fmxer:

puts something like this in your color code:

two colors backgrounds (row):

//Color text

//Selected Text
|
//BackGround
|$if($stricmp($mod(%_playlist_number%,2),1),DDDDDD,FFFFFF)
//Selected Backgroud
//(...)

color change with directory:

$if($stricmp($lower($left($directory(%_path%),7)),various),0000FF)

(with this code all directory beginning with "various" got red color)

N0thin:

you must use the playlist filter to make the differet columns for singles...

Anybody help me out. My main playlist contains 100s of artists with select songs for each. Doesn't qualify for album mode but I'd like to modify my singles mode. Here's what I'd like to see.

A line across the playlist when the artists changes and to show the artist name only once.

Seems I would need to set a variable (%prevartist%) and compare it to current %artist%, resetting the %prevartist% variable each time.

The code I have bases the line (design) by tracknumber.

// Start & End Line
|||$if($stricmp(%_playlist_number%,1),%_design%)
||$if($stricmp(%_playlist_number%,%_playlist_total%),%_design%)

Any ideas?

dood:

it's impossible actually...

The best way i see: set a tag like %mytracknumber% (1,2,3,..) or %firsttrack% (1 or nothing)... and keep the order in the playlist...

//Top Frame
|$if($stricmp($num(%mytracknumber%,2),01),000000)

//Top Frame
|$if(%firsttrack%,000000)

dood:

Your saying that info can only come from the current line. No memory of what the last line was. I was afraid you'd say that. At least now I can quite wracking my brain I guess. Guess if I was desperate I could change all the tracknumbers :laugh:

I haven't tried myself, but this _may_ work.

Try playing around with global variables.

Exactly, that's come from the IRC foobar channel... If a remember good from one of the developper...

So i don't think that play with globals variables help for this...

But I will be glad to see the opposite...

I have read this topic before. I dont remember seeing it. And I dont relish reading all the pages. Maybe if someone updated the 1st post with useful links it might help.

And I still can't find howto show the album list panel, now I have the plugin.

Hi, Im a newbie to foobar and would be happy if you or anyone else could help me.

I wasn't able to get the album list or the database explorer list on the left side beneath the playlist window on the right like in a lot of screenshots. Also searching through the forum didn't really help me - all ideas mentioned didn't help. I've tried for hours and hours, but couldn't manage it.

Have installed Columns UI 0.1.2 beta 4 and the tabbed panel stack and could manage to show the playlist tree there on the left but not with Album list or Database Explorer the same way.

Have installed Album list and Database Explorer but I only can manage them to run in an extra window on the top of foobar. I can move them freely the everywhere ON TOP of the foobar window as an extra window.

Like here in the next screenshot - I?ve loaded the standard Columns UI.fcs theme. Nothing else more - than the Album list on top - is loaded.

>>> post-89191-1104962526_thumb.jpg

My problem is how to get the Album List or the Database Explorer - not on top, but directly integrated - in the (tabbed) panel stack on the left side the same way like Playlists, Playlist tree, Track info or Volume as an integrated toolbar.

That is possible - integrated, but not on top - like in the next screenshot but I dont know how. How to manage this? Rexy for example could manage it but I still fail ...

I would appreciate very much your help with a simple but very precise instruction how to manage it. Thank you very much in advance.

Congratulations and thank you very very much that helped me a lot as newbie. I was searching since days to find the right answers in the jungle of posts. And your download was really great to keep things working. Your page should really be posted as one of the first helps for start ups by the admins.

To understand: What's the difference between album list and album list panel? How to create the panel? I've loaded the dll somewhere but i did get only the album list and not the panel as well. So I wasn't able to integrate it in foobar directly - only as an on-top window.

Is there any possibility to integrate the Database Explorer like you did it with the Album List? I made a Post >>> #1262 for this today ...

Again THX a lot for your fantastic help

I updated my conf to black for a change because of mood,weather etc...Ok enough :x

My questions are:

1.How to add horizontal lines after each album . F.E. As my config shows ---> a line after 16th track of 1st album, then a line after 12th track of 2nd album and so on.

2. How can I change the colour of status bar's progress bar?

3. I saw some of configs here, that had foobar splitted in a horizontal way. What is the fastest (easiest ) way to do that? Tabbed panels?

It's after 3 am and I'm stuck with those

Thank you for future answers:)

How did you do the album playlist thing? I am trying to set that up myself. I can't find a post or someone who explains how to set up the album playlist.

Download the newest version of columnsui 0.1.2 final

Then you will need the newest version of albumlist and panel stack.

You should then be able to enable the side bar and right click to add the panel stack and ad the album list to it.

For more extensions which work with the newest columnsui look here.

Hey Lav

can you send mail me [email protected] on this columns ui lay-out or link

THX

The best place for configs is here, I don't think it's possible to have different configs for different playlists.

    • Have I understood it correctly that iOS 27 is an Apple Intelligence party only? Thus only for iPhone 15 Pro and higher, and especially even beter for last years iPhone? So basically all iPhone 14 and earlier become obsolete and cannot be used with Apple Intelligence and/or SirI AI?
    • macOS ‘Golden Gate' unveiled with standalone Siri app, performance improvements and more by Hamid Ganji After months of rumors about Apple’s latest software updates, the company unveiled macOS 27 at the 2026 Worldwide Developers Conference. macOS 27 isn’t a major departure from the previous version; instead, it focuses on refining the user experience and fixing some of the annoying bugs users have reported over the past year. The new macOS 27 is named Golden Gate. When it comes to the list of new features, you should not expect a long one, as Apple has followed the Snow Leopard playbook from 2009 with macOS 27. First, the Liquid Glass interface isn’t gone; it's been updated to improve readability. It gets a new slider in settings to adjust Liquid Glass, letting you go from ultra-clear to fully tinted with ease. App icons also get an additional layer of Liquid Glass to look sharper. Smoother system animations, faster content loading, and a similar corner radius for windows are other improvements for macOS 27. With iOS 27, Apple released a standalone Siri app for iPhone users, and the app is also coming to Macs with the latest update. The all-new Siri AI app features a chatbot-style interface and aims to compete with Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT. It supports both text and voice prompts and provides users with access to previous conversations for reference. The Siri app can also perform a wide range of tasks, including on-device search, image generation, information summarization, and more. Users can also rely on Siri for personal context. Siri is integrated with various apps, allowing users to complete tasks with a single prompt. With the screen awareness capability, you can ask Siri about locations and images on your screen. Which devices won’t get macOS 27? If you’re still using an Intel-powered Mac, we have bad news for you. macOS 27 is only compatible with Apple Silicon chips and drops support for Intel-based Macs. Here’s a list of devices that won’t be compatible with macOS 27: Mac Pro (2019) 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) 27-inch iMac (2020) 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020) When can you get macOS 27? Apple developers can now access the first beta of macOS 27. However, the first public beta is expected to be released sometime next month. Users will have to wait until this fall for the stable version of macOS 27.
    • Who wants to pay higher prices for the same 6+ year hardware in a new shell? This is hardware where things change fast and improve continuously. They could update w/ quicker/more efficient compute, faster storage, new controllers with new features (not a shell/design update), which are all realistic possibilities. They've done mid-generation console updates, but all we've had for Series X/S are not just different configuration updates (storage / digital versions / console aesthetics). Instead they've prioritized acquisitions, increasing prices, and have lost quite bit of their fan base because of lack of vision.
