Title: Field not colored correctly in the track information panel
Post by: DQ on October 15, 2021, 04:13:16 AM: Hi

I have a right sidebar with the track information. In it, I display the name of the artist in blue.
But when the artist field has multiple artists, only the first one is colored blue. the rest is white.
Important to know is this only happens when I use a virtual tag to select the artists name.
The formula for my virtual tag is $If(<Composer>!="",<Composer>,<Artist>).
If I put the artist field or even the formula directly in the panel settings, It works correctly.
So I see https://www.mediafire.com/view/s7qthr107p2x96x/B1-Error.png (https://www.mediafire.com/view/s7qthr107p2x96x/B1-Error.png)
and it should be https://www.mediafire.com/view/0og9rj4nva3fa44/B1-Correct.png/file (https://www.mediafire.com/view/0og9rj4nva3fa44/B1-Correct.png/file).

(I tried to embed the pictures, but was unable to get a correct link. Or at least I didn't see anything in the preview window.)

Using MusicBee 3.4.7805 on Win10

Unfortunately, it didn't solve the problem.

Post by: DQ on October 16, 2021, 06:53:48 PM: OK, I can understand that. I've replaced my virtual tag with the formula behind it and that works so although not ideal I have a working workaround.
