[terrestrial]

This is a modified foo_uie_trackinfo which uses a differet display function, which allows for different fonts / alignment.

Example screenshot:



and the code from the example:

CODE

$if(%_trackinfo_notrack%,
Stopped,

$align(left,top)
$font(forte,15,shadow,255-255-255)%title%$char(10)
$font(,12,,64-0-0)%album% ['['%date%']']$char(10)
$rgb(0,64,0)%artist%$char(10)
$rgb(64,0,0)%composer%test$char(10)

$align(right,bottom)
$font(Verdana,10,,0-0-0)%__codec%@%__bitrate%$char(10)
[%playback_time% / ]%length%

$align(left,bottom)
$font(Wingdings 2,13,,)
$if(%rating%,
$select(%rating%,
$rgb(155,0,0)ê,
êê,
êêê,
êêêê,
$rgb(0,155,0)êêêêê),
$rgb(155,155,155)ê)

I received this failure notice from FB2K_v0.9.3b4:

Failed to load DLL: foo_uie_trackinfo_mod.dll
Reason: This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

The last version (foo_uie_trackinfo_v0.8) has no problems loading. Was this new mod version created differently? Generally, I get this failure notice due to not having the proper library files. If so, can you let me know which library files are needed? Thank you.

it needs the C runtime library for vs .net 2005 (msvcr80.dll I think). Do you have this file in your system?

--------

The font sizes used to be pixel sizes, but now are point sizes. To convert between them you can use this formula: pixels = points*dpi/72 (where dpi is normally 92). Point size seems to be consistent with Columns UI and everything else, at least to me. Are you sure you have the latest version?

--------

The underline / strikeout have been added, and the font / color issues have been fixed. There may still be some glitches, and if so, please let me know
