Thanks for the update. Glad to see that arrow up now jumps correctly over the group descriptions.

Maybe I am not say something stupid now because I don't know what
I like the way you can modiy the playlist the way you want.
I miss just some things:
- drag and drop for the titles
- the option  set goup rows to zero and so not appearing in playlist
- maybe something similar to a header so that you can easy sort music as  you want (I use some buttons for some sorting)

And really for the newbies a really good tutorial because I found it really hard to modify the playlist

Ooh, the UI has become ultra slow now! When I switch through playlists, there's a very noticable lag. Between redrawing everything is grey. OK, I'm only on an intel p3/800 thinkpad, but this is not quake3?

I can confirm the selection bug aswell.
Squeller, What size is your playlists? My tiny 2000 track lists take no more than a split second to draw.

With the bigger playlists, which have about 1500 entries, I see grey for about half a second. But with the small ones (100 entries) the look and feel is still as if it was bloatware, maybe 0.2 seconds of grey.

is there any way for the group display to know whether it is singles or album? i can get it to work in the item display but not in the group.

Also is there a way to create a playlist of just singles / or just albums?

You can control whether headers appear or not by making the result of the Group By box be !noheader! - for example, mine is:

Code: [Select]
$ifgreater($num(%totaltracks%,2),01,%album%%disc%,!noheader!)


Which results in albums getting headers and singles not. Singles are denoted by their TOTALTRACKS tag, Which should be set to 1.

mmh, strange behaviour in the newest version:
when I select mulitple files with shift or strg and left-click to edit their properties it selects only a single file
but I think this is due to the rewriting of the keyboard/mouse handling

Yeah, If you read a few posts back, Some people noticed that. terrestrial will probably fix it for the next revision

AHHHH i hadnt set my singles to have 1 as the total tracks. now it all makes sense thank you

Is !noheader! suppose to not show the header? for me it actually outputs the text "!noheader!"

.. and make sure you're running one of the latest versions

Thanks for the component

Only the simple 'space' will separate words. All other breaking symbols in unicode fonts are treated as non-breaking joiners.

Example
Code: [Select]
$replace(
$substr(%path%,$strstr(%path%,$meta(artist,0)),$strrchr(%path%,'\'))
,\, \ )

appending a zero-width space, instead of regular spaces, on both sides of backslashes will not have the effect of \ appearing to separate words

My group display looks like this:

Code: [Select]
$drawrect(0,0,0,0,brushcolor-35-35-35 pencolor-0-0-0)

$alignabs(100,5,$add(%_width%,-107),30,left,top)
$font(tahoma,15,bold,200-200-200)
$if2(%album artist%,%artist%)
 $font(tahoma,12,bold,200-200-200)%album%
blah blah blah


Which gives a look like this:



As you can see in the group display, it's %artist% %album% (in the smaller font). This works great, however on really long artist and album titles, like "Agoraphobic Nosebleed - PCP Torpedo & ANbRX" the text is too wide for the single column playlist. Is there any way to make ellipses for "%artist% %album%" that is too wide to fit in the column? If not ellipses, is there a way to use $cut(x,y) that would encapsulate %artist% and %album%?

Thank you.

edit:

Yotsuya gave me the following sample code:

Code: [Select]
$drawrect(0,0,0,0,brushcolor-35-35-35 pencolor-0-0-0)

$alignabs(100,5,$add(%_width%,-107),30,left,top)

$left(
$font(tahoma,15,bold,200-200-200)
$if2(%album artist%,%artist%)
$font(tahoma,12,bold,200-200-200)
%album%
,30)
$ifgreater($len(
$font(tahoma,15,bold,200-200-200)
$if2(%album artist%,%artist%)
$font(tahoma,12,bold,200-200-200)
%album%
),30,...,)


However, $left() applies to the text inside the parenthesis, not the variable %album%.

heh, sorry I thought it would process the $font, I guess it doesnt because it's not a real titleformat command. try this:

Code: [Select]
$drawrect(0,0,0,0,brushcolor-35-35-35 pencolor-0-0-0)

$alignabs(100,5,$add(%_width%,-107),30,left,top)

$font(tahoma,15,bold,200-200-200)
%album artist%
$font(tahoma,12,bold,200-200-200)
$left( %album%,$sub(30,$len(%album artist%)))
$ifgreater($len(%album artist% %album%),30,...,)


Notes:
- You dont need to do $if2(%album artist%,%artist%) because foobar automatically maps %artist% for any missing %album artist%
- The position to clip the album name will change with the length of the artist name, so you want to apply the caclulations on the entire string not just %album%

I normally use SCPL but sometimes I switch via hotkey to my lyrics layout, after switching back from my lyrics layout to my SCPL layout playlist is like in the after screenshot. This can be fixed just like LXtreme said, switch to another playlist and it is shown correctly...


do you think you could post your config for the scpl?

Question to those of you with graphic overlay (more so png) intensive setups, does it lag when you scroll (fast)?

Odd behavior with new selections?

Well I've noticed that the new SCPL allows us to click on a header to select all the items in the group.. this is nice. It even allows Ctrl+Click on multiple headers to select multiple groups. The problem though is that if I right click on selected tracks, the selection changes to only the track I right clicked on. This is particularly bothersome when trying to tag multiple tracks to make an album. I did notice though, that Ctrl+Rightclick will work in the way normal rightclick was expected.

Can we get some sort of $set_global() and $get_global() support?

I'm basically looking to store a variable between groups. I'd like to have only the first group that belongs to an artist to display the artist's name. The groups afterwards that belong to the same artist would just have blank space. The look I'm going for is the WMP11 look.

Is there a way simelar to !noheader! in group display, to control item display, or is it impossible to control playlists this way?
Can't wait for a HD-AAC encoder :P
