Description Daniel Secareanu 2005-08-31 07:59:49 UTC
Been using Banshee to listen to music in this beta of SUSE 10.0. I've installed
lame mp3 codec for mp3s, and in the default playlist I added two folders with
around 60 items. I would like to access playlist properties by going to Music ->
Playlist -> Properties, but nothing happens... no window is opened, nothing
appears on the screen. I'd like for example to remove rating, plays, last played
from the playlist header, but cannot...

Is there any code to hook this up to Aaron?

Sorry for the menu being misleading. There are no "Playlist Properties"
actually. This was left over UI from the early days of Sonance when I was
working on Smart Playlists. The properties dialog would embed the smart playlist
editor. We decided to leave Smart Playlists out from the start of Banshee, so I
never continued with this code. There is no point for this dialog for static
playlists, as the main UI exposes everything regarding a playlist (naming,
renaming, number of children, etc.).

I have taken out the Music->Playlists menu, and moved Music->Playlists->New
Playlist to just Music->New Playlist.

As for hiding columns, right click in the playlist/track view area and choose
"Columns." I will add a main menu item for this as well.
