| Summary | 0015712: "Art View", "Browser View", "Grid View" - why different names for the same view | ||||
| Description | As reported here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=94520 We have three different names for the same view type: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=94520 Screenshot: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMVpnrwvObzK518uvnyAB86WwsWaRC9rms5V8_MnGy9Fuv9LNLxGpIoWgKMhnM3hQ?key=VTh3MV9OeFFsSzhJUWN5Z2t0eE1tZEppbkp6Y2lB Shouldn't we unify them? I guess that at least "Art view" should be unified to "Grid view" ? | ||||

|
|
I was experimenting last night regarding that an I wonder if we can split Main Layout so that needed parts/views are enabled as SUBVIEWS to layout? |
|
|
This is just about wording, e.g. "Art view" => "Grid view" |
|
|
OK, assigned to me -- to incorporate the suggested changes per the above document. |

Most of the changes and suggestions (green text in the online document) are implemented in build 2184. I just don't understand: Re: [Music > Genres] > Default views: Grid, List (new!) a) I added both the 'List' and 'List (by Album)' there. Or is there a reason why 'List (by Album)' shouldn't be included? b) what is the 'Grid' ? Should it be the 'Genres categories' grid or the 'Genres' grid ?? Or should I understand it that the genre categories should be removed? It was originally implemented as 0014214 |

Tested 2188: To answer your comments: Re: [Music > Genres] > Default views: Grid, List (new!) a) I was recommending this for Music > Genres--I didn't spec changes for Music > Genres > GenreName views. I've since updated the document. Note however, that I don't think that a List (by Album) view makes sense for Genres since in most cases, Grouping by Album will conflict with Sorts by Genre since Genres are often track-specific. b) As to whether the 'Grid' should be based on 'Genres categories' grid or the 'Genres' grid (issue 0014214), ideally it would be user-configurable in the View Options. I've updated the spreadsheet with missing items/recommended changes in Red. Here's a summary: c) View name: Genres --> Grid d) View: Genres > List is missing. Note: this implies implementing a list view for 'folders' so it might not be feasible for 5.0. e) Music > Albums > AlbumName: - Simplified list ---> Album Summary OR Browser - Tracklist ---> List f) Music > Artists > ArtistName: - Album Grid --> Artist Summary OR Browser - Tracklist --> List Note: there are many other changes listed e.g. re. missing subviews, missing configuration items in 'Manage views', failed sorting/grouping, etc. but these will be tracked separately. |

Fixed in 2191 |

Tested 2191. The only major remaining issues are: Music > Albums > AlbumName (List): shouldn't have the info-panel by default (but disabling it shouldn't disable it from the Browser view). Music > Artists > ArtistName (list): Should not have the info-panel enabled (but disabling it shouldn't disable it from the Browser view). Music > Artists > ArtistName (list (by album)): Should not have the info-panel enabled (but disabling it shouldn't disable it from the Browser view). The root of this issue is described at 0015584 - can you discuss with Jiri? EDIT: I'm closing this bug since the original issues are resolved. I'll copy the comments above to 0015584. |

Re-opened: Users are confused by the "Playlist grid" sub-view, see details here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=95040 I guess we should rename it to "Sub-playlists" ? Similarly "Folders" should be renamed to "Sub-folders" in the location tree. |
|
|
Re-resolving since I've opened a new bug to track the issue of naming of the Playlist Grid vs Sub-playlist grid at 0015926 (the confusion stems from more than just a language issue). |
|
|
Closing as original issue is fixed and further improvements are done in other bugs and resolved. |
