Topic: Reload tags on a single track
Hi there,
Is there a way to reload tags just for one track?

So far, I know how to do this on a folder from the explorer (batch / reload tags) but I didn't find a way to have it just for one track (except opening the tag editor and updating each tag, but this is not straightforward). Would it make sense to add this option, if actually missing?
For some reason, I happened to have tracks with a trailing (1) in the title, due to their filenames, but correctly tagged – so reload tag was the solution to "clean" them.

It's not possible to reload the tags of ONE track without opening Tag Editor.

However, you can select two tracks on the browser, right click on one of them and then use Batch->Reload Tags
 
Ok, thanks for the workaround.
 
I get that workaround is the only way to reload tags, but why can't we reload a tag for just 1 track? Would seem like not a difficult change/improvement.
 
Well, my own workaround is probably a little faster than the one proposed, and it may be useful if more than 1 track is finally affected, however, an additional line "reload tags" on the track-contextual menu could be an quick improvement.

Alternatively, "Analyze for BPM etc" could include tag reloading. This would avoid another line in the contextual menu.
