GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 330096
rhythmbox columns are not in "right" order

This bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/30554 "In the library the colums are not in right order (Track-Title-Genre(!!!)-Artist-Album-Time, it would be nicer in this order Track-Title-Artist-Album-Genre-Time) In addition a tool to set the position would be nice..."
Column being user-orderable is bug 119406. I believe the reason for being Genre-Artist-Album is that there is a heirarchy, and that order goes from most general to most specific (the same reason the browsers are in that order). That said, I think Genre if the least "useful" of those three, and Artist-Album-Genre probably makes sense.

Created attachment 207710 [details] [review] patch
My patch changes the order to Title->Artist->Album->Genre
(In reply to comment #1) > I believe the reason for being Genre-Artist-Album is that there is a heirarchy, > and that order goes from most general to most specific Yes, except that the track is the first column, so the order should be reversed: Title->Album->Artist->Genre.
