The playlist is sorted by Artist, so when tracks have different artists they get split up. If you want them grouped, you can fill the "Album Artist"-Tag. For Soundtracks you could use "Various Artists".

Hello,

i'm a total noob of customizing foobar, can anybody help me out how to make it look like this? i'm sure it's not that complicated, looks like a pretty simple layout, guess it's just a few settings in columns ui, unfortunately i don't have any skills.

thanks very much in advance.

Hi, I saw it before on other themes, so does anyone know how to make a transparent background ( ~30%) in fb2k, but only the background, not the other stuff upon it.. ?

you cannot with the actual version of foobar, but if you downgrade to v0.9.5.2, you will be able to do this with PanelsUI, but you need titleformatting skills to create a PUI config... and some practice of PUI functions too.

Regards.

Here is my last config Xchange v3 for foobar2000 0.9.6 (should work with al 0.9.x earlier versions too, not tested)

What component are you using for the album art / track info area?

Looks great btw!

I'm actually using foo_trackinfomod for that area (To overcome some problems with panel splitter, don't know if they're added in newer builds), everything else is panel splitter and ELPlaylist.

Was wondering if someone could do me a HUGE favour?

Basically, I'd very much like to have the 'Browser' pop up menu on the left hand side of the picture; ith has 2 panels like: [ x ] [ ]

All I would like to do is have that box in the 'Library' tab which is the 4th along the bottom. I've tried messing around with code but in all honestly I have no idea of the language used.

Could someone please have a look and maybe even show me the code to insert into the config settings, which I have uploaded? - For anyone who knows what they are doing, would it not only involve copying and pasting the correct code?

Thanks in advance,

Craig

EDIT: It's also frustrating me to no end why the ALBUM RATING tag stops working randomly, but will work sometimes. tbh, I'd really like someone to just tidy up my foobar code :(

This is probably a really simple issue, but basically I've been running toolej's setup (or a mod, I forget) for some time now.

This is what it should look like:

But this is what it looks like every time I open foobar:

It's easily fixed by going to Preferences > PanelsUI and just clicking "Save All" without changing anything. Am I missing something really obvious here? It's a bit annoying.

Any help is appreciated.

My heavily modded MonoLite.

foobarx.th.png

There will eventually be more buttons in the iPod tab, ones to sync, eject, send playlists and manage contents, basically every function that foo_dop supports but since it took me hours to get the text off the original tab and make 6 more tabs it might be some time before I get the buttons added.

Anyone fancy making me some buttons?

Can you upload your customization/pm me a link? It looks good.

Is it possible to have a script that turns off album separation and headers for certain playlists in MonoLite?

I have a playlist that is all singles, but when I view it, I literally get album headers for every single song.

edit: NEvermind, found it. enable the playlist filter

    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.

      That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,
