I love the new update!

<Removed Image>

  • Is it possible to set an "A" (transparency) value for the background colors?  If not, no worries
  • I noticed that after hitting "Apply", the selection jumps to the first item in the list in the left panel.
  • Any chance of getting vertical trackbars (volume bar, in particular)?


Thanks for your work, it's amazing!


I liked your setup so much I changed it to a more compact version to fit my small taskbar ;D

Hey, awesome plugin you made, man.
I have a problem, though.
It throws me an Operation not Supported exception when I try to open the deskband settings
Here's the exception text, in case you need it
http://pastebin.com/bWF64y42
I'm using W8.1

I works like a charm otherwise! Thanks!

Sure, here: http://pastebin.com/XU5Niv3C

Thanks!  May I ask you how do I 'put' those settings directly? I have not seen any 'import settings' feature..


I tried to change DuckDuckGo as search engine over Google (right click - search in internet) but I am missing something, since it pops me up the main page of DuckDuckGo instead than the page with the results of the search.
The URL I am currently using in the 'General' tab of settings is the following:
Code: [Select]
 http://duckduckgo.com/?q=search&kp=-1&kl=us-en

What am I mistaking?
Thanks
L.

I've been working around with this plugin and really love it. The only thing is I can't get the ratings to display.    This is what I have:
Code: [Select]
$replace($pad($repeat(★,%rating%), 5,.),., · )

Replacing %rating% with a number gives me the result I'm looking for, but it doesn't seem the pick up the rating tag. Works fine when I use %rating mm%, which is only listed in some of my tracks.
I'm using Windows 7 x64.
Thanks for your great work already.

HA! I discovered that using the DUI the rating also wasn't displayed which lead me on a new track resulting in the following code:
Code: [Select]
$replace($pad($repeat($char(9733),$meta(rating)), 5,.),., · )

Bye now

Hey, I'm wondering if this already exists or if it is a possible feature to add somehow? It would be cool to be able to get a tool tip of the artist and song title when you mouse over the controls. I attached a photo of my profile and the config file if anyone wants to use it.

right click the task bar to unlock. then drag/drop to re-arrange. you can then lock the task bar again.

Hello !

First of all, thank's for this plugin, it's awesome !

My player look like this :


#> When there is several element at the same place, there is always one over the second... Maybe add a property for each element, so we can decide the depth of elements... (not clear, I know...)


#> Correct the bug : when we hit "Apply", the selected element jump to the first element..


#> New UI :
See my dropbox folder, with 3 pictures here : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ovehbpusmafhjtg/...yrktAeviqa?dl=0

#> The possibility to give absolute values to elements (and not relative to the X-Y position of the element)


#> The possibility to change the default separator of text when "Scroll Text" is enable..


#> The possibility to select multiple elements (with the Ctrl key pressed), then have a "Move" button to move (up, down, left, right) all selected elements in a direction for 1-2 or a variable amount of pixel !

I managed to make deskband crash explorer in a loop while playing a certain album. I can provide a sample if needed. I suspect it's the albumart.

Win7 64bit with taskbar set to hide automatically, deskband controls 1.0.1 blocks the reappearing of the taskbar if you try to make it reappear where deskband controls is on it.

I see that, but have no idea how to fix for now. Will try though.


I have that too, in Windows 8.1. Exact samething.

Also when i right-click DBcontrols on taskbar for configuring it crashes and doesn't show prefs.

Using 1.1.

NokTham - I have investigated your issue. This is happening because explorer process (taskbar) is still running under non-admin user account and foobar is in admin account. Thus explorer process does not have enough permissions to send messages to elevated foobar process (and that is why buttons and other commands does not work), but foobar process still can send messages to explorer process. This can not be fixed as it is windows security rules.
