Hi,

After that I loaded all my addons and realized that the addons: SQL, Marked Play and Short Links are not compatible with the build 2024.0.0.3005, which of course I did not load.[/quote]
There is a compatibility version check issue when installing addons on 2024 and should be fixed ASAP.

Hi Barry,

Many thanks for your help. I forgot to mention what I added in the ticket.

I completely reinstalled build 2024.0.0.3005 (=new system) from scratch and copied from the "old system" MM5.DB to ...\Portable\( =new system). Then I created a new MyList, which worked as expected. After that I loaded all my addons and realized that the addons: SQL, Marked Play and Short Links are not compatible with the build 2024.0.0.3005, which of course I did not load.

Maybe this is the reason why there were errors in the old version.

Hi Carsten,

to test what you reported I tried putting the Custom View facility under some stress, to see if I could replicate what you see.
[list][*]I created a Custom View; based on List View, and excluding the Genre tag
[*]Then I modified that view outside of the Manage View facility, ie. I used "choose Columns/Sort" while the view was active, and added back the Genre column
[*] At that point I looked at the json file; it was out of step, ie. the genre column was displayed on screen, and the json file still showed the column as being "visible: false" in the Custom View definition
[*] I toggled to another View type, and then back into it my Custom View ... ie. both in the same tab
[*] the issue persisted; ie json file out of step with what MM was displaying for that view[/list]

I don't know if this helps. It does seem that there is an avenue for the json file to get out of step.

Thanks for the replies!

The problem is still persistent.
Therefore I have created a new ticket: #6993:

In the persistent.json file I see the entry MyList:

Don't know if this helps, but when did you look at the json file?
I think that MM5 persists any changes when you close MM5.
So if you are viewing the json file, while you are running MM5 and making changes Custom View changes, you may be looking at stale values.

Please provide more specifics like node (maybe [url=https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=97733]screenshot[/url] of whole window) and are you sure the custom view is actually in use?

"custom_views": {
        "presets": [
            {
                "viewID": "tracklist",
                "views": [
                    {
                        "id": "f43c5853-8ecd-4527-b156-e59737cbda27",
                        "title": "MyList",
                        "viewMode": "tracklist",
                        "subViews": [
                            "statusBar"
                        ],
                        "grouping": "album;albumArtist",
                        "cols": [
..
                            {
                                "width": 7.6923076923076925,
                                "visible": false,
                                "columnType": "genre"
                            },

..

I'm using the latest 2004 build 3005

That's what I assumed.
In the persistent.json file I see the entry MyList:[code]
"custom_views": {
"presets": [
{
"viewID": "tracklist",
"views": [
{
"id": "f43c5853-8ecd-4527-b156-e59737cbda27",
"title": "MyList",
"viewMode": "tracklist",
"subViews": [
"statusBar"
],
"grouping": "album;albumArtist",
"cols": [
..
{
"width": 7.6923076923076925,
"visible": false,
"columnType": "genre"
},

..
[/code]
and the visible value is false but in in the main panel list the column Genre is still there. I have no idea what's wrong?

I'm testing with the [url=https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=86639&sd=d]latest MediaMonkey beta[/url] and Genre disappears when switching to the custom View.

When I try to customize my list view, I run into a problem.

I am trying to create a new list. I select[i] Manage Views[/i] from a given list view via [i]<Add New>[/i] with the name MyList. From the displayed column elements I remove e.g. [i]Genre[/i] and finish this selection with [i]ok[/i]. Now I have found MyList in the list view, but the Genre column is still present in this MyList.

What am I doing wrong?

Carsten
