Display and edit comments and tags in the info panel

Post by hitfq »

Some comments and tags are long and it is very hard to read in a column, especially on small screens like netbook screens. Another advantage of puting comments and tags in the info panel is user can use arrows to view comments for different files.

Are you suggesting another tab in the IP for this, similar to Properties? Because I'm not aware of any other place it would fit...but you do know that via file info tips, you can hover on file name and see the tags and comments for that item and it gives quite a long display there...

Those are useful but if he relied on info-tips he couldn't quickly switch between files and view the tags/comments using the arrow keys as he suggested.

Yes, may be another tab in the IP for this should be added. This could be more convenient than info tips, you can directly edit the comment and tags there.
