I was hoping someone might help me. I'm trying to figure out how to use the sorting feature effectively. Basically what I want to do is this:

I use Album List Panel to display %album artist% - (%date%) - %album%. I have it trimming off any "The" at the front of the artist's name and placing it at the end. Here's my code to do that:

Code: [Select]

$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),'The '),[$trim($cwb_removethe(%album artist%))]', The - ',[%album artist% - ])'('%date%')' - %album%

Pretty simple stuff. What I'd like to do is find a way to apply that sort of formatting to the sorting output of PanelsUI. Right now the Album List reads:

Badly Drawn Boy
Beastie Boys
Beatles, The

Except SCPL displays:

Badly Drawn Boy
Beastie Boys
Beck

with The Beatles sorted in down with other artists whose name starts with a "T". Right now I'm using the Artist/Date/Album sorting. Can anyone help me fix this?

I just had this exact same issue last night . Go to Preferences - Panels UI - Sort/Group By. In the upper window you'll see the various sorting groups - Album, Artist etc etc. If you click 'modify' you can see how they are sorted/grouped. Inserting your code in those fields (make sure that you check the primary and secondary sorting codes for Artist/Date/Album as they appear to overlap) will ensure that it is sorted in the manner you want. It will still display it as 'The Beatles' though. You'd have to edit your SCPL code to have it how you want it in your Album List.

I don't have Foobar on this computer (blasphemy I know ) so I can't walk you through it entirely but that is exactly the way I did it. Hope that helps.

Feature Request
So, right now, if we want our layouts to interact with the internet, we have to have foo_run installed. So that we can send a URL to the command line and it opens in our default browser.

The problem with this, is that every "type" of link we create requires a new button command be entered into to foo_run's preferences by the user, with the correct name as well. This makes sharing this fairly complicated.

now, foo_run can do a lot of command line things that probably aren't needed,
but a button command that would simply go to url's would be very useful

example:

Code: [Select]

$button(,,,,,,,,GOTOURL:'http://www.discogs.com/release/'%discogs_release_id%,tooltip:"Go To Discogs")

I've uploaded 0.12.0. There is a new "Library Filter" panel and I've attached a config file (library.pp) that you can call using a POPUP: button to see how to configure it.

When I set the background colour in the colour picker - it does not reflect in the bg... the colour stays as the default... any idea?

I am using your default library - just trying to change bg colour

Also just tried to add my own library sort and it crashed foobar

I've uploaded 0.12.0. There is a new "Library Filter" panel and I've attached a config file (library.pp) that you can call using a POPUP: button to see how to configure it.

In preference, Library Filter, I click on "new" button to create a new criteria. A little window popups asking me to enter the name of it. When I click on OK, it freezes for less 8 seconds then foobar crashes, without crashlog.
(I'm using Windows XP SP2).
As 4nt1: does the background selection color, in the panel settings do something ? When I select another color, background stick to white. But I can change the color where criterias are displayed changing code.

Wow great idea terrestrial....
Just some ui things:
In the Library filter, could we have an apply button. As it has syntax, it would be cool not to have push ok and redo settings to test things.
I like the fact that layout globals do not appear anymore in the settings page, but could we have a direct access from contextual menu for quick access, and maybe an possible access with a button in the layout, as it is really the center of the customization in my opinion.
The last thing is more like a dream seeing you plugin being more and more complex, i also see that "theming " with it starts to require a lot of work(and i do love that!), and so become more and more important. So as an "idea" not a wish i think it would be great instead of having more and more windows for each panel, popups... to have a tabbed view of the thing. Just like in a browser or an im client. When your first open a config it opens the window, then the others just create a tab inside this window and so on and so on. Just an idea not a wish, i know the implementation is really tricky !

One other thing. As a developer i cannot but admire the way you deal with this plugin, your ideas are really awesome and i think you implement it just right, you listen carefully to our demands while keeping in sight what can be done and what could be the consequences. I cannot but think that you are a developer
Thanks for your work

ok, let's try that again... version should be 0.12.2... it might crash if you delete something from the library filter, but have a panel open with that node displayed and you try to do anything with that node (so click somewhere else and select "Reset").

The background color will be updated after a restart.

Thank you, works good now.

Would it be possible to send it to the playlist when you click on it? Like you can with Playlist Tree.

Oh, and to scroll down, I can only scroll up

scroll up and down works fine for me - I am using from a dockable panel - not sure what difference that makes...

still wondering why foobar needs to restart for the new background colour to change - no other component is like this... some cool possibilities though... playlist tree doesnt work for me very well as I have 500gb of music and it simply cannot cope with that big of a db

can we also have the option for selecting window frame?

what the hell happend to the cover art stuff. Previously I just coded it in the user globals.

1. Can I keep it this way or? and what's the difference in coding the path with $puts(cover,C:\Progrblablabla) and doing this with $setpvar???
This because I thought $puts() also permanentely keeps it's value?

2. And what does the library thing do I can't figure it out...

Can somebody please explain? thanks in advance and sorry for bad English... I'm Dutch

what did you put in the button?

Quote from: kodesh on 2007-05-06 18:33:30

i've done what you advised. removed trackinfo_mod and choose to not keep settings at foobar start.
also commented all code in ui_panels. no other panels are using code besides trackinfo_mod (wich i removed)
once again, foobar is empty (all black) and now using about 90% CPU. i even tought it was azrael's playlist config, but since i removed all panels i guess it's not.

the only other thing to try would be to remove other components and see if that helps (or maybe a new install in a new directory).
