Quick question: is there a command for either the text or the image buttons that allows you to hide/close the current panel? (ie, the panel that the button is contained in).

Is there any way to choose the rendering order of panels (ie which panel is rendered on top of the others and such like)? The reason I ask is that I would like some drop down menus to be displayed over the playlist, but at the moment the playlist seems to rendered on top of everything else.

EDIT: Nevermind, got it. That was n00bishly simple of myself.

so how did you do it?

I'm curious, is there a way to emulate
$if($or(%ps_ispause%,$not(%ps_isplaying%)),

But for the play type? i.e. default and or shuffle.

I've been thinking of trying to get around this, with putting a blank image button under

$textbutton(200,$sub(%_height%,36),20,20,??,??,COMMAND:'',fontcolor:0-0-255,fontcolor:255-0-0)
$textbutton(200,$sub(%_height%,36),20,20,??,??,COMMAND:'',fontcolor:0-0-255,fontcolor:255-0-0)

The problem is, I've got no idea how to hide and or display one text button and hiding the other with the image button.

If anyone had an idea, I'd be grateful.

Sure.

I have two textbuttons.
One makes foobar play stuff in default, the other in shuffle mode.

Now I'm trying to display each button according to the mode that is selected.

I.e. if default play mode is selected, the shuffle mode button appears and vice versa.

is it possible to use a button to set a tag through quicktagger? i tried every way of writing the command that came to my mind, but it won't work
CONTEXT: 'Tagging/Quick Tagger:Set<RATING>to:1';

$font(Wingdings 3,10,)

$if($isvisible_c(Filter),

$textbutton(200,$sub(%_height%,36),20,20,U,U,PANELSHOW:Filter:0;COMMAND:'Playback/Order/Random';REFRESH:1,fontcolor:0-0-255,fontcolor:255-0-0)
,
$textbutton(200,$sub(%_height%,36),20,20,r,r,PANELSHOW:Filter:1;COMMAND:'Playback/Order/Random';REFRESH:1,fontcolor:0-0-255,fontcolor:255-0-0)
,)

i just figured out there is a problem with this method:
foobar remembers playback order when you restart it, but the panel is either shown or not, depending on your settings.

i solved the problem with a command line in my foobar-shortcut which sets playbackorder to default (or whatever i want) on startup.

since foobar2000.exe /command:Playback/Order/Default didn't work (anyone got an idea why?), i used foo_runcmd and set my shortcut to foobar2000.exe /runcmd=Playback/Order/Default

hey guys & dear experts

I'm trying to create a button to manipulate multiple items selected from a playlist using the COMMAND properties.
If I use the properties function through the context menu it works for all my selected items from the playlist (standard functionality of fb2k).

If I call the properties function through a button in PSS (also in track mod info), it handles only the first item of the selection in the playlist. 

Is there any solution for that?

there are only two ways that i now of:
either you use Columns UI's standard buttons, or you use foobars command lines, using /playlist_command:|conext command>(commandline guide)
You can execute this command with run services (foo_run)
In track info panel, you can make a button to run this service.
Unfortunately, you can't start a run service trough a PPS-button

But i prefer track info panel for buttons anyway, since PPS buttons have some problems like flickering or being stuck on mouseover-effect if you move the mouse out of the panel splitter area.
I use PPS buttons only if necessary, e.g. for panel switching
