What is it for? The wiki is not too clear.

$eval() function to evaluate math (eg $eval(6+3*2) = 12). Valid operators are + - / * @(modulus) {}(instead of parenthesis)
From changelog.
$eval is very nice, shortening the code and making it more readable

Here's an example:
$if(%_selected%,$drawrect(0,0,0,0,brushcolor-30-30-30 pencolor-60-60-60)
Also, in your $align() statement, the second parameter has to be top, middle, or bottom. Not center as in your example.
BUG: Placing a seekbar toolbar on top of a Track Display panel appears to suffer from the same flickering refresh problems that the spectrum analyser once did. Spectrum analyser now works well, is anyone else noticing the flickering on the seekbar?

Actually, I'm still getting the flickering for the spectrum analyser on top of the track display.
What did you do to remedy this?
I have the lated foo_ui_panels
Since TIM is no longer supported seperately, any chance ui panels supports a vertical scollbar?
If foobar is still open and I reboot or close it from the taskbar, the next time I open it it will show up only in the taskbar. I close it and open it again and it will show up resized to the original state of the plugin.
Foobar seems to crash about 80-90% of the time when I try to open the Panels UI configuration dialog. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? If I keep trying it eventually opens but I gotta go cleanup all the failure.txt files from my foobar directory and it's a bit annoying.
^I've only had problems with stability and panels_ui when trying to use the playlist_tree component.
Now I have a question. Is it possible to use a $select in the SCPL 'Group by' code and change settings there with a $getpvar? It doesn't seem to be working for me at least. :/

Seeing the amazing potential of this plugin i was wondering if there would be a way to implement the possiblity to change a Pvar by a keyboard shortcut.
Thanks for this amazing plugin

I got the same problem as i posted.
Hope This can be solved in the future version.
couple things. when stopped not playing the top track info doesnt show is there a way for me to keep it so the top track info is always displayed?. and also where i have the time its setup centered like
artist
title
-time/length <- what would i put for code to keep it still centered but have a progbar for just pure looks ? so it went like - time remain [ prog bar ] length

djtoodles: according to the code you pasted, you do not have a top track info panel, you have instead coded your track info code directly into the master panels ui layout. You have placed your track information inside this if statement:
$if(%_trackinfo_notrack%,
$glass(0,0,0,30)
,
// track information code here //
)
That is explicitly telling foobar only to show the track information when %_trackinfo_notrack% is false, or in other words when a track is playing. If you want that data to be displayed at all times then take it outside of that if statement.

Bug Report.
* Correct foobar icon isn't displayed when pressing alt+tab.
* When foobar is minimized and there is a trackchange the tite formating in the taskbar isn't updated. It will display the same track until foobar is restored from minimized state.
* Using $drawrect pencolor-null brushcolor-[color] with the height set to 1 result in the $drawrect beeing 2px. While if I use pencolor insetad and bruchcolor-null the height is correct (1px).
* In the SCPL settings the '(' and ')' are not highlited blue when the cursor is next to them as in the other configuration windows.
* Buttons that shouldn't be are highlighted blue (default) in the configuration windows. (color of highlight depends on the theme in use)
* Foobar window sometimes start offscreen and resized to the smallest possible size. Rightclicking the taskbar and more it with arrow keys bring it back on screen. This seem to happen if I app/remove components.
* When stretching an image the last pixels to the right looks weird when it's stretched very far. See image below. (Yellow line) (I pasted the left part which looks correct up the the right.)
Feature Request.
* Currently one can use different images for Inactive and when Hovering (mouseover) a $button. Would be cool if one could use a third image for when the $button is pressed (mousedown).
* I also agree with carmenm (a few posts above). Pvar by a keyboard shortcut, would be very nice.

Another small bug, nothing major. If '%' (literally display percent sign) is used in the Configuration dialog code, the syntax highlighting is thrown completely off as it appears to treat the % as the beginning of a variable despite being enclosed in ticks for literal display. If changed to $char(37) the highlighting is restored to what is normally expected.
I've tried PanelsUI and found that album art inside playlist is easily ruined if one of the tracks is missing. Like, if you don't have the first few tracks album art will have its top part cut (corresponding to the rows for tracks that 'should' be there).
I gather that there have been a limitation of that sort in ColumsUI (that is, it cannot look ahead and see how much tracks you have, only blindly assigning 1 row for 1 track, so missing tracks = missing rows for anything it tries to display alogside the tracklist).
So, is that problem still not solved?

use %totaltrack% and an if statement eg if %totaltracks% greater than 4 show album art
%_itemcount% is more reliable than %totaltracks%

The safest way to do this (and to get help via copy and paste into this forum) is to use $char() after a font statement that contains the referenced $char().
Safest way to backup a config is still to copy and paste code to a text file. That's how I do it just to be sure nothing gets blown away. There was a change to how PanelsUI stores the layout from v0.4 to v0.5+, so copy and paste is a GREAT idea.

at unicode Support. I found out some $char seem to work but not everything. I thought it was because terrestrial said that he added no unicode support.
Thanks for your answer.For me it is horrible to loose all the code and the work behind it.
So know I will copy and paste

Feature request: Window title adjustments. Currently, it's set to either follow cursor or follow playback, but that's a little annoying for me.
Occasionally, when shutting down Windows Vista with foobar open, panels_UI seems to create a default.pui and will try to load that on startup. However, when it does this, foobar won't actually open. It will be running in task manager but it will be nowhere to be found on the desktop or system tray.
This only seems to happen on my Vista box at work. It may have something to do with Vista, but it may also have something to do with me running foobar on my second monitor. Maybe it isn't related to either of those. Anyhow, here is the default.pui file it is creating in case it helps in the diagnosis:
default.pui

I'm sure you know better than I about actual unicode support. However I've never had a problem with $char() not working as long as the $char() I was referencing actually existed in the font I was using.
To be safe, set a font with $font() then use $char(). Check the Windows Character Map to be sure what you want to use exists in the specified font and the unicode number is correct.
I have a request, I have found that as I build up the themes available for my configuration the panels code begins to get cluttered with the likes of
"if theme 1... set these variables (30 or so)
if theme 2... set another 30
..."
This makes managing and customising the code difficult.
I would love to be able to say, "if theme 1 load variables from "theme1.txt" which is just a text file formatted for panelsUI and imported directly in. Then in the actual code all I would need it one $select function to switch between all the themes - nicely separating variables and design.

That's a nice idea. I think future support will also be added to call different .pui files from buttons. That will also be a nice one-click layout change. Easy to keep code separated as well.

to further awesomeness this idea, the textfiles could become objects:
example:
CODE
$getpvar(layoutShakey.fontsize)
where setting fontsize is stored in a textfile named layoutShakey
how do I get a good looking carriage return with this component?
$crlf() adds an ugly block.

Thanks for the config you posted. But, I don't understand how to use it. You use pvars to $put() into other variables. I don't understand the rationale for this, or how to initialize the pvars in the first place, since, according to the wiki pvars can only be set in button. Thanks.

If you want to center
- horizontally: the left position of your image should be
CODE
$div($sub(%_width%,your_image_width),2)
- vertically: the top position of your image should be
CODE
$div($sub(%_height%,your_image_height),2)
As far as I remember, it can be added in any section (background, per track or per second)
I have a little problem with PVAR and i was wondering if it came from my code. I have a button in my panelUI config which aim is to change my SCPL layout:
$button2($sub(%_width%,90),$sub(%_height%,30),0,0,26,22,'$imageabs2(,,0,44,26,22,0,0,'images/ayofe/ViewButtons.tiff',)','$imageabs2(,,0,44,26,22,0,0,'images/ayofe/ViewButtons.tiff',)',PVAR:SET:scp.display.mode:0,)
I put a test in my group display in SCP to see this change:
$select($add($getpvar(scp.display.mode),1),!noheader,%album%,%album%)
My problem is that SCP doesnt see the change.
It works between Track Display and PanelUI but not in this case.
Does anyone managed to make something like that work?

$select($add($getpvar(scp.display.mode),1),!noheader,%album%,%album%)
My problem is that SCP doesnt see the change.
It works between Track Display and PanelUI but not in this case.
Does anyone managed to make something like that work?
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet but I have had a lot of success making panels work on glass by setting their background to $rgb(0,0,0). I even made a track display panel work by using the following line:
$drawrect(0,0,0,0,brushcolor-0-0-0)
It's not perfect though, foreground colors get distorted when used on glass but it sure makes for some interesting effects.

I've tried PanelsUI and found that album art inside playlist is easily ruined if one of the tracks is missing. Like, if you don't have the first few tracks album art will have its top part cut (corresponding to the rows for tracks that 'should' be there).
I gather that there have been a limitation of that sort in ColumsUI (that is, it cannot look ahead and see how much tracks you have, only blindly assigning 1 row for 1 track, so missing tracks = missing rows for anything it tries to display alogside the tracklist).
So, is that problem still not solved?
use %totaltrack% and an if statement eg if %totaltracks% greater than 4 show album art

No, you've probably misunderstood me. It is not short tracklists that cause the problem, it is the fragmented ones that do. Missing tracks - missing image parts.

Then use %_itemindex% instead of %tracknumber%

I have a little problem with PVAR and i was wondering if it came from my code. I have a button in my panelUI config which aim is to change my SCPL layout:
$button2($sub(%_width%,90),$sub(%_height%,30),0,0,26,22,'$imageabs2(,,0,44,26,22,0,0,'images/ayofe/ViewButtons.tiff',)','$imageabs2(,,0,44,26,22,0,0,'images/ayofe/ViewButtons.tiff',)',PVAR:SET:scp.display.mode:0,)
I put a test in my group display in SCP to see this change:
$select($add($getpvar(scp.display.mode),1),!noheader,%album%,%album%)

I tried a while ago to do the same thing but it doesn't work.

How can you then ensure that the art shows at the start of the group? EDIT: A tutorial on how to do this would be nice on fooblog.
@jonpb: Please post Config questions in the correct place or in the comments on the blog.
I use $setpvar to set the PVAR. I put these into $puts commands as it offered a quick way of moving variables out of one panel and into another and helped me create a global configuration section.

how do I get a good looking carriage return with this component?
$crlf() adds an ugly block.
I think $char(10) should work for you.
@carmenm
The SCPL layout is only drawn once when foobar is opened, or for new tracks when they are added (I know this is true for the 'Group Header' anyway). The only way to redraw this, that I've found, is to restart foobar. So changing by button at this point I don't think will work.
EDIT: or SCPL is not aware of PVAR changes yet. Perhaps this has only been implemented between Panels main config and Track Display?
@Yotsuya
I believe Terrestrial mentioned a while back, that on top of glass colors equate to transparency. Black is transparent and white is opaque. Anything else is going to be some strange looking partially transparent color. That's why it was mentioned to use black as background and white as foreground for the spectrum analyser, for example.
I have found that scrolling down or up redraws the SCPL correctly after I have changed a PVAR (e.g. in my config changing album art from left to right)
Is there a way to toggle between "Now Playing" and "Follow Cursor" other than the right-click menu? Either a button command or a pvar, perhaps?
Terrestrial, thanks for this plugin so far - I can see some really interesting things happening with this one.

How the hell do i make an image dynamic so itll stay on the center no matter how i resize the window? i can do this on panels, but i cant figure out how to make an image dynamic :S
If you want to center
- horizontally: the left position of your image should be
CODE
$div($sub(%_width%,your_image_width),2)
- vertically: the top position of your image should be
CODE
$div($sub(%_height%,your_image_height),2)
As far as I remember, it can be added in any section (background, per track or per second)
Sadly, i dont get it
Could you make an example?
Basically, you want the middle of your image in the middle of the panel. e.g. For a 200 pixel picture on a 1024x pixel panel you want the 100 pixel mark to be at 512 pixels across. We can only define the starting point from the left edge of the image, which is of course 100 pixels further left. So we choose to set the image corner at 412 pixels across.
Now the maths:
panel width - image width: 1024-200 = 824
divide this by 2: 824 / 2 = 412
Now the maths:
panel width - image width: 1024-200 = 824
divide this by 2: 824 / 2 = 412
