HiddenConfigKeys

From Exaile

In Exaile, there are some features that are implemented but that we don't want know whether or not they should be used, or whether they are bug-free or not. These are available via hidden configuration keys.

If you want to use them, you will have to enable them by setting up the appropriate setting keys. You will first have to open your settings file, usually located at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/exaile/settings.ini ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaulting to $HOME/.config if not set.)

If you notice a bug when using one of these hidden settings, please let the developers know. If you use those hidden settings and have a bug related to one of the fields they apply to, please disable the hidden settings and check if the bug still happens before reporting it.

Miscellaneous (section [miscellaneous])

Change the numbers of stars in the rating widgets (to 6 in this case):
