one thing that I'm really missing in the library filter is that it doesn't go automatically further to the next level if something is !null!
an example to make myself clear:

level 1;$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,Vinyl),Vinyl,$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,CD),CD,Unknown))
level 2:$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,Vinyl),%discogs_label%,!null!)
level 3:$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,Vinyl),%discogs_catalog%,%album%)

It would be cool if the discogs label is not shown if the vinyl is not present in the discogs_format tag but that it would then just shows level three en sorts on album

level 1;$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,Vinyl),Vinyl,$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,CD),CD,Unknown))
level 2:$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,Vinyl),%discogs_label%,%album%)
level 3:$if($strstr(%discogs_format%,Vinyl),%discogs_catalog%,!null!)

Anyway why do the characters 'ACK' with a black background get put on the active line in the edit box if CTRL+F are pressed. What does this 'ACK' thing mean?

Was $get_global support in SCPL removed? If so any reason why, as it works in Track Display :s. I don't want to copy and paste my complex globals into half of my config.

Feature request. The ability to add entries (links to .pp files) in the Library menu. Would be a cool feature imo since I have the Library Filter in a separate window, and I can't currently find a good place in my design to put a link for it. The Library menu would be perfect.

I just updated my panelsui from 0.13.5 to 0.13.8 and now I have some squares before everything in my Library filter (everything but the headers) First i thought it had something to do with my config, but it also happens with the basic.pui. I also tried to remove everything but %criteria% in the layout settings but there were still squares.

Is it possible in the library filter to have subcategories that exist based on tags? For example: if I have some songs that don't have a date specified, I want them grouped in a 'No Date' group that isn't expandable. The songs that do have a date are grouped in 80s,90setc and can be expanded to 1991,1992 etc. With my current config i get Dates>90s>1991, but I also get dates>No Date>? where I would like Dates>No Date.

Any chance of one of the Sort By defaults being "By Directory"?

Hi,

I cannot get the matroska transparent access to attachment file (ex. matroska://%path%|cover.jpg) to work with uie_panels. Is it possible anyway ?

$button2 bug

I am finding that placing a $button2 command inside an $if statement causes changes to $alignabs and hence the positioning of text. This $alignabs is NOT within the $if, but prior to it.

Commenting out the $button2 section removes the error. Taking $button2 outside of the $if and placing ABOVE the $alignabs fixed the problem, when below the problem persisted.

It is irrelevant of the command in the $if statement and commenting out other things within the $if gave no fix.

EDIT: The bug only occurs if the $button2 is in the vicinity of the $alignabs command.

Seems to be some conflict between $alignabs and $button2

In ColumnsUI, there's an 'Activate now playing' menu option which selects the current track, which I've been binding to the F5 key.  Handy when you've scrolled away in a long playlist and want to get back quickly.  If this menu item was available in PanelsUI, I could finally get rid of ColumnsUI.

I never realised ColumnsUI was still needed for Panels.

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?

Can at least someone confirm this behavior so I know that resizing of popups is not possible? Maybe there is a conflict between %_width% and %_height% from the popup and the main window?

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.

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%.

Where exactly must I add some code (which code?) to support the new tray tip feature?
Thanks

I need a bit of help with something I am running into with my configuration. I am trying to make my own from scratch, and I need a bit of help with some coding issues.

What I want to do is have a button that when pressed, will display panel X and hide panel Y. Then, when that button is pressed again, panel X is hidden, and panel Y comes back again. Is this possible? If so, how?

Thanks .

$button(blah-blah-blah......,PVAR:SET:var:$ifequal($getpvar(var),0,1,0))

$ifequal($getpvar(var),0,$panel(panel A),$panel(panel B))

Im having trouble getting my SCPL to be transparent. It has a background colour set via the "..." background colour button in the editor box which I can find no way of removing.

EDIT: I am a douche and missed that checkbox.

Or you can simply toggle some pvar's value with just one button,and display panel according to it.
Example:

Code: [Select]

$button(blah-blah-blah......,PVAR:SET:var:$ifequal($getpvar(var),0,1,0))

$ifequal($getpvar(var),0,$panel(panel A),$panel(panel B))

// Global
$puts(dir2,'C:\Program Files\foobar2000\FoOrby\buttons\')

// PerTrack
$panel(Search,Quick Search Toolbar,70,0,300,20,)
$panel(Title,Track Display,70,0,500,20,)

$button(48,1,0,0,15,15,$get(dir2)search.png,$get(dir2)search.png,,PVAR:SET:var:$ifequal($getpvar(var),0,1,0))
$ifequal($getpvar(var),0,$panel(Search),$panel(Title))

$if($strcmp(%cwb_playback_order%,Shuffle (tracks)),
    $button($get(xOffset),$get(yOffset),0,0,0,0,$get(button path)\Random.png,$get(button path)\Random-mousover.png,Default,$if(%glass%,nobkgnd) TOOLTIP:Default Playback)
,
    $button($get(xOffset),$get(yOffset),0,0,0,0,$get(button path)\Random.png,$get(button path)\Random-mousover.png,Shuffle (tracks),$if(%glass%,nobkgnd) TOOLTIP:Random Playback)
)

I'm having problems with a button to change playback order (ie switch between random and default playback). I think it might be because the menu comand has parenteses in in?  The code is as follows:

Code: [Select]

$if($strcmp(%cwb_playback_order%,Shuffle (tracks)),
    $button($get(xOffset),$get(yOffset),0,0,0,0,$get(button path)\Random.png,$get(button path)\Random-mousover.png,Default,$if(%glass%,nobkgnd) TOOLTIP:Default Playback)
,
    $button($get(xOffset),$get(yOffset),0,0,0,0,$get(button path)\Random.png,$get(button path)\Random-mousover.png,Shuffle (tracks),$if(%glass%,nobkgnd) TOOLTIP:Random Playback)
)

It didn't work with the $if function in the button arguments, and when I make a button that just sets the order to default, it works, but when I make one that just sets it to Suffle (tracks), it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Try these for your COMMAND parameter:

'Playback/Order/Default'
'Playback/Order/Shuffle (tracks)'

That's what I use for mine, and it works.
