Good to know nohitter thank you. I hope this would be seriously taken into consideration.

That's when you'd use the suggested Party Mode so they can't edit your tracks.Speakerzmoon wrote:When I have friends over, I'm always worried when they use my MM because they're not aware of that as well and renamed a couple of my tracks lol.

But the Party Mode puts MM in full screen. What if I/They need to use my computer? I'd have to remove Party Mode? Ok...but why does it have to be that complicated? Can't we just enable/disable the renaming option as Nohitter and I previously mentioned? Or just control it in the hotkeys?
I totally understand that you and surely other people find this useful, but I can assure you that there are people like me that find this disturbing. It's just an additional choice that you would give to users. Where's the harm in that? Especially if this option might cause accidents.

Party mode does not have to be full screen. You can change the settings in the MM options.Speakerzmoon wrote:But the Party Mode puts MM in full screen. What if I/They need to use my computer?

Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
Ok. But I still don't see why it has to be like that.
Anyways, this post is not a for/against the rename option. I was just asking for an additional useful option and that is : Being able to disable/enable the ability to click rename, because some people, like myself, an MM Gold User, find it annoying and would rather use other shortcuts, like the F2 you mentioned, for renaming because I'm having renaming accidents with the click rename option.
Plus, shortcuts like that have to be optional. The software cannot just impose a shortcut that you don't want there.
And I seriously don't see where's the problem with what I'm suggesting.

Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
Nobody is arguing about your request. All that is being suggested that some of it is already possible in the current MediaMonkey.

Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
I'm afraid not. It is not possible to remove the click-rename option. And that's the main point of the post. Sure, Party mode is helpful when friends are over I will take your advice and use it since there is no other way ''for now'' (hopefully). But the problem is I myself misuse this shortcut by mistakingly slow double clicking each time causing me renaming issues.Lowlander wrote:All that is being suggested that some of it is already possible in the current MediaMonkey.

Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
Same request for me. A+

As I understand it, you don't have the problem with the feature itself, but rather you don't have enough time to double-click. So, maybe your mouse double-click speed settings is set too fast for you? In this case you can adjust the double-clicking speed to your taste in your mouse settings in Windows Control Panel .Undertone wrote:But the problem is I myself misuse this shortcut by mistakingly slow double clicking each time causing me renaming issues.
Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
Old as this topic is, I agree that it is the most annoying thing I deal with in MediaMonkey,
and I use MM almost constantly throughout the day.
Too many times I find that I've changed a field due to slow-clicking.
I don't object to the feature, but would like to disable it on my install.

*bump*
It seems every time I select a track, it goes into edit mode on the list.
MediaMonkey is fantastic in pretty much every respect, except this.

A way to disable this would be a good move on the Devs part.

Agreed.A way to disable this would be a good move on the Devs part.
Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
Agreed this makes using Media Monkey frustrating and error-prone. I use other software with the same behavior and there is an option to disable it. I have it disabled.
I would love to see an option to disable this behavior.

Re: ''Click Rename'' Removal?
After all these years !! There are people in this forum that actually agree with me !! Hallelujah ! hahaha
I've had so many complaining topics with no positive returns (or even offensive replies...) over the years that I just felt like I'm annoying the forum. So ever since I just keep my complaints to myself and friends around me, unfortunately.
Just passed by to see how this forum is doing (after 3 years...wow...time flies). Feels great to read people sharing the same thoughts
Keep it up Mediamonkeys ! One day we'll have the Mediamonkey we dream of ... :p
