Settings for Album Art Viewer

When I double click Album Art Viewer the folder opens, where that cover is saved. Instead, I want to to show Now Playing (the same action as double click the Status Bar). The Wiki says that the Album Art Viewer should have a ton of settings, but I can't find them. It also says:
Quote
Note: This section relates to version 0.2.4.1. Some settings maybe have been added/removed in later versions.
So maybe the settings have been removed in later versions?  :(

So do anyone know if this is possible to do?

Hi there,

That wiki link is talking about Album Art Panel (foo_uie_albumart) for Columns UI - I'm not sure it is available anymore.(?)

Different to Album Art Viewer for Default UI, which indeed opens the folder and has no options for double-clicking.

I guess you could use Spider Monkey Panel and the 'album art.js' sample, however it would need to be modified with a simple double-click function. Someone else here can probably help you with that.

(I mean, I could probably figure it out given several hours to find samples... meanwhile one of our helpful script gurus here could write it up in a few minutes :D :-[ )

Edit: Ok, I think I got it...

Install SMP, click to open the editor, File > Import, find 'album art.js' in the 'user-components\foo_spider_monkey_panel\samples\complete' folder, scroll to this function in the script (line 36) and make it this -

Code: [Select]
function on_mouse_lbtn_dblclk(x, y) {
fb.RunMainMenuCommand("View/Show now playing in playlist");
}

(Did I do it right, gurus?)

Cheers

Also the Wiki says "As of Columns UI v0.3 there is built-in artwork display (panel called Artwork view)".
