This is strictly a "post 7.0" release request, of course: Andy, in svn 16949, today checked in a change to Queries.pm that causes big album and track comments to get their own pop-up page in the jive ui.
I'd love to see something similar in the default web skin...perhaps something like the pop-up "bigger album art" that happens when the mouse is hovered over the player-panel artwork...perhaps a pop-up text area containing comments content when the mouse is hovered over some text indicator. I generally stuff my track comments with some basic minimal composer info, a URL to the composer's page at Grove Music and with as extensive a performer's roster as I can stand to document. So, even now, my comments tags are a bit unwieldy in the web ui. Being able to pop up all that data with mouse hover would be down-right sexy. Also, in the future, I'd like to see our allowable metadata tags in flac files to expand beyond just "COMMENT" into areas like "LYRICS" or "LINERNOTES". I've already started tagging some of my new library additions with vorbis comments labeled "LINERNOTES" containing the cd booklet text in html format. Sometimes, this content is quite extensive. I've got some LINERNOTES tags now that are weighing in at more than 75k. Obviously, a scrollable, sizable pop-up window is the right way to display content like that. Anyway, before I file an enhancement request, I thought I would solicit some feed-back on this idea. Anyone have an opinion? -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42898 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
