Hoster 5.x Question ...
I installed Hoster 5.x on Sunday. I have not had a problem with it yet running mock shows (don't have a show until Thursday) and so far I like most of the changes.
However, I do have a question: Why did they remove the "Search" button from the "Search Songs Database" screen? After typing in the song/artist name, I now have to remember to press "Enter" <ENTER>to get it to search. I also learned that I can initiate a search by moving my mouse pointer away from this screen and out into the singers screen and left click to get it to search! It really doesn't make any sense (in my feebled mind) to have removed it. There's still plenty of room on this screen for the button!!! Did I miss something somewhere? |

During the development for 5.00 there was a space problem, so the button was removed, since you can use the Enter. |

Dale,
Apparently I'm not normal... I always use the mouse "click" and have been doing it that way over a year. Guess I don't have any choice now, but I still don't see why the button was removed! There appears to be enough room there to include it... I don't need that manila envelope icon and just don't understand why it was put there. I keep the Singers Database open throughout the show and don't need a second way to get there... IMHO it just doesn't make sense! |

Lot of people do like that little manilla envelope.
I never really used the search button, but do wish that the field would clear out automatically after a search. |

The folder was added so you would not need to have both Search and the Singers Database open. The only reason the other button was left was so you would have the editting capability. You may not like it but many do. |

You can narrow the header column for disc ID if you don't think that is really necessary so as to widen the song list column but keep the dialog narrow.:) |

I, too miss the "search" button. I'd vote for having it back.

The possible empty space above the "Skip" checkbox is used when you have a second audio card; the Preview Play controls appear there. So, we have 3 ways to trigger the search now, instead of the one earlier. |
