Hi,

I've looked for the answer to this on the forum but no joy, so would appreciate any help!

When playing a playlist, I'm trying to get the right sidebar on the Now Playing tab to display the actual track number that the song occupies in the playlist, but any fields relating to track number seem to just be those related to where the song is on its original album.

I found a post that explains how to create a virtual tag that shows the 'index and title', but this just means that even if the playlist is 500 songs, the song at the top of the sidebar (that's playing) is always track 1.

On the Playlist tab, the track number has its own column ('#'), where the 100th song in the playlist is numbered 100. This is what I want to show on the Now Playing tab if possible!

Hope this all makes sense

Thanks

Bump...

To give more info, the first screenshot here shows the Playlist (with numbered songs)




The second screenshot is the same Playlist on the Now Playing screen. How do I replicate the track numbers please?

You can accomplish this using a virtual tag like:



Then select it through 'Customise Panel…'
