Drag an drop songs

Open danmarker7 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Is there a way to add songs via drag and drop (on a Mac)? When I try currently the entire app reloads as a blank screen with one of the songs loaded in a compact player as what would happen if I dragged the song into my internet browser.

The only way I've been able to add songs is by adding an entire folder. The problem is folders have other songs I don't want to add and the songs I want to add are across multiple folders.

Also if I do add a folder I'm unable to re-arrange the track order.

To select tracks you must choose the folder they are in - drag-and-drop is something on the list of improvements, but will require a major overhaul of the underlying code.

You should be able to re-order by clicking edit symbol next to the track, and choosing which position it's in.

Thanks for the reply! Looking forward to any updates.

I was able to rearrange songs using the method you suggested. Thanks. I just wish there was a better way. If I change a track to #1 there are now 2 track #1s and in the end I have to change all the track numbers.

In an unrelated question after finishing my first MD I noticed all the tracks recorded to the MD were copied without there track names and loaded as untitled. Did I do something wrong?
