Hi I've noticed that my layout doesn't allow to drag&drop tracks to a playlist/crate. My idea would be to show a list of all playlists/crates when a song is draged to the tab. And I like the idea to have the library and auto-dj playlist next to each other in auto-dj view, this way you can add tracks to the playlist without the need to switch between library and auto-dj view.
As for the tabs, I don't like to have more then 5. This Number should be possible to show an all screens from 10" to 17" without the need of a scrollbar. Also I don't know if we should have several search fields I assume this would confuse people. best, Max On Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:24:00 +0200 Daniel Schürmann <dasch...@mixxx.org> wrote: > Hello Mixxx, > > thank you Keith and Max for your comments. > > I think Max's mock-up includes very good ideas and is a good starting > point for checking against our requirements. > > Here are my main library-use-cases.
