As you surely know, in 0.8.3 we've been using a tweak somebody made on your plugin that let us have 2 different instances of it: would you consider doing it yourself directly and giving the 2 (or more) different versions different names in the Preferences too, please?

Thanks

I have a question. This isn't specifically a problem with trackinfo, but since it does affect it i'll ask here:

Why do all the panels use different edge styles?

I mean, most panels have an option to select between 'grey', 'sunken', and 'no edge', which is great, but they never look the same between panels. Look here:



The top panel (trackinfo) and the bottom panel (albumlist) are both using the 'sunken' edge style, but they don't look the same at all. I think that albumlist is actually doing it correctly according to the visual style, but i don't know (or really even care -- i just wish they'd all do it the same way, even if it's wrong).

Like i said, this isn't a problem specifically with trackinfo, it actually seems to affect most panels. But do you know why that inconsistency comes up?

I'm pretty sure this was requested when it was out for 0.8, but could you implement an option to truncate with '...' instead of wrapping lines?

you can do it yourself with code, but it will only work correctly with a fixed-width font.

$ifgreater($len(%album%),40,$left(%album%,40)...,%album%)

or something like that

It looks like you have chosen grey in trackinfo panel.. but I always use none as edge style, or grey sometimes, it sooks more clean to me..

This is proabably because their developers have different ideas of what 'sunken' style means. There are a few window styles and combinations of window styles that have a sunken look, the top panel in that screenshot looks like WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, while the bottom one doesn't even look sunken, its just a grey border.

To me sunken is this one:
Quote
WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE
    Specifies that a window has a border with a sunken edge.


The trackinfo panel is probably a custom control (?). In that case it won't use themed edges (by default), so it will look different to common control edges, such as the playlist switcher.

Am I being blind or is there an option to stop the track information changing when I click on a different song to the one that s playing?

That's bogus, i figured everybody would just know which control is the correct one to use. :/

Requesting that trackinfo uses WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE for the sunken style, then, in any case. :please:

Bogus? What an ingrate! G-Lite just took over this plugin, and was nice enough to get a version together for v.0.9 this week. Be thankful that we have a working version to use, and give it a little time to get refined. Whether this plugin has a correct sunken edge border is the least of my worries.

To G-Lite: This fix seems to be so critical to some, that if you fix the border, then maybe soon we will have World peace. How's that for pressure? ;-)

Jesus Christ, why don't you act like i freaked out about it or something.


I never blamed G-Lite for using the incorrect edge style, i only asked that he (or whoever is going to be in charge of the plug-in from now on) fix it.

Also i was saying 'bogus' to the notion that people could have their own personal idea of what sunken edges are when there is evidently a pre-defined common control for it.

I didn't accuse you of freaking out. I was just pointing out that people need to have some patience with developers getting their plugins released and/or refined. And now with your response, we are in total agreement.
