Just a quick question is it possible to use toolbars within a window:

Code: [Select]

$panel(Search,Quick Search Toolbar,5,5,200,300,)

but all I get is
"Missing panel: Quick Search Toolbar"
On a side note is there anywhere information available on how to improve efficiency and speed in panels_ui?

Just throwing an idea out here that I had. A new function for popping up context menus. It would be used in a button as such...

$button(DstX,DstY,X,Y,W,H,TEXT,HOVER TEXT,$context(text,command,text,command),OPTIONS)

So let's say you wanted to make a context menu to mimic this one in WMP11.




$button(DstX,DstY,X,Y,W,H,IMAGE,HOVER IMAGE,$context(Format,COMMAND,Bit Rate,COMMAND,Rip CD Automatically When Inserted,COMMAND,Eject CD After Ripping,COMMAND,More Options...,COMMAND,Help With Ripping,COMMAND),OPTIONS)

A $context specific parameter could be $separator for adding horizontal separators. Example... $context(Format,COMMAND,Bit Rate,COMMAND,$separator)

I want to use my desktop background picture as a background pic in foobar, so everything is overlayed on top of it.  That part is easy enough, but I use Wallpaper Master to change my picture every so often.

Is it possible to get PanelsUI to recognise when the wallpaper has changed and update the background picture?  I tried moving the $imageabs2 command into '// PerTrack' but that didn't work.

Just throwing an idea out here that I had. A new function for popping up context menus. It would be used in a button as such...

By the way i think there should be a place when we could put feature requests and where you could refuse them and let us know you refused them. I think this could be great because i made some feature requests taht in my opinion could be good, yet i don't know if you saw them and i don't want to ask them again and put any kind of pressure on you. I know what a great job you do and i want to respect you for that. And yet i want this project to grow more and i think users feature requests are good for that.

Any chance of being able to trigger a per-track change? I really want to overlay some lyrics on cover art. And my new design (http://host.trivialbeing.org/up/foobar-jun...obalbackgro.gif) has a lot of features that would depend on this feature.

$button2 is incredibly frustrating to incorporate into existing text. It'd be great if a button could be created that aligned itself based on the text alignment and the text around it, with width and height defined by the length and height of the text in the button automatically.

i found absolutly no way to open tray context menu... any idea what can be wrong?
panels ui version: 0.13.6 beta (from may 31 2007)

Hi Terrestrial. I trying to make a Last Modified category in the Library Filter so I can see the files that were added/modified last. This is pretty cool, though it would be even better if there was a way to reverse the sorting, and perhaps even limit results to x lines.

I believe you have to use "$panel(Toolbar,..." rather than "$panel(Search,...".

In general, in the layout window, click the "Panels" button towards the upper left corner, and look up the desired panel from the dropdown list.  They will look like "Catagory / Panel Name".  The panel command should then look like "$panel(Catagory,Panel Name,...".

REQUEST:

I've got a request for multi-dimensional variables. I've tried the following without success:

[blockquote]$puts(abc,'str1,str2,str3,...,strN')
$select(n,$get(abc))
[/blockquote]
The reason is obvious: $select is executed before $get and finds only one item. If there is another solution to this problem, please let me know.

Hmm, one more thing. Would it be out of the scope of Panels UI titleformatting to make a $forloop (for loop) function?

None of the playlist info functions work in a ui panel, with the exception of %isplaying%.

Sorry if that has been brought up before, but a search yielded nothing of the sort.

I found a bug on Vista when using $glass for the entire window:


All black text and $drawrect boxes are completely transparent, the background of the items in the library filter panel are actually 150-150-150, but show up white.

hey terrestrial, is there anyway of scrolling and/or truncating text?

You can truncate text with this code:

$ifgreater($len(%title%),35,$left(%title%,32)...,$if(%title%,%title%,'['No Title']'))

That truncates the %title% tag to 32 characters long and appends "..." to the end if the tag is LONGER than 35 characters long. Not sure if the entire thing is needed, but it should be a start?

I think a wiki page might be useful. If you (or someone else) want's to start one, I will try to categorize feature requests.

sort of trying to do it based on a width in pixels, although this is what i was using before the track info panel had those features...

I think a wiki page might be useful. If you (or someone else) want's to start one, I will try to categorize feature requests.

The Panels UI Feature Requests wiki page was made (thanks  Shakey_snake). I categorized it into three sections; Approved, Rejected, and Requests (Pending Review). I added the one feature request I know of that you approved.

I don't know how this is supposed to work so I formatted the lone requests into three parts as well; Title, Brief description, and link to the forum post for a detailed description if need be.

$if($isgrouped(folder),%directoryname%)
$if($isgrouped(date),%date%)
$if($isgrouped(artist),%artist%)
$if($isgrouped(album),$if2($meta(album artist),%album%))
$if($isgrouped(rating),%rating%)
$if($isgrouped(track),%tracknumber%)
$if($isgrouped(title),%title%)

$alignabs(5,20,$sub(%_width%,5),25,left,top)
$font($getpvar(userFont),$add($getpvar(userFontSize),1),bold,0-128-255)

$if($isgrouped(folder),%directoryname%)

$if($isgrouped(album),%album%)
$if($isgrouped(rating),%rating%)
$if($isgrouped(track),%tracknumber%)
$if($isgrouped(title),%title%)

$if($isgrouped(album),
	$alignabs($sub(%_width%,$calcwidth(%date%),40),21,$calcwidth(%date%),25,right,top)
	$font($getpvar(userFont),$getpvar(userFontSize),,)[%date%]

	$alignabs($sub(%_width%,$calcwidth(%genre%),40),4,$calcwidth(%genre%),25,right,top)
	[%genre%]
