PM123's Playlist Manager

Playlist Manager is provided for browsing and managing playlists. In fact it is nothing else but a tree view of some default playlist file. The Playlist Manager window will remember the objects added to it next time you open it.

If you open any other playlist in the tree view you have to save the changes on your own. If the playlist is modified '(*)' will show up in the window title. However, you won't see whether nested playlists are modified.

See Playlist icons for information on icons and colors.

Window features

Icons

The icons show the type and the status of playlist item.

Double-click

If the clicked item is a song: navigate to the song if this is possible within the currently loaded playlist.
If the item is a playlist: open the nested playlist in the detailed playlist editor.

Direct manipulation

You can edit the alias name.
Note that changing the the name does not change any file name. It only changes the display string of the item in this playlist.

Drag and Drop

You can use Drag and Drop to rearrange the items in the playlists, move or copy items between different playlist or playlist manager windows or drop file or URL objects from other applications. In the latter case only shadows are allowed since playlists only contain references to the original objects. You cannot drop PM123 objects on other applications.

Context menu
