does anybody use a text editing software environment to do the scripting for el playlist and or panel stack splitter?

i think it would be nice to have pallets that you could define functions to that could be pasted into an editable text window.  i.e. i could create buttons that would paste the $if, $get, $drawrect, etc... functions into a text window.  it would also be nice to be able to set default colors to these buttons, or at least be able to set the colors.

much of my time is spent determining where i've made syntax errors, and i think that a copy/paste setup would help reduce those errors, and a color coded setup would help for finding syntax errors.

i feel this type of software probably already exists,  but i'm not experienced with script editing enough to know.  dreamweaver maybe? or would that be overkill?

here's a little diagram in case my description was terrible:

@ssenna:

I've a really simple request: Ability to set number of rows for normal items  , you know like the row number of the group headers. It'd be perfect to i.e display two rows for singles and one row for album tracks.

Cheers!

(Possible) bug:
Using foo_uie_quicksearch in "Inline playlist search" mode, when I enter some query and hit Enter twice, the first match (highlighted track in ELPlaylist) is supposed to play, but it doesn't.
I notice, however, if I open the playlist's Settings dialog and then close it immediately, the problem disappears, but will happen again if I restart foobar.
This does not happen with NGPlaylist.

well, new verison(v0.6.5.3.3) may fix the bug.
(I've not tested.)

Thanx Ssenna, the bug on playlist bottom seems fixed in this new build !!!!! (in previous version, the selection on the last line, even if visible entirely was blocked for unknown reason, now it's all good )

i would be awsome if it was possible to use PPS global vars in el_playlist too!

thanks for this great component!

Is there a way to change the scrollspeed in ELP? Or make the scroll increments larger? I know this kind of topic has been brought up before... I turned off pseudo transparency, which makes it a little faster, I even set my logitech mouse software to scroll as fast as possible in foobar (which makes everything else but ELP scroll way too fast). Even with these changes, it still scrolls too slowly. Any ideas?

It's been a long time since I tried changing my foobar layout. Therefore, I've never really worked with the ElPlaylist commands. I know a bit of the coding, because the main elements are the same as in the SCPL. But now I've run into a problem.

I want to have some parts of the title in a different color and/or font. But with the $drawtext command, you need to specify the horizontal and vertical position of the text, as well as the color. And I never know at what horizontal position I need to continue with a different font and text color.

So, how can I for instance make the following appear:
In the Morning (Hot Chip remix)

I hope I explained myself well enough. It's a bit tricky to describe, I guess.

Thanks in advance!

You need to "split up" the %title%-Tag in the "real Title" ... e.g. "In the Morning" and the "addition" ... e.g (hot Chip remix)

After That you determine the Width of the "real Title" with ($gettextwidth(string))

Now you can display this in the way (and color) you want with two $drawtext/(ex)(x,y,w,h,color,blah), and add the textwidth from the "real Title" for the x-Position of "the addition".

Just a few simple questions:

I enabled hover for making an item and group popup and set the delay to 0ms.
Then I filled in %title% (just for testing) in popup (track) field.
Now my problem is that I can't see any popups. Can somebody please tell me what I forgot.

I also got a question regarding fonts.
Is it possible to do something like %title% - %artist% with title in a bigger font and a different colour than the artist?

I can't seem to figure this out because the drawtext function only let's me enter the size en colour of one piece of text. I want different sizes and colours on the same line without using tabs.

I used to use panels ui/single column playlist which made this a bit easier with the alignabs function. Is there something simular in el playlist/ panel stack splitter?

Thanks in advance

This may have been asked: is there a way to get the art if the files are archived? Ofc the art is in the archive too.

[Not My Release] ELPlaylist

there's an "archive" option for $imageabs(), and you will need archive reader component.

[Not My Release] ELPlaylist

and simply using the archive option in $imageabs(), ie:  $imageabs (x,y,w,h,% path%, archive), should make it work?

[Not My Release] ELPlaylist

I know nothing about the archive reader
but the ssenna gives an example path like this in the readme

I assigned the keyboard shortcut ctrl-d to write tags with the foo_discogs component.
It only works when I set it as a global hotkey. Could this please be fixed or am I doing something wrong?

1) you need to check "enable hover" and select Popup in the drop down list for group and item.  If you've done that already, try 10 ms delay instead of 0.

2) as far as I know, there's no way to do that.  what I do is

$font(,10,)
$drawtextex('blahblah',...)
$puts(x,$add(5,$gettextwidth('blahblah'))
$font(,12,)
$drawtextex('blahblah2',$get(x),...)

I'm not the best at coding, and haven't had a chance to look at how ELP is setup, so I was wondering if someone could help me figure out something that I assume is pretty simple. How do I group multiple disc albums under one header? So it looks something like:

Artist
Album Title
  Disc 1
      1. Track 1
      2. Track 2
      3. Track 3
      4. Track 4
      5. Track 5
  Disc 2
      1. Track 1
      2. Track 2
      3. Track 3
      4. Track 4
      5. Track 5

Here's what my setup looks like now, hopefully what I am trying to achieve makes sense...

I think you can try this in Group Format:

%artist%|||%album%|||%discnumber%

Thanks, that's on the right track... here's what my config looks like now:



I don't want single disc albums grouped this way (look at The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory), and I want the secondary group headers on multiple disc albums to only be text that reads "Disc #"... I'm assuming I have to do that within the Group Header script.
