Displaying "conductor" in artist display - antonmb - 04-10-2016 15:15

Hi Simon,
I currently have my artist display set as follows:
Artist.displayFormat={$artist$composer$soloists$orchestra$conductor^^^; }

Is there a way I can have the word "conductor" with a separating comma after the conductor name, e.g. "Neville Marriner, conductor"?

Thanks as always for the best server.

You can set this as the suffix for $conductor. This means you need a separate format item for $conductor, as follows:
Artist.displayFormat={$artist$composer$soloists$orchestra^^^; $conductor^; ^, conductor^; }

This should do what you want as long as there is only one conductor.

Edit: To handle multiple conductors, you can do this:

Artist.displayFormat={$artist$composer$soloists$orchestra^^^; $conductor^; ^, conductor^, conductor; }

To handle multiple conductors, you can do this:

Artist.displayFormat={$artist$composer$soloists$orchestra^^^; $conductor^; ^, conductor^, conductor; }
