How to show "Commentary" in Layout? [#17093]

Hello!

Is it possible to display a song's or album's commentary that's saved in the properties, in MM5, like it was possible in MM4 with this lyrics and comment viewer addon? I know there's this wikipedia fill in, but it would be brilliant, if there's a chance to display a song's or album's history or review, that's not noted in wikipedia. Like for great Indie music, not only for Pop chart hits.

Preview window can be modified, right click on it and select Layout from the Context Menu. Use Advanced to choose which tags are displayed in the Preview window. This setting works per Type.

So no.

However Comment can be displayed in the Filelisting itself when using a View like Details.

I am not sure exactly which artist & album comment attributes that you are asking about. Lowlander's answer probably has the query covered, but just in case you were speaking of something else, see this enhancement request which has been deferred to version 5.01, and this thread which discusses the issue.
