Hey, I guess you took ideas from my status bar for yours then
Anyway, I've got a new string (b14) now (im guessing the forum will mess up some of the characters):
playlist
CACACA|3A3A3A$padcut([%artist%],20) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A $padcut([%title%],71) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A $padcut([%album%],19) 7F7F7F│ $padcut([%date%],4) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A $padcut([%genre%],10) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A $padcut([%__replaygain_track_gain%],7) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A $padcut([%__bitrate%kbps],7) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A $padcut([$ifgreater(%__channels%,2,==,$ifgreater(%__channels%,1,--,-))],2) 7F7F7F│CACACA|3A3A3A[ %_length%]
tooltip, window title,
%artist% - %title%
file info
[%__bitrate%kbps ][%__samplerate%Hz ]$if(%__channels%,$ifgreater(%__channels%,2,%__channels%ch,$ifgreater(%__channels%,1,stereo,mono)) ,)[%__extrainfo% ][$ext(%_filename_ext%)]
statusbar
| [Track: $num(%Tracknumber%,2) | ][Year: %date% | ][Genre: %genre% | ][Gain: $cut(%__replaygain_track_gain%,5)dB | ]
Playlist font: Monofur point 8
Playlist text colour: 202,202,202
Pl background: 55,56,65
selection: 148,149,163
item frame: 205,205,205
The idea behind the playlist string is when foobar is in normal size (not maximised) it will display artist, title, album, length. but when its maximised it will display everything else, i find it very useful!
edit: where thers a │ it needs replacig as describe earlier in this thread
