Whilst in Inspection Mode, while working in the Consistency field, under "Same Artist, Different Genre," I noticed that when giving the option to "Choose another genre for selected songs," the box that opens up has a keystroke space at the beginning, which could really throw off the genre.</p>
<p>For example, if I didn't delete the space, it would be " Rock" instead of "Rock"</p>
<p>Just thought you would want to know.</p>

<p>the list shown should be based on the genres in your library. Do you perhaps have a genre named <code>Rock</code>, starting with a space?</p>

When I start to type into the blank box it produces, there is already one space in the box. When I click to start typing, it starts on the second space.</p>
<p>I will double-check my genre list when I get home. I don't have any doubt that some of my 800+ genres are incorrect.</p>
<p>And that is why I have your wonderful program.</p>

<p>It shouldn't produce a blank box. Most likely you have some song marked with a genre that is just a space. I'll add some code that removes genres with leading or trailing spaces for that box—but the real issue is in your genre labels, I think.</p>
<p>You might want to try the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Select <em>Music</em> as your current list.</li>
<li>Click on the <em>Genre</em> table header to sort by genre - make sure the little arrow points upwards (ascending sort order).</li>
<li>Now you should see songs sorted by genre, starting with genre names that start with a space character.</li>
<li>Slow-click on one of those <em>space</em>-genre names to start editing and remove the leading space characters.</li>
<li>beaTunes will ask you, whether you'd like to change the genre name for other songs as well, if you have multiple entries for the same, wrong genre name.</li>
</ul>
<p>Cheers,</p>

<p>I found the offending tracks. Thank you for the pointers, and I apologize for being so stubborn about it.</p>

<p>No problem. I'm glad it's resolved!</p>
