I thought I'd noticed in the past that fields I used often seemed to move to the top of the list (& re-sorted whoever I restarted the app) but that seems to have stopped happening for some reason.

Maybe an update?

Maybe I imagined it?

In any case, I only ever use three or four of the available items & I wonder if it's possible to permanently move them to the top of the list?

The multi field editor.

That window there. That list.

(Sorry, it's in the title, but is that not the correct name for it?)

Typing to select will make life easier.

Enabling auto sort doesn't seem to solve my problem because I almost always want to edit one particular column at a time & when I uncheck one item, it moves back down the list again. So, if I'm working through a box-set one disc at a time & I'm editing "title", that's the one item that's selected in the Multi Field Editor list. If I then want to edit "album", I have to uncheck "title" & it disappears back down the list again.

Unless I'm doing something wrong?

In the past, most commonly used items seemed to stay at the top, like the app knew I'd be using it again soon. That was really handy (& really clever, I thought, but maybe it was just a glitch?)

I mostly just use Title, Album & Composer and I could do with being able to sort the list & just have those right at the very top, but typing to access them will certainly be easier.

Thanks! 🙂

Oh, well that absolutely fine!

Firstly, I almost never have to relaunch the app. Only when there's an update or my machine needs a restart.

Secondly, that's probably what I've done in the past by accidentally clicking about & made them sort at the top. That would also explain why they didn't seem to be there after I'd relaunched the app.

Those function buttons are also a bit of a secret weapon, as it turns out. And there's me thinking they were just coloured dots!
