Been working on the cover display of this for the last hour or so, going with the whole "cd cases for albums newer than 1981" thing that i've seen around..

a mod of a mod, grabbed black luna element config from the luna element discussion thread, and have just been tweaking it myself :)

no plans to distribute it or anything, not yet anyway..

Hm just updated to latest PanelsUI and this is what I get--no more text for albums?

It's because of all the grouping checks, you can just strip out all of the code that checks how the playlist is grouped, and it will work fine.

edit, replace all of your group code with the following

this will make the group headers always %album%

$alignabs(10,5,$sub(%_width%,10),100,left,top)
$font($getpvar(userFont),20,bold,240-240-240)

%album%

$alignabs(15,22,$sub(%_width%,5),25,left,top)
$font($getpvar(userFont),$add($getpvar(userFontSize),1),bold,255-128-0)

%album%


	$alignabs($sub(%_width%,$calcwidth(%date%),40),21,$calcwidth(%date%),25,right,top)
	$font($getpvar(userFont),$getpvar(userFontSize),,)[%date%]

	$alignabs($sub(%_width%,$calcwidth(%genre%),40),4,$calcwidth(%genre%),25,right,top)
	[%genre%]

	$if($fileexists($get(coverPath)),
		$imageabs2(27,27,0,0,0,0,$sub(%_width%,33),7,$get(coverPath),NOKEEPASPECT)
		$imageabs2(31,30,0,0,0,0,$sub(%_width%,35),5,$getpvar(Image.Path)border.png,)
	,
		$imageabs2(27,27,0,0,0,0,$sub(%_width%,33),7,$getpvar(Image.Path)nocover.png,)
	)

// If it's the fist line then don't show top line, else show.
$ifequal(%list_index%,1,,
	$drawrect(0,1,%_width%,1,pencolor-0-0-0 brushcolor-null ALPHA-25)
)

// Bottom line.
$drawrect(0,38,%_width%,1,pencolor-0-0-0 brushcolor-null ALPHA-25)

oh, also.. you will have to change the orange (255-128-0) to the blue that the normal LE foobar uses..

Can someone explain to me how to get it to show the numerical list for all the song I have in the playlist. Please e-mail me at [email protected] I really would like this figured out and I'm not good at these things. I want it next to the Tracklist colum thank you and please help me.

It's Royale Vista II with my little modifications:)

Might not have been clear enough, I'm talking about the top titlebar, and not (I think) the "fake" titlebar in the foobar config ;)

The upper one doesn't look very much like the VS in the link you posted ;D

  • foo_uie_queuemanager

is there a way to display the length (time) of the active playlist?

You could use cwb_hooks to do so.

It provides variables that contains the playlist's totals:

# %cwb_activelist% - active playlist name

# %cwb_activelist_count% - number of items in the active list

# %cwb_activelist_duration% - seconds

# %cwb_playinglist% - playing playlist name

# %cwb_playinglist_count% - number of items in the playing list

# %cwb_playinglist_duration% - seconds

You could use cwb_hooks to do so.

It provides variables that contains the playlist's totals:

# %cwb_activelist% - active playlist name

# %cwb_activelist_count% - number of items in the active list

# %cwb_activelist_duration% - seconds

# %cwb_playinglist% - playing playlist name

# %cwb_playinglist_count% - number of items in the playing list

# %cwb_playinglist_duration% - seconds

oooh good call, forgot about cwb_hooks, this was right on the money for what i wanted: $cwb_hms(%cwb_activelist_duration%)

I just got vista and installed foobar2000, can I have the config? it looks amazing.

Yeah, sure :)

Extract the images to \foobar2000\images\ and put the pui file into \foobar2000\PanelsUI\

Hope this works... the image paths are, hum, messed up a bit, don't know why ^^

Plugins needed:

Album List Panel

Playcont (official)

Panels UI (obviously :rolleyes: )

Oh, I also fixed the funky looking text when an item was selected :) see below.

Enjoy!

edit: Perhaps you also have to edit the buttons if they don't show up (right-click on their approximate position). And you have to revert the colors in te album ist panel config (black background - white fonts)!

Mine showed up kinda strange, any idea of what I did wrong? and it won't let me into the preferences to change anything because there's no buttons.

Ok, you have to adjust the album list panel (edit colors, see previous post - deactivate horizontal scrollbar - activate vista theming)

And for the buttons; you can edit them by right clicking --> customise... on their position. Look at my screenshot to see where they are ;)

^Normally, there's a button to access the preferences, but CTRL+P is good as well ;)

Oh, and you should activate grouping in the playlist: Right click on playlist --> Sort / Group by...

edit: And just figured that out myself... everything looks horrible with the standard aero colour scheme! Better use graphite or blue... :)

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
    • Hey what's about the proton vpn firefox extension ? It's not working today
    • On what though? Not Ray Tracing.
    • Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
    • Happy for him, it is one of the first apps I install on a new Windows machine, been using it for years!
