Version: 2.0 beta1 (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources I found it unintuitive to add songs to playlists and to move them from playlist to playlist. Perhaps adding a few menu entries such as > Add to playlist and > Move to playlist - >>playlist1 >>playlist2 >>playlist3 or > Copy to playlist - >>playlist1 >>playlist2 >>playlist3
I like to support this as wel. I like to advise the following: In the context menu of songs in collection, album, artist and genre view: Add to current playlist > Add to saved playlist > Playlist1 > Playlist2 > Playlist3 > etc... Cheers, Jeroen
I forget to add that there is no current playlist, maybe a default playlist can be assigned.
This bug is related to bug 63260 .
Yeah, I've thought of this too, but the problem is that many people have hundreds of albums and a playlist for each album. There's simply not a nice way to put 300 items into a popup menu. However hopefully the dragging will get more intuitive since I intend to add some visual feedback to the list where a drop would potentially happen.
Btw, what *is* the proper way of adding a new song to a play list. In old version, I could do File->Open, select a song, and click open, and it would prompt me to add it to the playlist. Since 3.5 this no longer works. Clicking open just does nothing. After stumbling accross this bug report, I tried dragging the song from the file list of that File->Open dialog to a playlist (right hand side pane), and lo and behold it did work! However, I agree with the other people here that this is way unintuitive. If drag-and-drop is how it should be done, the Open button should not be displayed, IMHO. Maybe even displaying a small label "drag the songs from this listing to your playlist" or sth similar would help lots of people find out how its done. Or is there an entirely different way how it should be done? If so, it doesn't seem to be easy to find (unintuitive again...) ;-)
Why in the world is this bug so old and not resolved? JuK-3.0 running on KDE-4.0.0
