Awww, ty - It is appreciated! Just glad to know some people find it useful really
1) "Duplicate this node" functionality. Having built a complex node, it would be useful to be able to duplicate it so as to tweak some parameters for a new list. Currently you have to create a new node and then copy and paste the lines over manually.
Okay, this'll probably make it into version 2.
2) Would it be possible to change the filter inputs from "lines" to "multi-line text areas"? If you then ignored the newline character, it would be possible to input your queries (and nested if's etc) in standard indented format - that all computer programmers inherently use for ease of readability. I intend to develop some complicated queries, and having it all on one line means readability suffers a bit!
Hey, now that's interesting. I use Excel in this way sometimes to get a multi-line display. I will certainly consider it for version 2 aswell.
Found 1 more.....
3) Allow genre in the Maths Filter so I could do this for example:
(if((genre='Dub') ,3 ,(if((genre='Rock'),1 ,2))))*(lastplayedage^0.
* (Rating^2)/ (PlayCounter^0.5)
Aha!
Yep, look in the feature list for the next version, and also mentioned in my previous post. I would so love to implement the MM strings as well as numeric values for the math filter. It's going to be tricky, and I'm a little worried about the speed despite using C.
In any case, your post has certainly spurred me on to attempt this - I want this feature just as much as you
Like I said before, if it was implemented, you'd only need the 'math filter' to formulate any possible playlist and thus the 'query filter' would be redundant, since math and boolean logic can coexist in the same query. (though I may keep the 'query filter' regardless for clarity purposes).
