hi musicmusic, thank you for your attention.

but really there are no solutions now for using columns UI with fbk o.9.4.5 on win2000? there are no old versions of this components stored somewhere  ? and if so it is, when it's planned the new version of your component?

thank you again, I've appreciated very much your help! 
goodbye and good work!

Not really.. you corrupted the file and changed the part of the file that tells the component a  newer version is required.

Hint: don't edit a binary file with a text editor

I am sorry but I don't care about Windows 2000, nor extremely outdated versions of my components, so I wouldn't go on about them.

For old things in general, try archive.org.

hi musicmusic, thank you even if you can't help me. but now it seems I solved the problem myself: I've found version 0.1.3 beta1v7, date november 2006 (!) - oh, it's so old, sure - that just (miracle!) works! and so I'm an happy boy again! 
I'll take a look at the site you suggest me, starting from this version I can try to upgrade to a version less old.. that's all, for now.

thank you again, and good work again too.. 

foobar is great!

Excuse me for the off-topic, but all standard help links in foobar2000 preferences are currently broken.
Thanks for pointing out, it's fixed now.
Full-quoting makes you scroll past the same junk over and over.

looking for some help for tab stacks - hopefully im in the right thread or should i better have opened a new one?

what im trying to do is having a tab stack with 3 vertical splitters (all/singles/albums). these 3 splitters should be fixed to specified paths like all/singles/albums. i could put filters in each splitter (actually i already have them like genre, year, artist...), but these filters aren't fixed, so when selecting "singles"-tab and select in filter for file-path "singles", it works, like it should, but when switching to tab "album" and back to "singles", i have to re-select file-path "singles" in filter.  how can i fix each tab to only show files in "singles", "albums" or "all"-paths?

thx i.a.

Album List Panel:
Turning off filter with some text don't update album list. I think it should clear filter results and show all music again and not only filter results.

Album List Panel Request:
Right mouse button menu -> Collapse all. Before autorefresh feature I used Refresh command to quickly collapse all items, but no I must find all opened groups and close them manually.

a small request, or for me it would be a great feature

groups in the playlist switcher, I use a lot, lot  of autoplaylist and static playlists and it would be great if I can put them in a group (collapse/expand)

something like

>Static Playlists
  - Playlist 1
  - Playlist 2

< Temporary

> Auto Playlists
  - Playlist 1
  - Playlist 2


is that hard to realize?
anyway, great work, I use columns ui since foobar 0.7 and its getting better and better


//edit

upps sorry its me again
+ rename the auto playlist for the "Filter" panels

Hmm, yes I'll change that, thanks.

Hmm, maybe it could be done without too many tricks. I noted it in the requests list.

Item details: Is there a possibility to hide vertical scrollbar and scroll only with mousewheel? (Only for cosmetic purposes)
It's a can of worms I don't really want to open, I'm afraid.

musicmusic...thanks a lot for your wonderful work!
Would it be posible that you consider an option to hide the vertical scrollbar in the album list panel? 

Columns UI

Reply #4915
Musicmusic, would you please consider fixing this usability glitch?
Hmm.. I will probably come up with something so that single clicking does the trick.

Unfortunately adding font changing to Item details panel has been fairly complicated (when mixed in with word wrapping, colour codes, decent performance and what not). I started it so I will finish it now  After that I will stick to adding small features for a while

Hi, musicmusic.
Firstly, thanks a lot for your hard work and the great Columns UI component.
But, I have a little request: vertical buttons.  I've seen a lot of layouts out there using tricks and complicated scripts to make a simple thing like a button. It's something you already gave us, but I have to agree them: sometimes, it's the only way they could fit in the screen.
So, please consider this.
Thank you again.

(Maybe a very stupid question, but:)
On the Layout Tab in Columns UI Preferences there is an option called "Hidden" besides "Auto-hide", to hide a panel.
But how can i activate the hidden panel, when "Auto-hide" isn't checked additionally?
Is there a command to do it?
Maybe a command that i can use to create a button for?
And if not, what is the sense of this option?

In the columns UI wiki, there is only the explanation:
"Hidden
Hides the panel"

EDIT:
Okay, it is a silly question.
I have disabled "Show caption" and double clicking on the seperator hasn't shown the hidden panel.
I had to activate "Show caption"...

But is there a possibility to show the hidden panel with a button or a command instead of double-clicking on the caption area?

Musicmusic, I don't know if this is a question for you, the core development team, or both, but would it be possible to make things like the built-in album list (not the panel) and playlist/library search windows take their color and font information from Columns UI settings when Columns UI is enabled? As it is, the only way to alter these settings is to switch to the Default UI first, make your changes, and then switch back to Columns UI.

I'm using NG playlist since yesterday. Is it possible to disable artwork for groups with only 1 song within? I.e. show cover images for albums and don't show it for single tracks?

No. If grouping is applied to a playlist and artwork is enabled, it'll show artwork for every group.

Thanks. So, it is a feature request from me  -- conditional artwork show...

Welcome
But, I have a little request: vertical buttons.
It seems like both wrappable buttons and fixed vertical would be possible, though I haven't investigated much more than that. I will note it, probably they would both be useful.

But is there a possibility to show the hidden panel with a button or a command instead of double-clicking on the caption area?
Not really.. there is the "left toggle area", but it has pretty specific uses.

It is out of my hands, really..

Could somebody help me with an artwork script for the NG playlist? I want it do display an image with the word "front" in the filename, and if not found, display the first image it finds in the folder.

I've tried a few things like

$if(*.,*front*.,*.)

Which only shows images called "front.jpg" or "cover.jpg"

and

$if(*front*.*, *front*.*,*.*)

Which works mostly, but seems to be in alphabetical order, i.e. will show "back.jpg" instead of "front.jpg" if they are both in the same folder.

Any help is appreciated.

One minor usability issue I just noticed. I was trying to drag and drop from a Filter Panel to a playlist in the Playlist Switcher. This works as expected except when the Filter Panel and Playlist Switcher are part of a Horizontal Splitter which has the Auto-Hide attribute set. In this case if one hasn't completed the drag and drop within the time specified in Hide Delay then the panels will disappear even if the mouse pointer hasn't left the area in question. Intended?
