doesnt work. after i set it to empty, right away half of the cover disappears by itself, and then as i remove tracks, more and more of the cover disappears.

The code shows a part of the cover in each song, using the songs 1 to 4.
You need to have 4 songs and the songs must be tagged in 1, 2, 3 and 4 in the tracknumber.
If you delete de track 2, then tag the track 5 (or 6, or 10) to 2.

ok i understand what youre code does, but what im trying to get the code to do is show the whoel cover no matter how many tracks i have in my playlist, so if i have only 1 file in my playlist, i want it to show the whole cover image. what you are telling me to do isnt what i want it to do.

so in other words i need code to just display the whole cover image regardless of how many tracks there are. whether it be 1 track or 100 tracks.

Hopefully a footer feature could be added to the single column playlist component which would allow something like this.

how is it not possible? didnt you set it up to only display the image with the first 4 songs? couldnt the code be updated to make the cover fully visible at all times?

about WMP11, ive never used it, so im not sure what you are talking about..

The only way it would be possible is if you display the album cover in the heading.

If you want it to display in the tracklisting only, you either need really small album cover picture (shrink it down, which I believe is possible even without using another program to do so) or make the height of each track large so a decent (meaning legiable) album cover can be displayed (which is probably not even an agreeable way to do it).

Just simply do a decent sized heading for each album listing, and display the album cover in there.

The problem is how do you display an album cover that is at least 3 songs height wise when there is only 2 or 1 song in the album (which is freaking extremely rare to begin with).

Oh,and post screen shots of WMP11 doing it. I have never used WMP11, so I can only imagine what you are saying.

Terrestrial did say he was going to attempt to add a function to create blank rows for the next version, so what you want could be possible by the next version.

Yes I stole the wrapping text idea.

I think a minimum group size function would be pretty cool.

It might mess up the row formatting for things that use tracknumber as the new rows would have no ID3 data to reference ;/ (alternating rows).

It should be ok because you can use %_itemindex% or %list_index% instead of %tracknumber%

how can i get album art to appear in between albums like this??
does it have to be in single column mode, or can I do it in the normal mode??
I have been looking through this thread, but there are 155 pages to sort through. I found that people start adding album art in this manner somewhere around page 110, but I didnt have time to finish reading since I had to go to werk.

Hi,

im very new to foobar customisation. I tried tool++'s setup, but decided to cut it down. however i cant seem to be able to resize the top and bottom trackinfo mod
i want to resize them so my playlist takes most of the screen instead of them sharing the same size
my current setup looks like this:

can anyone help?

I managed to solve it. i was dumb enough to set boarder to none so i couldnt see the resizer. lol

this thread is awsome!

Yeah, I'd be 100% interested in having this setup. And what I'd really like is on the l/h sidebar to have my physical directory of music, not sorted by artist but sorted by the directory structure so that albums with various artists are preserved in their normal order. Is this possible?

I'll decide whether or not to share it once it's finished. I still have some things to do.

For example, at the moment the refresh button on the far right doesn't rescan my database, which is what I'd like it to do. Is there a way I can make it do that?

I played around a little with components etc. It is somewhat difficult to discover how everything works. This is the result: http://gwx.tomaatnet.nl/foobar.png
