convert track number : 01 ---> 1

[monkey]

is it possible to modify the format of the track numbers ?
01 ---> 1
02 ---> 2
...
10 ---> 10

Tools > Search and Replace > Enable the regex option
Search in field <track#> for 0(\d+) and replace with $1

That tool has preview support, but in case you are more comfortable with viewing the results in a virtual tag first:
$RxReplace(<track#>,"0(\d+)","$1")

The Advanced Tagging and Report Tools handles this quite easily plus adds many other "advanced" search and replace functions.

If you're just looking to change the way they're displayed and not the tags themselves...Edit->Edit Preferences->Tags(2)...tag handling/fields...configure fields...formatting/disc-track format.

thanks for all replies
i managed to use the "basic tools" and the virtual tag
i managed to use the "Advanced Tagging and Report Tools"

i have a pb to use the "disc-track" format !
"disc-track" doesn't seem to be available in the Music tab ? but only in the playlist panel ? it could have been useful to have it in the Music tab...
would it be possible to create a virtual field "disc-track" in the Music tab ?

Disc-Track certainly exists. Which view are you using?

in this tab

You can also do this for selected tracks using: Tools > Tagging Tools > Renumber Tracks and checking "pad numbers to a maximum of 1..." , no plugin required.

it runs too !
i just wonder if it would be possible to do this without modifying tags but perhaps not
because i'm trying to understand virtual tags
