Then you don't have the latest version of columns ui. Look on page 31 or 32 for a link.

Thank you. Works nicely.

Glad to help :)

These configs look awesome!!

Here is my current setup

Matches my theme quite nicely :p

I have a question though, is it possible to alternate the bg color by artist? Something like this (photoshopped to show concept)? I would like to display my music that way if possible...

[_R2D2]

Cream: yes..it is possible, for example:

$if($stricmp(%artist%,your favorite artist),*color code, don't remember the syntax*)

However, there are more advanced ways of doing this, like:

$if($or($stricmp(%artist%,your favorite artist),$stricmp(%artist%,your favorite artist2)),$stricmp(%artist%,your favorite artist3),*color code, don't remember the syntax*)

Think you change bg color with $rgb(something....)...play around.

Play around with the code.

I've been using Foobar2000 for a while now. I like the fact that I DON'T have to skin it. I had switched to CoolPlayer after using Winamp because it was faster, smaller, and easier to skin. But Foobar2000 is even faster then CoolPlayer, and not much larger either.

And here's my Foobar2000...

[Cream]

Adriana that looks awesome, what skin are you using?

EDIT:

_R2D2, is there a way to do it without having to code for every artist? I would hate to have to do it for all of them :wacko:

[Adriana]

Thank ya. And skin? I'm not using any skins, that's all Windows Classic right there. I used DisplaySet to change how Windows Classic displays. In Foobar2000, I just used the title formatting settings for that stuff. The buttons I made myself, I've been using those same ones for a long time now. I modified it though, columns_ui hates me. >_<

[Cream]

Yeah, I finally got the hang of all the tags =x

BTW, what's that font in your titlebar, it looks like glisp but I'm not sure...

[Adriana]

It's my own mod. I used Standard 07_57 caps, but mixed together parts from Standard 07_57 and Standard 07_55. And now I've got the perfect font. But that's just me, I suggest you try 07_55. It comes with the VS Pixelarmy.org by Qoa.

it's written on page 32 vip :rolleyes:

This should work. In the Columns UI prefs, go to the Globals tab and then to colours. Now, the colour globals work like so:

text|selected text|background|selected background. So you'd have something like so:

// Text
<text colour here>|

// Selected Text
<selected text colour here>|

// Background
$if($stricmp(%artist%,$or(artist1,artist2,artist3,...)),<bg colour for selected artists here>,<normal bg colour>)|

// Selected Background
%_bg_select%

Now, if you want to add more artists to it, just edit the $or() string... like so: $or(artist1,artist2,artist3,artist4)

Yeah....that's an easier way of doing it.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a formatting string and such that goes well with how I want my player sized (as pictured below) I've always been used to Winamp, but I love Foobar, yet I've never had my player bigger than how it is below.

Can anybody suggest how to keep my player the same size but make it a lot better looking?
