thanks!

it works quite nice for me, I can create new panels with a hotkey and left click to fill them, but is there a way to create them just like regular panels in ColumnsUI\layout or through scripting display / hide the same or at least an identical dockable panel with its own set of panels inside it?

No problem. I've no idea mate, I'm no expert in foobar I'm afraid ! Maybe someone with more foobar knowledge can help :)

I'm a huge fan of how foobar2k can look, and would like to switch from Mediamonkey. The problem is, I've gotten so used to how MM has my music tagged and when I put my library into foobar it's all disorganized and without much album art, despite being pristine in MM. If I were moving to MM from foobar however, I could easily tag and retrieve art for all of my albums at a time with one press of a button. The problem is, I've yet to find a way to do that with foobar. Is there a way?

tl;dr: Can foobar one-click-tag all my tracks like MediaMonkey or will I have to arduously sort through album-at-a-time retrieving info from wherever?

How do can you configure columns UI to follow the song that is now playing all the time?

you can do it momentarily via view->columns ui, but i liked the original functionality better.

I'm using monolite btw.

To get it working on mine I temporarily switched back to the default user interface, then went to Playback->Cursor Follows Playback. Then just switch back to monolite :)

this should only be used on vista or windows 7 with aero enabled. it relies on using the "system" colours for the playlist*.

(*it's possible to tinker with the colour settings yourself but you're on your own as far as that is concerned. :p)

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear

      By Zeromus2003 · Posted

      I am actually looking forward to this..... I think Dark Ages was way more fun than the tedious expansions for Doom 2 (nu-doom).

    • Windows 11 in 2026: Are you fully on board, or still holding back?

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      Mixed thoughts. I do think MS realized it need's to re-focus on it's core while trying to get people to ultimate pay for AI. My windows machines is my gaming tower. That being said a windows machine I used as a server was just recently converted to no GUI Linux server (and it runs so much better for it's purpse), and general purpose laptop (non-gaming) that could run Windows 11 is using Linux. My work device is a MacBook Pro, and I have a raspberry PI acting as my DNS server, using linux. I honestly have more non-windows devices then devices. I don't consider myself typical user however.  
    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
