That helped. Thanks a lot.

You need to include Work in either indexTags or itemTags (see previous posts).

That helped. Thanks a lot.

It works now, Thanks.

My controlpoint shows WorkTitle (as you see: no space in between Work and Title). I use Title.displayFormat={$work^^^$title^} in Tagformat. I have no idea what ^ does.

The ^ characters are used to specify a prefix, suffix and separator for each format item. For details and some examples, see the Tag formatting section of the User guide.

For example, if you want a space before Title, use this format string:

Title.displayFormat={$work^^ ^$title^}

If you want the track shown as Work: Title, use this:

Title.displayFormat={$work^^: ^$title^}

Thanks, I'll try that

For one piece works I use either the Work or the Title tag.
When using Title.default={$work}, Work.default={$title} in TagFormat I get this error message:
Incorrect option name 'default' in property 'tagFormat'

Also: I get an error using this in TagFormat Artist.displayFormat={$artist$orchestra$conductor},

The 'default' option needs to go in the tagValue property, not in tagFormat.

All tags used in displayFormat need to appear in either indexTags or itemTags, as explained in this post and this post.

I put Title.default={$work}, Work.default={$title} in TagValue as you suggested but get the error
Incorrect tag name '$work' in option 'Title.default' in property 'tagValue'


RE: Show composition in heading/control point - simoncn - 30-12-2024 22:27

There is no $ sign when you use the 'default' option. It should be this:

Title.default={Work}, Work.default={Title}
