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.

    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.
    • Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.
    • That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
    • I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
