Working really well. Would it make sense to have ENTER do the same thing as a double-click when a browser pane is focused? It would help when using keyboard navigation.

Changing the selection color requires overriding some of the functionality of the list view so I doubt that is going to happen anytime soon...

Oh well. 

Also, there is an extremely annoying bug with the horizontal scrollbar. I have the panel resized so it shouldn't be there (ie: the panel is wide enough to fit the contents in without scrolling). However, as soon as I restart foobar its back. If I resize the panel, even 1px, it'll disappear until I restart again.

Did I miss something or isn't it possible to use for example %<genre>% to display tracks with multiple tag values seperatly for each of the multiple values.
Example: a genre tags contains the multiple values Metal\Death\Technichal and is displayed in the genre panel under Metal as well as under Death and Technichal instead of displaying it under Metal, Death, Technichal.
Hope you got me and it's possible to implement if it isn't yet.

You use 'genre' (instead of '%genre%').

I just got an idea. If you look at musikcube, it uses a similar browser system. What I like about it, though, is that when you click on the panel headers you can change them. So, for example I could change to any one of the five presets quickly. Also, speaking of presets, it would be nice if we could define more than the 5 presets and give us a way to quickly rearrange them. You could use a listbox, for example, in the settings dialogue with all of the panel presets.

What about adding an option *not* to show the entire library at the begening, but the playlist that was used when foobar was closed?

If i remember right, i think someone asked about saving states between sessions for the album list or something like that, and the developer basically said that that was too hard to be worth it.

listviews dont have an option to turn off the horizontal scroll without overriding some functionality, so it probably isnt going to happen...

Ok, but i have an idea. What about saving the headers size. If i change the size of the header soo it doesnt goes under the vertical scrollbar then the horizontal scrollbar will never show up.

I hope you can understand my terrible inglish...

If that's reasonably possible that sounds like an awesome idea, actually. I didn't even know you could resize the headers 'til just now.

Am I doing something wrong...

I add a directory to the "*browser*" playlist, it successfully adds all of my mp3's. Nothing is shown in the foo_browser Artist window. I click away from the *browser* playlist, then click back...and all my files disappear.

Wtf?

The *browser* playlist is the destination of the tracks (files) you choose clicking into the browser panels.
If you want to choose a playlist (instead of the FB library) as the source FOR the browser panels, you have to add your dir (or files) into another playlist (call it "Browser source", if you like), select all files in it and then use the context menu item "browse". Then, the panels will be populated with only the content of your "browser source" playlist and when you click on items in the panels their content will be sent to the *browser* playlist.

for the fourth time now...foo_browser shows horizontal scroll bars even if there is no need for them...even in an extreme secnario

add only one panel on top for artist
add another panel below it 'playlist view'

the bug appears randomly...just shutdown foobar and start again...keep doing that and you will see the bug...

Please someone confirm this...its really irrittating...cause you have to change the column width very slightly and the horizontal bars are gone....


Thanks

Yes, I know... You've mentioned it four times...

Show some patience... I know what the problem is and it will be fixed in the next release... Next time you feel it necessary to complain about something 4 times, dont... I just might not fix to spite you...

Dont have to save states between sessions, just not to remplace the playlist at the begining.

Is there some way I can get some sort of "Library View" listing all folders in my music "Database". I used this feature in the old "playlist tree" plugin to display / get quick accessto my latest tracks which I store in a seperate folder.

Sorry if this has been up before. I tried searching but couldnt find anything related in the newer threads.

Would it not be possible to just crop the titles when they get to a length that would create scrollbars? Sorry if that's blindingly obvious and already been said, but it ocurred to me just now

Hi,
thanks for this plugin.
I've just downloaded the 1.0.9.
I would like to have a panel per file extension, so I had %_filename_ext% as format for the 5th panel in browser configuration. But I does not do what I would like. How can I do that?
(I would like to have the categories MP3, MPC, OGG, etc)

Furthermore, would it be possible to optimize the refresh when foobar is loaded and the plugin is set to "automatically activate" ? I mean to load the lists of the browser in another thread, so that foobar can be used without waiting for this loading?
