an album in Album node and the select something in the dropdown list, it
seem to apply the change to only 1 track.

Thanks

[MoDementia]

Thanks, glad you like it.

Yes it is only doing the first selected track by design.

It can get a little tricky dealing with more than one track selected (what to display, what not to display, when dropdown is showing/not showing etc)
It would have to do a bit of preprocessing before updating the panel.

I may come back and visit it once it settles down and I have added a few more data set panels.

[Eyal]

Thanks for quick response.
Suggestion: In case more than 1 track is selected, it displays the nb of selected tracks instead of the title
and ask confirmation when hitting OK button.

Out of curiosity, why would you want to exclude the drop down boxes, is that for cosmetic reasons? Or so that you can view the information without the ability to edit them?

[MoDementia]

If you have lots of different values the list maybe unwieldy so you can just display the current value but still update it with the text box

Or just display values in a smaller (faster loading) panel

[Mizery_Made]

I just now checked this out after seeing you added a Custom Fields panel. However two issues I have which turn me off from using your script is that it hits performance hard. The most annoying though is the fact that it doesn't appear that the changes are saved to the tag.
