Setting a "master" image for an album in Coverflow?

Hello all,
Here's one I've been struggling with for some time.
I tend to master all the tracks and images that go into my iTunes myself, and whenever possible I'll try to have as many images from the album art as I can - at least one for each track from the album. The rub is that iTunes seems to randomly select one of these as the "master" image for Coverflow, and I can't tell it to do otherwise. Just now I was working with an album that's 8 tracks long, and I pasted the first image (which is the actual cover) in the box for the first track. The image dutifully appeared in Coverflow. Then, I pasted the second image in the box for track 2, and the Coverflow image was replaced. Pasted the image for track 3, and the Coverflow image stayed on track 2. It stayed on track 2 all the way to the 8th track. I then went back and re-pasted them in different orders, trying different iterations, and it always stubbornly stayed on the image for track2.
As I said, it does this randomly, and sometimes it defaults back to the first image after a while. Often it doesn't, and so I'm stuck with a random image from inside the CD booklet as the "cover" in iTunes.
So the question is simple: is there any way to set a "master" image for an album in iTunes, so that it will appear whenever the album is displayed rather than the image from a particular track?
Also, out of context, is there any way to export just a playlist and its associated information and artwork? Say I've copied a specific playlist's audio from one computer to another and I don't want to go through the tedium of re-entering all the album details and cover art. There seems to be no way to export all that so it can be re-associated with audio files on another system. Am I mistaken? How would I go about doing that?
Thanks much in advance.

If by "default value" you mean you want to automatically infer the value of an attribute (which appear to be what the custom function is doing) then you can just write a rule to do that.
e.g. to infer the value "0" for the attribute "the minimum tax rate", you use the rule:
the minimum tax rate = 0

  • Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event

    Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event - it is set to grey !

    Anyone got any ideas how to get around this terrible downgrade of the software ?
    BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
    Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb  #@!$#@!@#!@#
    Thanks

    That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
    Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
    iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
    If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder.  And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3,  you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos.   It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
    If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
    See this User Tip:
    Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
    I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

  • How to set custom master page for sharepoint application page ?

    Hello,
    I need to apply custom master page for the custom application page I created for login purpose.
    Can anyone please let me know how to apply master page for custom application page ?
    Note : I need to set custom master page for application page at web application level.
    thanks,
    Dipti Chhatrapati

    Hi Dipti,
    You can use the same reference as ASP.NET
    Example
    "<%@ Page Language="C#" masterpagefile="../_catalogs/masterpage/minimal.master" title="teste" inherits="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.WebPartPage, Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" meta:webpartpageexpansion="full"
    meta:progid="SharePoint.WebPartPage.Document" %>"
    You can use SharePoint Designer 2010
    http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=16573 to make the reference from you aspx page to you custom masterpage.
    When you are editing a aspx page you can go to ribbon "Style" and attach the custom Masterpage.

  • HGrid : Set the different images for each row.

    Hi,
    Please provide me the solution.
    My page is having an HGrid where one column is should display the image .
    but for this there few conditions
    I would be getting the name of the image from the database and also the description.
    i need to set the image dynamically and display the approriate description as tootip
    regards
    lakshmi

    Lakshmi,
    This can be easily acieved, you can use item of style "image".As you say that your VO contains the image name and location, so you can add item of style "image", to your hgrid VO and set its url property dynamically.Read "Images in Your Pages" topic in dev guide!

  • Setting a background image for headers?

    I am currently working on a flex app and have come across
    some design changes I would like to make. I would like to take an
    accordion and make each header for each section a different image.
    so Section 1 would be image 'A', section 2 would be image 'B' and
    so on. These images would stay the same for each section no matter
    what event occurs. Can this be done through css, or skinning, or
    maybe a combination of the two. If so, are there any tutorials on
    this?
    Thanks
    -Rich

    If the sections of your accordion are VBox components (or
    some other component with an "icon" property), you just have to set
    those icon properties, and you will get icons on your headers.
    i.e...
    <mx:Accordion>
    <mx:VBox
    label="Nodes"icon="@Embed('assets/image/mail_24.png')">
    </mx:VBox>
    </mx:Accordion>

  • Any applicable\recommended Group Policy settings (Local & Domain) for configuring windows 8.1 "gold master image" for collection

    Happy Friday everybody -
    I'm working on implementing Microsoft RDS 2012\VDI for the folks here at work.  I've read - online - a lot of articles on VDI and RDS 2012 - and have a working model that is working somewhat satisfactorily.  I haven't seen much online about steps
    I could take in Local Group Policy on my Windows 8.1 'gold image' - or for that matter Domain level group policy - that can assist in creating a better, more reliable/robust Windows 2012 VDI environment.
    Anybody out there got any information or opinions or advice on Group Policy settings for VDI environments?
    Thanks again, everyone!

  • Album artwork not displaying for all albums in Coverflow view

    Very interesting problem I'm having. All of my music has album artwork assigned to it and can clearly be seen in the preview pane at the bottom left of the iTunes window. However, not all the albums show up in the new Coverflow feature in iTunes 7. I've been trying to figure out what might be different about these images that would cause them to not show up. Also, the albums that don't show up in Coverflow view don't show up on my iPod nano either; all the other ones are fine though. Any ideas?

    I'm experiencing the same. It is funny, I can definitely not see something the displayed (or not displayed) graphics have in common. Some were fetched from the iTS, some bought from iTS, some fetched from other locations ...
    At first I thought that it might be because of my old but brave little iBook, but if you see the same on an G4, this is probably not the reason.
    My library is on an external hard drive connected via FireWire, and it is quite big (almost 15,000 tracks).

  • Setting background image for repeating frame in .pdf report

    Is it possible to set a background image for a repeating frame, and more specifically for a repeating frame rendered in .pdf?
    I do not see any standard property in the navigator for images of any sort and the documentation touches only on setting background images for graphs, which is not the intent in my case. I -did- add an HTML table property background="myimage.jpg" but the report is ultimately generated in .pdf format and I was not surprised to see that the image was not rendered.
    Does anyone know if setting a background image as described is even possible, and if so, how? A second but less optimum solution would be setting the image as the background for all report pages, again in .pdf.
    Many thanks.

    Hi Raj,
    Yes you can have an image in the background. Thats possible if you are using XML forms as an iview or ivew dev in WebDynpro...

  • How to show one album art image for a compilation album in cover flow view?

    I just finished getting album art for my entire music collection. Now I go to the Cover Flow view or the Album view and individual songs in compilation albums each have their own album art instead of being grouped together under the same album art. For instance I have a "Buddha Bar" Album with various artists. Instead of having one image for the album, each artist has his or her own image (all the same Buddha Bar album art). So a compilation CD with various artists ends up having 15 images instead of one image in the Album art or Cover Flow view which makes it harder to look through my albums. Does anybody know if it is possible to change this?

    iTunes doesn't have the ability to do what you want, i.e. to define multiple separated values in a field and then have the item show up when looking at a selection based on each of those values. "Bob Dylan", "The Band" and "Bob Dylan & The Band" are three distinct values that can't be linked together. Sort values can change where in a list things are displayed but shouldn't be used to attempt to merge different values as results are undefined and unpredictable.
