The delete button does not work because when I click on a group header, it is not selected at all.

You have to set this up explicitly in the Behavior tab (I believe).

I would like to have one playlist view (CUI or Elplaylist) displaying a Now Playing playlist and in another panel (CUI or Elplaylist) display various playlist such as items selected from Album list or Playlist Tree Mod..

Oh well, may be Peter will read this and look kindly upon me.

There is nothing he can do for you, since you do not use the default playlist view anyway.

The API already allows to access the content of any playlist at any time, but it is up to individual playlist viewers to support that.

question: is it possible to use the drawrect function to color a group when it's selected when it is  still collapsed?

I'm asking because I know that it's used for items when groups are expanded, but it would be nice to use this same feature while groups are still collapsed to edit all items in a group without expanding the group.

Hi,

is it possible to display single tracks in this playlist viewer? I mean this: if there is only one track in a group, don't display header, but display more details (artist, album) on the track.

The playlist of AmaroK 2 is a perfect example of what I'm looking for:

maybe a stupid question, but are there some configs online for ElPlaylist?
I can only find complete foobar configs but I only need the playlist part...  I still have to figure out the code for making it my self and some good examples would be great

Would love to see some examples, too.. Here is my work anyhow as a start: I'm quite sure it could've been done in a much more elegant way though *g*

Yes, this is exactly what I want. But I can't make it work. I have installed your Ibiza config and all single tracks are displayed as albums with one track. What am I doing wrong? Is there any setting which controls this? Thank you.

Does ELPlaylist only support external album art?
I tried ELPlaylist yesterday and it refuses to display embedded arts (i have only files with embedded art).
