[Not my release] Biography view Reply #1 – 2009-04-03 14:38:23 It looks very good, and I concur that Wiki would be nice. It misses a scroll function for longer text though:Well it's still a young plug in, so thank you very much, developer.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #2 – 2009-04-03 14:49:27 Best would be an option to choose the server the infos should come from.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #3 – 2009-04-03 14:57:36 don't want to request too much only happy to see this kind of component being developed
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #5 – 2009-04-03 16:13:22 Yet another great plugin from this developer - thankyou I realise it's still young but I would like to see;1) Scroll bars2) A list of album and a list of artist sources. Selection would be from top to bottom. If no match then move to next source etc.3) If used as an album art only - could we have the usual scaling\fit optionsThat's it for now - thanks again.

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #7 – 2009-04-03 17:39:20 Quote from: tedgo on 2009-04-03 13:22:35I'd like to see something like that doing it with wikipedia, thoughBut its a good starting point Why?Most of the last.fm biographies are sourced from wikipedia:QuotePlease read the following before posting: * Submitted content must not violate copyright. It's illegal to plagiarise someone else's biography of this artist. * You can copy from Wikipedia, or any other GFDL-licensed source, provided that you enter the URL to the source in the sources box below. * All submitted content remains copyright of the author, and is licensed under the GFDL.I also would like to see scroll bars and some sort of option to set a limit size to images or scaling\fit options.this component seems to work well with the default UI + foo_dockable panels. Many thanks, this is a great component!

But I may like to see the whole biography not only a few lines of it And with all artists i now tried with this plugin enabled i only got a short "prologue" Last Edit: 2009-04-03 17:49:58 by tedgo

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #11 – 2009-04-03 19:52:06 hi,wow... great component! thank you very much for this. greets
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #12 – 2009-04-03 20:32:32 i'm really enjoying this component: album mode also fetches album descriptions! btw i think i found a bug:- when the bios/descriptions are big the end of the last sentence gets cut-off by a few words...
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #13 – 2009-04-03 20:52:04 A well developed but simple plugin +1 also for the scrolling. Great plugin so far.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #14 – 2009-04-03 21:00:50 Yes, it is better than i thought.I played around some time now and i love it!
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #15 – 2009-04-03 21:09:13 I'm not sure it needs scrollbars, just for aesthetical reasons. Everyone is always asking if they can hide them, and now all of a sudden they want them! Maybe a link to the last.fm page (e.g. 'read more...') would work? I think this is the reason it can give a briefer description...This is a great component though, thanks very much to the developer.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #16 – 2009-04-03 21:11:08 No not a scroll bar but scrolling option with the mouse wheel at least!It works in ELPlaylist so it should also be possible in Biography view EDIT:I noticed that it doesn't remembers the opacity value...

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #19 – 2009-04-04 13:05:28 Biography view 0.2 with scroll function (mouse-wheel)Yes, that's it! Unfortunately it still doesn't remembers the opacity value...

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #21 – 2009-04-04 13:48:13 1. Would be great if you were able to store specified info in tags once they were downloaded.2. Would be even greater if it were able to get the tags-cloud and do same as (1) with it
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #22 – 2009-04-04 14:08:35 Biography view 0.2.1(very busy today )Quote- opacity to save settings and forget was fixed.(v0.2.1)(translated with Live Search Translator)For me its perfect now Last Edit: 2009-04-04 14:09:25 by tedgo
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #23 – 2009-04-04 17:32:07 QuoteFor me its perfect now Works beautifully. The mouse scroll works better than the scrollbar, didn't come to mind when I thought of that.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #24 – 2009-04-04 17:54:05 mouse scroll doesn't work with foo_dockable_panels...
