woops my bad. that'd be .12beta not .14beta.

i've tried different fonts and it still does it.
i've tried it on two different machines and one had a fresh install of foobar.

The only way that the playlist switcher can be transparent is if your using ColumnsUI as your default display not panelsUI

But as far as I remember I saw some screenshots of people's panelsUI skins, where playlist switcher was transparent. I'll link a pic if I find one.

Is there any way of having the artists listed by their directory structure, and not by the artist name?

Well, as you can see, there is no playlist switcher panel shown there.
Probably the person who took that screen shot didn't have columnsUI installed.
What blaxima has said is correct.

If you're talking about in the Library filter, then yes. You'll need to change the 'criteria' for that entry in

file -> options -> PanelsUI -> Library filter.

I really hope terrestrial hasn't stopped developing the component cause of bad feedback from older foobar community people.
That would really suck.
There are obviously more than plenty of people that appreciate his work.

Oh, I see. Thanks a lot.

About the developement: hope it's untrue cause PanelsUI brought skinning foobar onto a new level and mostly for the easiness of installing themes, it can really bring new users to foobar, who found adjusting the user interference rather difficult in the past.

Is there a way to have the Library Filter not to show the root of the library and have the list expanded by default rather than having to click the root?

I have it like this:

Library (root)
.. Artist Name
....Album 1
....Album 2

I would like it to have all the artist to display by default rather than having to click on "Library".

Yeah, what do I need to change it to? I changed it to "Directory" but that just listed the albums for each artist by their directories.

It's probably going be a lot of code.

It sounds like maybe an easier solution for you might be to try tagging your files with the %album artist% tag standard if you haven't already.

I'm trying to make the long album titles cut (in order to do not go over the date just like in the following screenshot).



I thought the good solution was putting something like $tabx(30) before %album% but actually, I get an unknown function error when I do so.

Anyone knows how could I solve this problem ?

foo_ui_panels

Reply #2235 –
$tabx(30) is new syntax, have you put $newsyntax() somewhere in the SCPL config?

Anyways, perhaps you could try to cut the album title (you'd have to calc the space available for it and how long it could be.. don't know if it's a good solution, just came to my mind)

Well. I don't know how panelsui work but I'd probably sove it with the  $cut(a,len) function (where a is the string and len the length)...

Thanks for your answers.

Unfortunately, none has solved my problem :

eisteh > what do you mean by SCPL config ? I've put directly at the beggining of "group display" $newsyntax() and it does the same. If I put the old syntax $_tabs(30), it does the same too.

zachastrife > I thought about the cut function too, but I just hate this solution. It cuts the words after a certain number of letters, I'd prefer something who cuts the words depending on a number of pixels as 30 "i" doesn't fit the same space as 30 "m"... (other problem: if I maximize the windows, the titles will be very short).

$alignabs()
Quote
$alignabs(x,y,width,height,h-align,v-align)
parameters
...

width

    The width of the bounding rectangle

height

    The height of the bounding rectangle
...

This is very easy. What you want to do is shrink the size of the "bounding rectangle".
since you want to adjust the size of it based on the width of the window. You'll want to make sure you use %_width% in figuring out the width parameter of the $alignabs().
I'm not going to do it for you.

I would also do it like you just suggested, shakey_snake. Though i've have seen that text, which was "cut" by alignabs, behaves very strange sometimes.

@ Superunknown: For tabx(x), perhaps you need something like alignabs first? Perhaps tabx doesnt know relative to what the text should be indented?

To help you out with alignabs:
Code: [Select]
$alignabs(5,0,$eval(%_width%-30),%_height%,left,middle)
%artist%$char(10)
%album%


This did the trick for me. You would have to add another $alignabs for the date tag, though. You should be able to figure that out by yourself as its pretty easy.

shakey_snake's solution works like a charm ! Thank you very much !
Then, to make it works perfectly, do you think it's possible to add 3 dots ("...") when a text is cut, just like it does with Columns UI ?

Has found a bug!

In "File" -> "Preferences" -> "Display" -> "Panels UI" -> ("Track Globals" or "User Globals") if use $fileexists(...) but if used $cwb_fileexists(...) its OK.

For example:
Code: [Select]
$puts(isWithCue,
$if($cwb_fileexists($get(dir_path)%filename%.cue),
    1
))

Then in "File" -> "Preferences" -> "Display" -> "Panels UI" -> "Sort/Group" -> "Some Criteria" $get(isWithCue) always return false, but in "Single Column Playlist"-> "Item Display" work well (not always return false)

Since terrestrial still MIA, I decided not to use Foobar anymore. Until he comes back I'll be using Windows Media Player 11.

Not natively. Just make 2 buttons with the same position like
Code: [Select]
$imagebutton(5,5,/image.jpg,/image-hover.jpg,PVAR:SET:something:value)
$imagebutton(5,5,/image.jpg,/image-hover.jpg,WINDOWSIZE:300:100,tooltip,'any text')


The order of the buttons MAY be important. Some commands don't work if they are below another button or vice versa.

Nope. But I'm pretty sure you can place multiple buttons in one spot - someone, by all means, correct me because I'm not sure about that totally

Found a bug: When you remove the windowborders, the mouse resize-cursor does not show when it leaves panelsui, only when it enters. Just a little annoying.

Edit: And btw, I'm sure that terrestrial is fine, he's probably just pissed over the flamewar between him and the developers. See his latest posts. Just a shame that something like that ends development of great components.

With disabled titlebar, I can only resize the window on the top (including the top corners) At least the resize cursor wont show up anywhere else (no matter if I go from panels_ui -> border or from outside panels_ui -> border)
Did anyone mention already, that the title bar buttons (close, minimize/maximize, exit) loose onMouseOver focus when something in panels_ui is updated? As soon as something changes (progressbar advances, playback time changes) the buttons mouseOver effect disappears though my mouse is still on it.
