Hey!

I am using foobar since about a year, started now to cuztomize it.

I added these to the sidepanel: (track info, playlists, covers, also a panel stack),

i only need one more..which is albums list.

I couldnt add that to sidepanel, i made my database and i can check

album list in a new window, but when i want to add it to the sidebar

i can't find it anywhere..any ideas whats wrong?

(using 8.3 with coloumns ui 0.1.2)

Another one:

Is there any ways i can change the seek-bar colors manually? (i should

change the background-so its the same as the foobar color).

I know this depends on windows styles, but this wont change for

me with any styles.

Well, this is not that imporant, because this is fixed in foobar 9 (i installed

that one too), but i need to wait for the plugins..so currently

i'll stay at 8.3

thanks for the ideas

One more question: i want to center the text in the main window title..i tried different modes, but none worked. (char(1)c..but i guess thats for the playlist and file info etc..)..

is there a way to do that in the main window title?

AFAIK, this is possible only when modding the msstyles...

When I try importing the .fcs files I downloaded here as .txt file, I get following error:

ERROR (foo_ui_columns) : please update columns ui in order to use this fcs file

I got the latest version so I don't understand. When I try with a .fcs file downloaded on another site (so not having to open in Notepad and save as .fcs) everything works fine.

What should I do?

Does anyone know how to change the buttons in the 24/2 0.9 Release Candidate? I tried the buttons from musicmusic's page and followed the instructions but all my buttons were blank afterwards, had to revert to the standard buttons. It's been quite a while since I last tried ColumnsUI so I might be missing something obvious.

Also, how do I go about using the buttons people post here as a single .png file?

You can't use the old puttons (where all buttons - only 1 png), in the ver 9.

You must cut these buttons, and change them one by one.

I tried it yesterday, but my buttons were bigger than the original ones,

and i didnt wanted to work more on it..so i left the original buttons,

anyways im still using 8.3

Well, duh. That's part of the problem.. The .txt files I renamed to .fcs won't work in foobar.

They're most likely for the 0.9RC, which requires a newer columns_ui, hence the error message saying you need a newer version..

Actually I think I got it working, 16x16 pixels exactly no more no less.

If anyone wants them let me know. I'd like to convert it to this new format for foobar.

I'm using foobar 0.9 and I want to use Azrael Color schemes, can someone teach me how?! After I imported azrael.fcs, the playlist went all black :huh:

EDIT: Wow, ooomph's foobar is sooo nice O.o

I'm almost positive you need to check the box Enable legacy support for globals in the columnsui preferences.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.

      "77ee94b helium/windows: winsparkle updater (built-in auto-update support on Windows" If that's what I think it is, that is about the only thing that's been missing from this excellent browser. I guess I'll find out the next time I'm on a Windows machine.
