i've updated the "simple biograhy" script to use the new redirection feature made available in the last.fm API. this helps if your files are incorrect tagged.

old version of script with wrong tags / new script with spelling correction off


new version of script, wrong tags, spelling correction on:


note this does not touch your file tagging at all. it's simply for display purposes.

function on_paint(gr) {

var Buttons = new Array;
Buttons[0]=new Button( 10, 80, 200, 75, {normal: images_BB + "Start_wide.png", hover: images_BB + "Start_wide.png"}, function(){blablabla}, "blablabla");
Buttons[1]=new Button( 10, 160, 200, 75, {normal: images_BB + "Start_wide.png", hover: images_BB + "Start_wide.png"}, function(){blablabla}, "blablabla");

var ChartType = 'Top2000';

var ChartType_img = gdi.Image(fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\f003\\BB\\"+ ChartType + ".png");
        Buttons[0].draw(gr);
        Buttons[1].draw(gr);

}

Is it possible to change the colour of text contained in brackets, similar to how it can be done with columns ui.

$replace(%title%,']',$rgb(0,0,0),'[',$rgb(255,0,0))

The $rgb function does not work with WSH Panel Mod.

When is callback on_script_unload() get called? Is it only when foobar starts?

When is callback on_script_unload() get called? Is it only when foobar starts?

Is there a way to declare a var only at the start of loading the panel?
If tried to use window.onload, but this gives me an error.

If you DONOT change the value assigned to a variable declared at the beginning of the panel's script, the variable is unchanged.

Actually, under current non-fast mode, all the variable do not need declaring when used.

EineVariable = 2;
is equal to
var EineVariable = 2;

Maybe I need to explain what I want to do.

At start I want to read a string from an ini file,
that string I want to use as an default value in a var.
When there is an event, for instance a mouse click, another value is assigned to that var.

What you want is so weird, 'cause it's exactly how a program assign its own variables.
.......

var EineVar = "Initialized";
function on_mouse_lbtn_down(x,y,mask){
fb.trace(EineVar);
EineVar  = "Changed";
fb.trace(EineVar);
}

/////////////////
//the console looks like:
//Initialized
//Changed

Is it?
BTW, window.GetProperty is much more useful and opreatable than ReadINI.

That's right.
But, I tried to use what you described dozens of times.
I use the var to determine if value a or b is used.
And that value I use to decide whether image a or image b is shown.
When instead of an image I use a text, It works.

The difference between the image and the text is,
that to show the image, I put the var in another var to declare the path to the image.
I can't lay my finger on the problem.

just tell me how did you "put the var in another var".

well, I put it something like this:
var c = gdi.image("path" +var a + ".png")

I got it.

"path" is a string.
//////////////////////////codes below should work
var Path = fb.FoobarPath+"skins\\boo_boo\\";
var a = "test";
var c = gdi.image(path + a + ".png");

//////////////////now, c is the object of Image.

@falstaff, Neonphytismo: I intended to said exit but wrote start instead, got a hang over, but I guess that helped me get an answer faster. Thanks both of you.

I got it.

"path" is a string.
//////////////////////////codes below should work
var Path = fb.FoobarPath+"skins\\boo_boo\\";
var a = "test";

var NewPlayList;
function on_size() {
    ww = window.Width;
    wh = window.Height;
 var   NewPlayList= utils.ReadINI(fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\WSH_scripts\\foo7.ini", 'Playlists', 'ChartName');
}

function on_playlists_changed(){
  var  NewPlayList= utils.ReadINI(fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\WSH_scripts\\foo7.ini", 'Playlists', 'ChartName');
window.Repaint();
}

var path = fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\f003\\BB\\";
var img = gdi.Image(path + NewPlayList +".png");
function on_paint(gr) {

gr.DrawImage(img, 10, 80 , 200, 75, 0, 0, 200, 75);
}

var NewPlayList;
function on_size() {
    ww = window.Width;
    wh = window.Height;
NewPlayList= utils.ReadINI(fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\WSH_scripts\\foo7.ini", "Playlists", "ChartName");
}

function on_playlists_changed(){
NewPlayList= utils.ReadINI(fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\WSH_scripts\\foo7.ini", "Playlists", "ChartName“);
window.Repaint();
}

var path = fb.FoobarPath + "foo\\f003\\BB\\";
//var img = gdi.Image(path + NewPlayList +".png");

function on_paint(gr) {
var img = gdi.Image(path + NewPlayList +".png");
img && gr.DrawImage(img, 10, 80 , 200, 75, 0, 0, 200, 75);
}

Also, I recommend to use window.GetProperty() method, and String Data Type should only be quoted by " ";

 

fb.RunMainMenuCommand("View/Switch to playlist/"+source_playlist_name);
fb.RunMainMenuCommand("Select All");
lista = fb.GetSelections(1);
