Works perfectly now for lyrics existing on the disk and not yet associed. They become associed, works like a charm. Couldnt test the rest from here at work. Thanks a lot you gave life back to this plugin

Do you think it would be possible to overlay an image on the panel ?
Using it on panels UI and trying to make a nice fade effect...
As you can see on the image below :



Thanks

Very nice work!

I'm after a semi-transparent background over a picture. I tried placing an empty title display box behind the lyrics panel, containing a $drawrect with pen and brush colours of 0-0-0 and alpha-128. It worked, except lyrics panel won't clear itself on a track change, leaving text overlaying text.

Any chance of fixing this or implementing semi-transparent backdrops in the panel itself?

Can you post your code here?
I'm sorry I cannot understand you because my english is poor enough .
EDIT: I've just put a semi-transparent background using $drawrect and put %title% in before $panel Lyric Show Panel, it seems that everyting work well. the %title% changs as soon as track does.

Is the scroller shown when this is added as panel in PanelsUI ?

scrolling works well in PanelsUI.
scrollbar is not considered in the near future just because now I have little experience on programming.

Downloaded the new version, but didn't get the scrolling to work...
The "enable scroll" is checked.

Maybe this is the key:
there's timestamped lyric and plain-text lyric.
if you got plain-text lyric, this will happen, and you can only scroll it with Mouse Scrolling.

The timestamped lyrics work fine, scrolling in the time it is supposed to, and no need for manual scrolling on them.

What I want is to be able to scroll up and down with the mouse on the plain-text lyrics, and it doesn't work....

I don't know, but I guess from my bad english that it's supposed to work what I am trying to do?

Ahh, so that's no change on that from the earlier version then... I thought that was one new function, nevermind my previous post then.

Still would be awesome if it could be implented....

Never mind. Your 'edit' comment actually sorted my problem out for me. Thanks.

Yes, I just notice it.
I'll go and fix it
Thanks.
