Nice tool thanks a lot. What VS is that too?

The VS is united, which is really nice actually - however, it has some really annoying colours (like makes 3d objects dark?!) and so I hacked that stuff out.

So I did. Back to columns, back to nice and clean and simple looking.

Thanks to everyone for all the bits and pieces 'borrowed' for this one.

The green tick shows that the tags are correct, the album has been burned to cd and is all a-ok.
I have other logos for when an album needs burning, when it has just been downloaded (app logos) or when the album needs tagging.

A couple of features not in the screenshot are how I show ratings and the is_playing display.

Here is the display when the album is various artists or soundtrack:

I had the very same problem and i thought that it would be difficult to make it look as Tool++'s - fortunately it wasn't. You should make the layout tree identical (and I mean it) - I see that you don't have horizontal splitters between all the trackinfo stuff below the playlist. When you put them in place, you'll get eight boxes, one at the top, one at the bottom and six in three rows - in the ones on the left you put in settings "Artist:" and so on. In the right ones you put %aritst% and so on. You have to change padding, font, background and their colors. Then you change the sizes to fit. There is no Menu button in buttons.fbs so you have to add it manually.
In the single_columns view window you put the stuff from config "////TOP" means top box in playlist settings.

Still, there is one thing that isn't working - I can't get the arrows in trackinfomod to show up. I've changed the path 10 times in settings so far and still they just won't appear! Dunno what else to do. Anyway - Tool ++ - you're the best, thanks for the style and for making the effort to make the configs easy to install and for including the VS style too - I took the windows part and used with one of the standard Xoblite styles - it looks perfect now and the foobar is very practical. Thanks again.

Here's how my dekstop looks like right now.

I've made a try with the new single columns ui. It's probably not completely ready.. (maybe i should thank tool+ for 'inspiration' on the design in the group header). Special feature: the CD image in the group header varies depending on the bitrate. A clear and sharp CD for high quality and two worse ones for lower qualities (now i'm only waiting for single columns ui to have group info like album time and avarage bitrate)

Also, I got some reports of a bug I somehow overlooked with the progress bar in my single column code (see here) overrunning its border and going straight out of the panel. I don't actually think it affected me until I changed my columns config, which doesn't make much sense to me.

Here's an item display string which should fix the problem:

CODE

$if($greater($mod(%track%,2),0),$drawrect(,,,,brushcolor-30-30-30 pencolor-null))
$if(%_selected%,$drawrect(,,,,brushcolor-SYSCOL-13 pencolor-null))
$if(%_focused%,$drawrect(,,,,brushcolor-null pencolor-SYSCOL-6))
$if(%_selected%,$textcolor(143-209-223),$textcolor(SYSCOL-9))

$padding(90,0)

$if(%isplaying%,$drawrect(,,,,brushcolor-130-130-130 pencolor-null))
$put(progress,$muldiv(1000,%_time_elapsed_seconds%,%length_seconds%))
$if($greater($get(progress),0),$if(%isplaying%,$drawrect(,,$muldiv($sub(%_width%,180),$get(progress),1000),,brushcolor-159-214-226 pencolor-80-80-80)))
$if(%isplaying%,$textcolor(80-80-80))
$align(center,middle)$if(%isplaying%,$div($get(progress),10)%%)
$if(%isplaying%,$textcolor(0-0-0))

$padding(25,0)

$align(left,middle)$if(%isplaying%,%playback_time% / )%length%$align(right,middle)[%track artist% - ]%title%  $font(,7,bold,)%track%

I guess it's %_width% not taking the current level of padding into account, which would make sense. Is there an easy way to get the current padding?

I just hardcoded a fixed amount of compensation for the time being. If you change the horizontal $padding in the first statement, you'll have to change the $sub(%_width%, n) to be twice that value.

Edit: progress is now accurate to a tenth of a percent instead of a whole percentage point, smoother animation of the bar

You can use a program to reduce them to 85x85.

It's the only free and you can reduce all the images at the same time.

I'm having a bit of problem with configuring my new foobar installation. I've tried installing Tool++ and I've got some of it working but some stuff is still confusing me. Here's an image of what I've got so far.

1. Why won't it show the whole album cover image? I tried readjusting the line height but that does it globally so the songs would all have a 100px line height.
Edit: Got this part fixed by setting group rows to 5

2. How do I get rid of this red/black bar???

3. How do I remove these table borders?

I'd appreciate any help

This is my first run at getting Foobar .9 to run and so far it's been a little different than .8 in terms of setting things up.

You cannot. It is a current limitation of Columns UI. You can try to mimimize their effect by setting your component border style to "none" and changing the color for 3d objects in your windows display settings... or choose a foobar configuration that blends with your existing colors.

Album list is brought up using the 8th button linked to the tabbed panel stack. The green checkmark is an 'activate now playing' button. Ratings 2-5 are linked to the smilies. You'll have to create masstagging scripts for them to work. Set "RATING" = "2" etc. Layout is in the zip

Tackinfo also has a line that pops up when comments and/or lyrics are present. Just remove this line if you don't need it.

also, is there a tut anywhere on how to write code for foobar, im looking for coding imageabs, since those are the only ones i have problems with

Thats the current code that i am working with, and my images are overlapping the title in my group display, what part of the this code controls the size of the image, and the position ?

$imageabs2(88,88,0,0,88,88,0,1,$replace($replace(C:\Documents and Settings\xxxx\My Documents\My Music\Album Art\noart.jpg,',',),?,),)
$imageabs2(88,88,0,0,88,88,0,1,$replace($replace(C:\Documents and Settings\xxxx\My Documents\My Music\Album Art\%artist%.jpg,',',),?,),)

currently, if i change the numbers that are already there, the images disappear for some reason.. any ideas?

you need to restart foobar after making changes. here's my code......

CODE

$imageabs2(122,122,,,,,6,2,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)folder.png,)

in my code the imagesize is 122x122.

x position (horizonatal ) is 6 and y postion (vertical) is 2. i don't need anything else.

of course your group rows multiplied by row height must be big enough to display your image. for example my row height is 25 and group rows is 5 which gives me 125. as my images are 122, i have a little border....

so how can i increase the row hight for artists with just one song, and not increase it for the rest of the rows?

row span is possible only for group row. or i dont understand what you mean

Im not sure what are you trying to achieve with those $replace. try to use relative path with imageabs2 (it works fine for me)

about disappearing images it was discused many times in relevant thread. you have to restart foobar every time you change something in imageabs code because images are resized only once and cached.

for all of you trying to work your way through single playlist component pls write your question in relevant thread and STOP SPAMING THIS. pls the whole comunity will be happy to help. but inside thread which is meant for it. if you asked for 10th times on somenthing that is 10th times explained... well we probably explain it for 11th times or point you to conclusion.

edit: typos

okay from now on ill post in the relative thread, but how do i set up the relative path for the imageabs2?

i have my music set up differently, all my music is in one folder, and i have all my album art in a separate folder. And my art is saved in the format %artist%.jpg

C:\Documents and Settings\xxxx\My Documents\My Music\Album Art\%artist%.jpg

that is where my album art lies, how do i put that in a relative format?

the single columns playlist thread is this way >>> http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=47810

edit: and to answer your question, why are you using $replace? you only use that when the album art is in the same directory as the music files. as yours is not, just hard code the location.
