EDIT: @shakey_snake: this will only update the pvar "total_playtime" if the value is the same with %playback_time_seconds%. thats not what i want, too.

$ifequal(%playback_time_seconds%,$getpvar(total_playtime),,
      $setpvar(total_playtime,$eval($getpvar(total_playtime)+1))
      )

i search a function to "save" the value of the already played seconds of every song you have played, just like the information in the fb2k config ("File"->"Preferences"->the "Playback" panel-> there under "Total Time Played". Or is there any function to get exactly this value? i dont have found something, so i want to write this function...

$ifequal(%playback_time_seconds%,$getpvar(vbr_check),,
        $setpvar(total_playtime,$eval($getpvar(total_playtime)+1))
        $setpvar(vbr_check,%playback_time_seconds%)
        )

...we'll need to modify the code:

Code: [Select]

$ifequal(%playback_time_seconds%,$getpvar(vbr_check),,
        $setpvar(total_playtime,$eval($getpvar(total_playtime)+1))
        $setpvar(vbr_check,%playback_time_seconds%)
        )

It's there, I use it all the time within PanelsUI.  You might have to remap your F5 key to point to it, but it's there!

Are you sure, Maranatha?  If I remove ColumnsUI, I can't find any menu options to select the currently playing track.  Just in case I'm looking in the wrong place, can you tell me where you find yours?  Thanks.

don't you need columns_ui installed to use panels_ui?? so if you removed columns, then I guess this option disappears (b/c it stand below column at keyboard shortcuts) ...got no other idea, I have columns_ui installed and use panels_ui and got the feature...

$ifequal(
	$get(isSingle),1,! Singles
,
	%album%
)

$imageabs2(%_width%,%_height%,0,0,%_width%,%_height%,0,0,..\images/wmp/mbar.png,NOKEEPASPECT)
$imageabs2(%_height%,%_height%,0,0,%_height%,%_height%,0,0,


$if($fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.jpg)),
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.jpg),
images\wmp\no cover.png)

,NOKEEPASPECT)
$imageabs2(%_width%,%_height%,0,0,%_width%,%_height%,0,0,..\images/wmp/mbar.png,NOKEEPASPECT alpha-60)

Works fine...
Maybe check your keybord shortcuts ?

I would agree.  Re-install ColumnsUI, and the command should be available once again.

I never realised ColumnsUI was still needed for Panels.  Just thought I could trim some of the fat from Foobar.  Thanks, both.

Resizing popups with button and WINDOWSIZE.

Is this possible? All I notice is that the parent window sizes change (what I don't want) and the popup stays the same. Is this a bug? Can this be changed in a future update of PanelsUI?

Request

Would it be possible to change the sort order from columns to rows with the option to start a new row when the end of the window has been reached?

What I'm thinking about is to make a layout with only a 'Group Display' which contains only covers. Something similar to the 'Album List' plugin of winamp?

You are the man  thanks. it works well. sometimes, espacially on trackchange the issue is still there. but it's much better now...

once more, thanks a lot...

$transparentON()

$transparentOFF()

$settitle($if($or(%ispaused%,$not(%isplaying%)),Foobar2000,%artist% - %title%))
$settray($if($or(%ispaused%,$not(%isplaying%)),Foobar2000,%artist% - %title%))

I have read the Request Page. This feature is listed only for Library Filter. If this means that's also available in SCPL, fine. If not, it would be great to implement this for SCPL, too.

Hey guys,

How does your CPU usage fair for your layouts with quite a bit of titleformat code and many Track Display sub-panels?

Without any DSPs, mine jumps from 2% to 7% on average. I don't understand why it fluctuates so much, considering I do not have any code in the PerSecond redraw type. If I understood correctly, button functions are processed differently regardless of the redraw type they are in -- Could that be the culprit? Because I do have quite a bit of them.

I wouldn't mind hearing some tips on making more efficient titleformat scripts. This could be useful for everyone as I think the layouts seem to be getting bigger and more complex in general. I'd love to hear some from Terrestrial.

From my understanding you just want a border around your album art?

Use $drawrect instead of $imageabs2 for a border.

$drawrect(X-i,Y-i,W+i,H+i,brushColor-null penColor-R-G-B OPTIONS)
$imageabs2(...)

Where X, Y, W, H are all the same coordinates as your $imageabs2 album art.  And i is the size of the border in pixels. So for a black 1 pixel border $drawrect would look like this...

$drawrect(X-1,Y-1,W+1,H+1,brushColor-null penColor-0-0-0)

I would say that by far the most important thing is whether or not you have transparent back grounds on anything.
I don't and with a pretty complex layout, with quite a few panels, I stay between 0%-1%.
