How to insert a playlist field?

Last Updated 10 years ago

First, open or start a new design file. Click on the File menu and select Open to browse for an existing file to open and use or File, New to start a new design.
Once you have the design on the screen, make any necessary changes like selecting a background or adding text boxes to the label.
To apply a playlist from the Playlist Manager, click on the Playlists icon in the left hand side and select Playlist Manager. In this menu, select the playlist that you want to use and click on the Apply button.
Next, click on the Playlists icon and select Insert Playlist Fields. You might want to select the playlist field called, ‘Track:Artist’ and ‘Track:Title’ for the track information with the song title and artist. These fields are setup the same way that you can view in the Playlist Manager. For example, on the General tab, you will find the fields: Title, Artist, No. of Tracks, Playtime… (this is for the General CD Information). On the Tracks tab is where you can find the fields that correspond to the song title, artist,... Once you have inserted a field, you will get a text box that looks like {Track:Artist} or {Track:Title}.
To display the data, click on the Playlists icon and select Display Playlist Data.

Now the playlist should appear on the label design.
