Summary | 0020929: Text in tabs displays Attributes instead of Collection Name for Classifications | ||||
Description | Expand Entire Library and select Genres node -> the tab displays the icon for genre, but it has "Entire Library" text instead. The third level is fine, for example: Entire Library / Classification / Tempo | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
Fixed in build | |||||

The way that it works for Genres node is intentional. i.e. MM tabs are supposed to display the lowest level AttributeName rather than the associated Attribute since displaying just the attribute isn't as useful for identifying what's contained within the tab. e.g. if a user uses one tab for Music (in Artists) and another for Podcasts (in Albums), it's more useful to see Music and Podcasts in the tabs. But as Zvesdan points out, this approach isn't taken for the Classification subnodes and it should. |
|
Such approach is not consistent, since the tabs display the lowest node level in most places. For example, if you select any genre from the Genres node, the tab will display that genre, not the name of its parent collection. What if I have one tab with Music / Artists and second tab with Music / Albums? It is not more useful having two tabs displaying "Music". Also, it is not only Classification where its sub-nodes are displayed in tabs. The sub-nodes of Files to Edit are also displayed in tabs, e.g. Multiple Artist Albums. |

To be re-evaluated post 5.1. |
