Summary0022411: Columns settings in Options dialog box should be more intuitive
DescriptionColumns settings on the Fields/Columns page of the Options dialog box are not intuitive and should have a better explanation, e.g. in tooltip.

What do you mean by "Define columns for"? If it is about view settings, it should be in Configure View dialog box, not in the Options.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

I don't understand your proposal. It is ok for Column settings dialog box that you get from the context menu of List / List (by Album) view header. But, that dialog is dependent on the current node and current view. How it could be used in the Options dialog that has global options? This is the same problem that I mentioned about Manage views dialog in 0022428.

This issue is about the Column settings controls in the Options dialog box.

I misunderstood your original feedback. We could make the following tweaks to make it more clear:
Column settings --> Field/Column scope
Define column settings --> Apply field/column settings in a View to:
Each Node in each Collection --> Individual nodes in each Collection
Each Collection --> Individual Collections

Ok, but what about issue 0022516? What "The entire Library" means? Does it include Folders node, or Playlists node, or any other nodes that don't belong to any Collection?
