yeah, I know about the tracking ticket. For version 5.1? This isn't about fixing a bug. It is something that ought to have been there from the beginning. Why were 'all fields' not included at the beginning?

strange.

FYI: Tracking as https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=17093

Thanks for feedback!

Seems that 'comment' is still not available when viewing 'playing' or 'selected' tracks. It is there for data in properties, but we aren't allowed to view the comments otherwise?

You can "view" it ... ie. you can add the comment view to displays in the main panel.
But as you say you can include in the Preview Panels ("Selected" and "Playing"") ... which seems weird and disappointing.

I just installed the latest version. Seems that 'comment' is still not available when viewing 'playing' or 'selected' tracks. It is there for data in properties, but we aren't allowed to view the comments otherwise?

i know that is listed as a bug at https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=17093 with target version 5.1.
I originally wrote about this 1.5 years ago.
Becoming clear that version 5.1 can be a long, long, way off.

It is considered a 'tweak'. Shouldn't have been missing to begin with.

How about moving it up in the fix order?

Is the comments field addition moving up the todo list. Seems that if every 'custom field' is available in layout, "Comments" should be available also.

It's planned for a future release. You can see the details at https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=17093

will 'comments' be added to available fields to be displayed in preview?

also, in the same 'advanced' window, at the bottom are up and down arrows. seems like they don't do anything.

The up/down arrows moves selected field up or down. You just need to select a field to make them enabled.

It's not available: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=17093

How can i add 'comments' field to preview pane. I don't see it listed in the choices for preview>layout>advanced.
