You already can select which columns display, but, unfortunately, that's the only part I can point you to. If you go to Edit > Preferences, on the General tab, there is a section labeled 'Visible Columns,' where you should be able to pick which ones show up. As to rearranging them and having it stick, I think there was another post to the mailing list recently asking for that and Johnathan said it was a matter of dealing with the slightly complicated widget gtk uses for columned lists. Probably fixable, but not a high priority right now. If you wanted to look into it, I'd guess that widgets/rb-library-browser.c might be the file to look at. > My second suggestion is with the sorting.

There's a solution to this one. If you edit the tags for your files so that the artist sort field reads "Shins, The" or "Dillards, The," rhythmbox will sort them based on those fields. This sort of thing isn't done automatically because it would be complicated to do for all of the languages rhythmbox is translated to! > > _______________________________________________ > rhythmbox-devel mailing list > rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel Matt _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
