can the 'playlist.exe' button be modified to use the eject function in winamp? I don't quite understand why whenever i find winamp controls for anything the eject button is left out. Currently right now when i hit that playlist button all it does is bring my winamp to the front, it doesnt even open the playlist.

Damned if I know. :laugh:

I just included the controls because people were asking for them; I don't know how they work, and I don't remember where I got them. All I did was Reshack the programs to include the Ashen icons rather than the default ones. As for the Playlist program not even bringing up the playlist, I'm guessing that it's an incompatibilty with WA5, but that's just speculation on my part. I've looked online for an answer to why the Playlist thing doesn't work (you're not the first who's asked this), and I couldn't even find a website for the original controls.

I'm sure that it's possible to do what you're asking, but I have NO idea how to do it, or where to even begin.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help!

I guess youre pointing out that when an option is inactive the disabled text looks seemingly invisible?

I can see WHY it could be a problem, but perhaps it was designed to be like that?

Otherwise, edit it yourself, open up the XML for the scheme in something like dreamweaver or wordpad, and ask it to find the colour value for the disabled text (as in search for something like 

STATE Name="Disabled"

and the ncheck under it to see if it has "color" or "TextColor" property, and remember that color value).

Then, choose to replace the said color value with a new one (make it a darker colour, say, take 30 off each RGB value) and choose to "replace all".

Assuming the colour isnt *quite* the same as the background colour, it will change the colour to a readable one. Otherwise you'll have to do it all manually.

it will be fixed in the update, i didnt think it was a huge enough problem to require an emergency update. i'm busy. leave me alone........kiiiidding.... xoxoxox

in all seriousness, i am busy right now, i *may* release giga's mod seperately, if the ashen update takes too long..... giga and i are working on something new, and the changes made in the ashen mod were inspired by that theme... so look forward to that.

    • RapidRAW 1.5.7

      By Copernic · Posted

      RapidRAW 1.5.7 by Razvan Serea RapidRAW is a beautiful, non-destructive, GPU‑accelerated RAW image editor designed for speed and simplicity. It uses a lightweight (~30 MB), efficient code base built with Rust, React and Tauri. Ideal for Lightroom workflows, it offers rich editing tools—exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites/blacks, tone curves, HSL mixer, dehaze, vignetting, film grain, sharpening, clarity and noise reduction—processed in real-time on the GPU. Features include intuitive masking (brush, linear, radial, AI-powered subject and foreground detection), generative edit layers (via ComfyUI), 32‑bit precision, and full RAW format support through rawler. RapidRAW also provides library management (folder navigation, ratings, metadata, EXIF viewer), batch operations, export presets (JPEG/PNG/TIFF), sidecar editing (.rrdata), undo/redo history, customizable UI themes, smooth animations, resizable panels, and preset copy/paste. A modern high-performance Lightroom alternative with polished UX and creative tools, RapidRAW brings powerful photo editing to photographers seeking speed, responsive GPU feedback, and streamlined workflows. RapidRAW v1.5.7 release notes: This update serves as a direct follow-up to the core architectural migration introduced in v1.5.6. While the transition to a more modular state management system marked a significant step forward for RapidRAW's stability and long-term maintainability, it also introduced several edge cases and regressions within the library and editing workflows. This release focuses on addressing those issues, with a particular emphasis on a complete overhaul of library performance to ensure smooth and responsive browsing following the refactoring. It also resolves inconsistencies in the copy-and-paste workflow and expands RapidRAW's accessibility by adding support for eight additional languages.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
