That's why callbacks like on_playback_stop exist.

Yes, but this does not answer my question. or does it?

If I stop a song, and then press play, it isn't that foobar is remembering what the song is, it's just playing from the current position of the active playlist.

var g_metadb = fb.GetNowPlaying() // could be a valid handle or null

function on_playback_new_track(metadb) {
    g_metadb = metadb; // always a valid handle
}

function on_mouse_lbtn_up(x, y) {
    if (g_metadb) {
        //code here would run even if playback has stopped so long as g_metadb was valid at some point previously
    }
}

function on_playback_stop(reason) {
   g_metadb = null;
}

'use strict';

window.DefinePanel('Menu Button', {author:'marc2003'});
include(fb.ComponentPath + 'samples\\complete\\js\\lodash.min.js');
include(fb.ComponentPath + 'samples\\complete\\js\\helpers.js');
include(fb.ComponentPath + 'samples\\complete\\js\\panel.js');

let panel = new _panel(true);
let buttons = new _buttons();
buttons.buttons.menu = new _button(0, 0, 36, 36, {normal : 'misc\\foobar2000.png'}, (x, y, mask) => { _menu(0, 36); }, 'Menu');

function on_focus(is_focused) {
	if (is_focused) {
		plman.SetActivePlaylistContext();
	}
}

function on_colours_changed() {
	panel.colours_changed();
	window.Repaint();
}

function on_mouse_lbtn_up(x, y, mask) {
	buttons.lbtn_up(x, y, mask);
}

function on_mouse_leave() {
	buttons.leave();
}

function on_mouse_move(x, y) {
	buttons.move(x, y);
}

function on_mouse_rbtn_up(x, y) {
	if (buttons.buttons.menu.trace(x, y)) {
		_help(0, 36);
		return true;
	} else {
		return panel.rbtn_up(x, y);
	}
}

function on_paint(gr) {
	panel.paint(gr);
	buttons.paint(gr);
}

function on_size() {
	panel.size();
}

I am using the sample script of the menu button. I would love to add an onHover image to the menu image though.
Can someone give me pointers into the right direction?

{normal : 'misc\\foobar2000.png'}

{normal : 'misc\\foobar2000.png', hover : 'buttons\\menu_hover.png'}

Hi.  I'm I've been racking my brain, trying to create a custom list of my library and I just can't seem to figure it out.  Basically, I want to list all of my artists and then albums.

fb.ShowPopupMessage(listByTag("artist").join("\n"));


function listByTag(tag){
    let tags = [];
    let items = fb.GetQueryItems(fb.GetLibraryItems(), tag + " PRESENT");
    for (let i = 0; i < items.Count; i++) {
        let num = fb.TitleFormat("$meta_num(" + tag + ")").EvalWithMetadb(items[i]);
        for (let j = 0; j < num; j++) {
            tags.push(fb.TitleFormat("$meta(" + tag + "," + j + ")").EvalWithMetadb(items[i]));
        }
    }
    return [...new Set(tags)].sort();
}

not guaranteed to be called during unloading.?

I think that was inherited from WSH panel mod and I've never given it a moments thought. I guess I should test/update the docs. I'm pretty sure it's always called but the original dev was just being extra cautious.

In addition to the SMP docs you quoted, it should also be called when removing/replacing a panel in layout editing mode.

function on_script_unload() {
	_tt('');
}

function message(name) {
    console.log("hello", name);
}

function message(name) {
    console.log("bye", name);
}

message("zeremy"); // always outputs "bye zeremy"

Quick hack, complete\js\thumbs.js, line 492

^Forget I posted that. It will lead to undesirable/buggy behaviour. It could be done properly but I'm far too lazy for that.

	this.update = () => {
		this.image = 0;
		this.files = [];
		this.images = [];
		_(_getFiles(this.folder, this.exts, false))
			.map((item) => {
				var img = gdi.Image(item);
				return {
					path : item,
					image : img,
					area : img.Width * img.Height
				};
			})
			.orderBy((item) => {
				return item.area;
			}, 'desc')
			.forEach((item) => {
				this.files.push(item.path);
				this.images.push(item.image);
			});
		this.size(true);
		window.Repaint();
	}

This might work instead...

@wcs13 , it might be possible to implement such logic in the script (ignoring low-res images that is), but I'm currently prioritizing component development over script improvement. In other words it won't be fixed anytime soon, sorry.

• Check image 1. If enough-res, save it, or else ignore it. Go to the next image.
• Repeat until you have n enough-res saved images.
• In some cases, if after parsing all the images (some artists have very few images) we don't have n saved images, then save some low-res images too until we have n saved images.
