Topic: Move/Rearrange Tag view order?

Is there a way I can rearrange the order the tags are displayed in picard? Reason I want to know is when I go to check to make sure the song is matched correctly I either have to have half my screen dedicated to the program or scroll all the way down to the bottom to see the "Version" tag so I can make sure the song was paired properly and I dont end up with some other random artist tagged.

Re: Move/Rearrange Tag view order?

There isn't any way to do that from the GUI, but you can write a plugin for it:

PLUGIN_NAME = "Custom tag order"
PLUGIN_VERSION = "0.1"
PLUGIN_API_VERSIONS = ["1.1.0"]

from picard.ui.metadatabox import COMMON_TAGS

COMMON_TAGS.append("some_tag_here")

Save this as a file ending in ".py" and install it like you would any other plugin. Note that this only works in 1.1, and "some_tag_here" will always be visible even if there's no value for it.
