Feature request - Export Playlist Text, Sort Playlists

I am an Irish fiddler.  Anytune is my preferred method to learn tunes. 

I've been working on re-organizing my tunes so I can keep up with what I've been learning and not lose track of what I have learned. I'd like to suggest a couple of tools that would make this job easier.

1) an exportable tune list. It would be handy to have a paper list, or even a digital list I could share. I would use them to help keep my Anytune lists clean, share with my musical buddies, and to update a session list that I keep on Airtable. You could brand these exports to help advertise Anytune. 

2) It would also be very handy to be able to sort by Anytune playlist. I've got lists for what I'm learning, what I'm working up to speed, what is session ready, and what I need to review. An option to sort playlists - with heading for each would be very useful. In fact, I would probably keep my tunes sorted that way if it were an option: first by playlist and then by most recently played. Very handy!

Thanks for listening,

 

Andrea

  Thanks for the suggestions Andrea.   

  We have had the request to provide the songs in a Playlist as text. it is on the list of future features.  Please add and specific format you would like. 

  For sorting, you are looking for a way to see and play all the songs in several Playlists with headings and sort within the playlists by another key like most recently played: 

  List 1
    Song 1
    Song 2
  List 2
    Song 4 
    Song 3 

  Song 4 was played last then Song 1. You can currently sort all the songs several playlists by using the automatically created playlist for all songs in a folder, but no way for two tiered sorting.   This is an interesting idea.

  Yes! That precisely what I had in mind, a tiered sorting option. :) That way I could easily see what I needed to work on now and what I need to have in mind for later, etc. 

  I could see using two list exports- one to a csv that I could load into a spread sheet, and one in a pdf that I could send off to someone. A simple txt file could work too. If it had dates and playlists and other metadata form Anytune that could be useful. I personally would most likely only use dates and playlists. 

  I work in Anytune almost everyday, fyi, though I might not be your most sophisticated user.  I have 195 tunes, 1178 marks, for a duration of 6:37:26. Earliest tune added 4/4/2018.

  Thank you Andrea!    I am glad Anytune is helping.  We are in the middle of some big projects to make new features easier. Your requests will not likely be implemented soon, but when the changes are in place we will be able to move much faster.
