How do I move the Playing node to the middle panel? [#18019]

[morepencrust]

I did before (long long ago), but this is a good way to renew. I miss this feature too. Actually it is the only feature i still miss from Version 4. For the rest i am convinced .

Hi there !

A small reminder on this feature that I'm waiting for many years now. Maybe the last chromium update make the changes easier to implement ?

Would love to see someone assigned to https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=18019

Agreed - I would really like to see this feature return.

I'm coping right now only because I'm in the fortunate position of having an ultrawide monitor, but it's super clumsy and most people don't have this luxury anyway.

Please bring this feature back!

Not what's requested, but perhaps of some use: https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... k-playing/

Maybe I understand wrong but you can have Playing in middle when selecting it in tree.

Yes you can do that, but it's not helpful for what we're trying to do.

The use-case is for people who are selecting and grouping music based on several criteria (e.g. Artists, Genres, release date, BPM's, etc...) to build a 'now playing' list see the playlist build up while we are doing it. Using the method you describe only allows us to view and edit the existing 'Now playing' list. There's no way to add music to it without moving to a different view (which removes visibility of the details 'Now playing' list in the process).

Placing the 'now playing' list to the side forces a narrow view in both the main area and/or the now playing list to accommodate having them both sit side-by-side, which means several useful columns aren't visible.

Having the music source and 'now playing' list on top of each other (i.e. a vertical layout, as it was in MediaMonkey 4) allows you to not only see all columns in your source list, but also all columns in your 'now playing' list.

I came here to add my "vote" for this. I updated to V5 some time back and was disappointed that this was not available. I went back to V4 because of this partially. I updated to V2024 yesterday hoping that it would now be possible for the same reasons previously noted by others in this thread.
The detail in the bug/feature request showed that the target was for V5.2 to have this implemented. Does V2024 equate to V5.1?
In any case, I will say I am liking V2024 and will stick with it this time.
Thanks for your attention and looking forward to seeing this brought back

I've been checking out MM5 as releases come out to see when I fully want to make the switch from MM4, and it's been pretty stable lately, but this is one of the big things preventing me from fully switching. Would definitely be nice to have this be added at some point.

Agree, this would be a big improvement.
