But, unfortunately it seems I can't dock the dock the player controls in the right sidebar(top) -they are on the bottom pane now-.
I tried clicking Configure Layout, but it's not possible to drag the 'player controls' item from bottom panel to right sidebar.
its called the "sidebar player" and can be docked anywhere in one of the side panels. Click the panel layout button by the search box to change the layout configuration

Thank you very much for the reply!


As I saw, "enlarge progress bar height" doesn't apply to the "sidebar player".
Could you, please change that?

And one last suggestion please:
The 'Apply' and 'Save' buttons (of Apply/Save/Close) in Preferences, if possible
to be grayed out while haven't changed any preference yet,
and only become active when you change them.
In other words, as it works in Windows when changing settings  
(e.g. in Power Options|Change plan settings ---> The "Save changes" button)

this should fix the startup error.
Yep, it worked. But... i found another one : ) Same settings file, this error happens when the buttons in the tab bar are grouped into a single "gear" icon, when i click on this icon, this error is thrown

feel free to make requests as others might comment  but i am in no position at the moment to consider them. In a few weeks when i have a beta ready version that has the remaining planned changes done, then i will ask people to re-request as there are too many things already.

This is exciting news, I can hardly wait to try it. :)

You do know you can try it now, don't you?  Not as a full-fledged production tool, but just to shake it and see what bugs fall out of it.  Steven is issuing a new 'not-quite-alpha' version every day or two.  It's an .exe that goes in your MB folder and launched, configured, played with, and tested without any changes to the 2.5 (or earlier) version you might be using.  Personally I've been trying out my various workflows with it and seeing what happens.  Bugs should be reported in this (GUI changes for v3.0) thread.  Where you can also find the latest test version.  Just work backwards from this post until you find Steven's post with the link.

Double-clicked on a playlist tab, selected another playlist from the left pane, (double)clicked on the tab again, and playing with it that functionality for a few times crashed the demo two times in a row. Then, I could not replicate the crash for a third time. :-/ No report either, it just shuts down without warning. Thought I should report this anyway for what it's worth.

I have the Playing Tracks panel at the bottom of the Main Panel.  I find that when I do List > Clear List the entire list clears as expected.  But when I close and then reopen MB one (and only one) of the tracks that was in the Playing Tracks list reappears.  I've also tried placing the NP panel in the left sidebar and the right sidebar and I get the same behavior.  

EDIT:  I think I've narrowed it down to the track that was last played is the track that reappears after close/open.

Subheader and selection problems appear to be almost fixed.  I can still click in the white space and have a subheader selected, which may include parts of more than one album.  GIF: http://i.imgur.com/toO6xl9.gif

The accidental # columns are fixed.  I can't create anymore.


Some new stuff on playlists:

Playlists can't be renamed by clicking twice; you have to right click and choose "rename".

When I create a new playlist, it comes up ready to be renamed, but the name I type in gets applied to a different playlist.  GIF: http://i.imgur.com/MVYPkng.gif

And I got this error when I tried to navigate back to a deleted playlist:

it looks like the playlist panel is being refreshed - would the folder the playlist is created in be in the continuous monitor path?

In the Artwork tab of the tag editor, if you have multiple artwork to chose from, none of the "Picture Type" options save.
Also a change in the preference of 'primary picture' wont save either.
