(don't know if i rather should open a new thread...)

Is it possible to implement displaying the total size of a selection in the status bar?
... the total lenght already shows up, so this should be quite easy (?)

this would be very handy, if you want to make a playlist for your portable player. (-> you wouldn't have to open the 'properties'dialog every 20 seconds )

I don't have anymore resizing problems here (but I didn't test it much)

hi! Just fixed ui column and tried various ui's, But I never get the album-picture on them, and never the info-box that som ui have either.. What's wrong?

daizoe:

Are you adding the albumart and trackinfo components to foobar? Are you then adding them to your ColumnsUI layout?

I just upgraded to 0.1.3 beta 1v5 and now my progress slider doesn't show a time tooltip when being moved like it did before. Is this a bug?

can anyone post their code for playlist switcher. i once saw one that added number of the songs that were in the playlist, had some other things too, but i can't find it on forum.

Mine
It only adds total count of playlist if it's active you can change it by removing the last if statement and keeping %size%. You may also be interested in this.

yes, thuan, thank you very much

Hello. Here's the problem. In the playlist view, in my album column, when album name is too long, longer then the column width, you get name...., because i hate that dots, and not being able to see the whole album name, i wrote code that cuts the album name on two parts, if %album% is longer than 45 characters, and puts the first part (to the last ' ' from first 45 chars of %album%) besides the first song on the album, and the second part (if it exists) besides the second song, all in the album column, ofcourse. Now, the problem is that it's hard to determine how long the title is, because e.g. 45 dots aren't long as 45 letters. So, sometimes album name doesn't need to be cut in two, although it has over 45 chars, and sometimes it does. So i would be very grateful if someone had any ideas how to, somehow, determine when album name is too long, and when it's not. I hope it's understudable where the problem is, here's the code, maybe it will help if it isn't.

I found a little bug, maybe not a bug but at least a little bit annoying. When adding a button: "add to playback queue" there is a problem with %isplaying%

I use this for a index-column:


When using the rightclick "add to playback queue" menu (pressing next to play this of course), it jumps correctly in the "$if($or(%isplaying%,%ispaused%)" condition, but not when using the button!

anything new in regards to removing those annoying borders???

Buttons:

I'd like to be able to select how a button reacts to a click. I don't want the buttons to move when I select 'No edges' Appearance.

Hi,

I upgraded to foobar2k v0.9.4 and installed Columns UI v0.1.3 beta 1v5. So far so good, but when I extracted the Album List Panel v0.2.1 beta 4 and the Album Art Panel v0.2.4.1 they didn't appear. I right-click and go to Toolbars but none of the panels is there.

What is the problem? Can I fix it?

It's a funny thing but today browsing the net i've found Columns UI 0.1.3 beta 1v6 TEST,as i understand it's unreleased.

disperse:
File> Preferences> Display> Columns UI> "Layout" Tab

You need to add the panels to your layout, for more information adding panels see here.

Russell777:
See this post. It was an unofficial compile to solve some vista compatibility issues.

Thanks a lot!

Just wanted to re-affirm, v6 TEST works fine with 0.9.4 on vista 5728, No crashes anymore.

I'm having problems with inline editing. The navigation doesn't seem to work. Tab behaves like enter and saves but doesn't move to the next field; instead it exits edit mode. Tab + Ctrl moves to the next field, not the preceeding (although Tab + Shift works).

Update to v6 above. The shortcut for preceeding is meant to be SHIFT-TAB, that one is an error in the documentation.

nice test version 6 glad to see you back on the forums musimusic does that mean we should be expecting more columns ui updates soon?

fingers crossed

Feature request: (checkbox) ability to hide a scrollbar in a playlist view

bump

Not really... maybe when I buy a new laptop (old one broke). But choice in Core 2 Duo / Turion X2 laptops, 14/15" WSXGA(+) screen with reasonable spec (and price) is poor So, don't know when I'll get a new laptop either.

dang thats bad news musicmusic - hope you were able to keep all your work
yeah the new duo core laptops are very attractive - I have even been tempted to get an apple laptop and install xp onto it

musicmusic, If you fix the borders a fund will be started. I can sense it

What's the difference between Windows and UI behaviour for the inline metafield editing?

Does inline editing save changes to the tags or the library? If F2K crashes, I seem to loose any edits I've made. Is there a way to force this data to be written to the tags? I have 2 portable drives that I take to work with me that I want to keep in sync with my "primary" files".

Thanks.

As I understand it, the library and your tags are always one and the same in 0.9.x. If your changes don't show up after a crash, what happens if you tell it to reload from file tags?

Good question. I'll check that as soon as I get home. Does rescanning the library do this as well? Thanks.

Yes this worked. Thanks!

Looking at different designs, it seems that it's impossible to make the splitters invisible But it seems that the color can be changed - Where?

Will this be fixed by a parameter in the future?

Edit: Another issue; i thought "Locked" means that a panel/splitter cannot be moved. For me this seems to have no effect at all.

Also a field to adjust the actual panel height and width would be nice

Locked means the panel size will not be change when you resize the whole player window.

Ah But would it still not be a nice feature if a panel could be *really* locked?

Actually, this is also a mystery to me. Can someone shed some light on this?

The different is with Windows behavior when you've selected a bunch of files you can press on one of them to edit the tag field but with ColumnUI behavior it will only select the file you press on.

I have a small request
Can we have the album list panel compile with the latest foobar SDK? I would like to use album list panel in Vista
Thanks for your help musicmusic

I was wondering if there was a way to hide a panel with a command. That way i could hide or show my panel with a button.

I am having trouble getting the column dll file to work with foobar 2000 version 0.9.4.1 and I get the error message that foo_ui_columns.dll requires a dependency or is made for another version of foobar 2000. Any ideas?

I'd like a feature like that too, so I could hide/show a panel by pressing a button..

Sign me up for this one too

I'm having a problem with Columns UI right now. It displays the MP3 as CBR on the status bar even though the song is VBR. I only had problems with this when I changed from 0.9.3 to 0.9.4. Again I'm only having problems with the status bar. Anyway to fix this?

This has nothing to do with columnUI, but because from foobar 0.9.4 field %extra_info% is deprecated. Please change your code to check MP3 type to this or some things you like.

Hi all,



In this example you see foobar2000 and Mirc. With mirc when I turn transparancy on you just see my background. But when I turn transparancy on in Columns UI it still shows a blueisch color from my background. Is there a way to turn the background off so it becomes like mirc?

Thanks in advance

Set background color in columns to white? You can't set opacity without having a color, that would be completely transparant. I assume you have a blue background in your columns, which gives you the blue scent.

I have a feature request for foo_uie_albumlist component:

Make it possible to configure mouse button actions to send entries to a specific playlist (not autosend, new or current one). For example, I want to view album list entries in "library view" playlist but add them to "default".

Thanks in advance.

Check out foo_utils (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....c=18276&hl=) and see if that does what you need. It adds a few items similar to your request to the playlist context menu (edit: er, and the track context menu... it's called "Edit Other").

Thanks, Matt. It would be what I need if I could choose one of the foo_utils menu entries in the Album List panel configuration ("double-click action" and "middle-click action" options).

i have columns ui and the navigator suite. i was wondering if there was a way to lock the column, so if accidently click on track # or title & length, it won't resort your playlist. i have a few realli long playlists, and when im switching between tabs (playlists) i sometimes hit a column and it messes up the playlist

thanks for any help

Maybe you should simply disable 'sorting using column titles'? Look in Preferences -> Display -> Columns UI -> Playlist view -> General.

thanks for the help!

Is it me or have the keyboard shortcuts for moving playlists up/down the column playlist disappeared? I've searched every possible permutation I can think of for move, playlist, etc., and nothing's showing. It used to be [main] > playlist > move back/forward.
