Custom Viewer and Browser information
One of the things that bugs me no end about C1Pro's display is that there is no way to customise the information displayed in the Viewer and Browser. At the risk of beating a long-dead-and-buried horse, Aperture did this brilliantly, and if we could have only that level of capability, I would be happy.
As it is, we have nothing; only what C1Pro think is important.
What I want is the ability to specify what's most important to me: I want to have the full list of displayable information, and be able to order it by priority, so that when bits need to be left off, the least important (to *me*) bits are left off, and the most important (to *me*) bits are left in place. Things like aperture, focal length, and exposure time are critical. I really couldn't care less about the name of the image, or how many stars I gave it, most of the time. Especially in Viewer; in Browser, I might want to have the stars be visible even if they're not in the Viewer.
I am filing an actual feature request as a separate item, but it would be brilliant if other people were to pile onto this. Cheers.

Here's a screen shot of the situation I find myself in so very often. A number of shots, and no way of distinguishing them by technical data, other than to go into the Info pane and view each one individually, which is next to useless. I want to be able to sort and delete items quickly, and I can't do that with the information displayed here. I mean, I *really* do not care what the image is called, and the ISO setting is not the most important piece of information to me.

I agree, this would be very useful.
A related option, requested several times, is variant names. Currently, there's no way of distinguishing variants in the browser, you have to use the metadata tool.

Yes, that would be great.
I personally would like to have the image shooting date/time shown below the Viewer and image icons in the Browser.
Like myself, I'm sure there would be people who want the filename, stars and colour rating, so ideally it should be customisable, allowing the user to choose any metadata fields, with a second or even third line if required.1 -
This would indeed be great.
Mike, will you move this request to the new "Improve C1" section?

Hi Rolf. How do I do that? Just create a new post there? Or is there a way to move the thread that I'm not seeing?

I believe you have to create a new post.

I've already filed a support request for this feature, and I wonder whether it's actually acceptable (to the moderators) to repost this for what would then amount to the third time.

You are probably right, Mike. Reposting may seem a bit too much then. Let's hope they plan on implementing it.

Well, if another five or six months go by and nothing happens, I may just make a new post over there and let them scold me!

5 months later it has dawned on me that some may be puzzled why some of us want the date & time shown when most cameras generate filenames with the date & time, but I name the files with sequential numbering in the order I want to present them which is not necessarily in chronological order. No doubt there will be others who name their files in some other way that does not include date/time

Maybe post in the "Improve C1" section right away after all, see https://support.captureone.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/9711766357661/comments/9833851067165
