dockuk u done with modifying the skin yet?

for his skin, carbon i asked him to please make it so that the right click on the close button closes foobar and left click closes the look

i actually did start working on the first "homework" project you posted, but i got distracted and forgot about it... so far all i've done is add a neat little progress/scroll bar beween the slide-up screen and the song info box.. i'll see if i can design and implement some playback control buttons for it.. then maybe i'll think about tackling one of the intermediate ones

docuk, is there anyway u can help me modify ur skin to include that feature? i really love ur skin but that missing feature is the only complaint i have against it,thx

as part of my everlasting mission to recruit new skin designers, i am providing yet another basic skin graphic in the hope of generating some interest

It currently looks like this:
normal


mouseover


with playlist

i'm loving the patchwork script. ingenious!

and i'm very impressed that you got relative positioning working

[span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%']btw, i did notice some 4-value srcoff's still in the code (playlist gfx section). tut tut![/span]

if there are any tasks you would like to delegate to me, then just ask.

(however, don't be surprised if i start asking you for advice now)

section globals
string image "concept/concept_02.png"
....etc...

LOL - i totally forgot about the purple filled text display when the mouse leaves the skin! guess this makes my graphics kind of useless

eg:


perhaps i can get UpNorth to use part of the graphics as a background instead of filling it with the default purple color. that would solve it.

• right-click anywhere in the progress bar, and the track will scan in 2% increments until it reaches the cursor position
• if you wish, continue pressing the RMB and drag left/right to scan in that direction
• tap the RMB for short burst increments of 2-4%

import tk32_progBar.ski

sprite progBar
bool enabled false
list rect int { 10 60 0 22 }
list rendermap int { render.fill }
list fillcolor int { 150 150 150 150 }

sprite progBox
string include progBar
int width 216
list rendermap int { render.border }
int borderwidth 1
list bordercolor int { 150 150 150 150 }
list scripts string { "tk32_progBar[bar=progBar]" }

sprite progGrip
bool enabled false
list rect int { 10 60 38 22 }
list srcoff int { 12 217 }

list scripts string { "tk32_progBar[bar=progBar grip=progGrip]" }

list scripts string { "playlist[pln = { ple_1, ple_2, ple_3, ple_4 }]" }

@tk32: Nice work!  No reason for me to get into progress bar coding when you do such a good job 

How about you do "the same thing" for the playlist? I already use your playlist script, but if it could be imported and "operated" without touching the code, it would be even better IMHO.
Something like this:

Code: [Select]

list scripts string { "playlist[pln = { ple_1, ple_2, ple_3, ple_4 }]" }

If so, I have some ideas:
-Stop scrolling after the last track in playlist.
-If another tab is selected and it has fewer tracks than the previous, scroll to make the last tracks visible (fill playlist) if outside the range of tracks in the new tab.
-Fix this small bug: If you highlight the track being played and then a different one, the playing track tends to remain hightlighted untill you scroll.
