# Mp3tag for Mac v1.7 released

I’ve just released Mp3tag for Mac v1.7 and I want to take the opportunity to outline some of the new features and improvements for you:

### Support for Multiline Fields on Tag Panel

I’ve extended the Tag Panel on the left for entering metadata to support even more configuration options: it's now possible to also add multiline fields (e.g., for adding lyrics or podcast descriptions) in addition to standard text fields and checkbox fields.

### Playlist and Export Filename Configuration

The name for playlists and export files can now be configured via settings using a format string (i.e., a template pattern that is filled with actual artist and album metadata once the playlist or export file is created).

### Custom Copy Format

The format that is used when copying a textual representation via ⌘C to the clipboard can now be configured via settings.

### A few more things

I’ve also extended the Discogs Tag Source to import even more composers (Discogs has various ways of allowing the composer information to be denoted) and added a history drop-down to allow for reusing previously used format strings when exporting tag information. You can inspect the complete list of changes via the Mp3tag for Mac [changelog](https://mp3tag.app/changelog). If something is unclear or sparks your interest, please don’t hesitate to ask.

It's a free update! You can update the Mac App Store version via the _Update_ tab in the App Store app and the standalone version from within the app via _File → Check for Updates_.

And if you’re not yet using Mp3tag for Mac, you can always get the [7-day trial version](https://mp3tag.app/get) — only days you’re using the app are counted.

**Thank you for reading, your interest, and your support.**

Enjoy and take care  
— Florian
