playlist randomizing/alphabetizing buttons

SoupGuru · 10th February 2003, 05:52

I'll start off with a disclaimer: I'm a n00b to winamp3 skinning.

With that in mind here's my question. I was hoping I could put two buttons on my main window. One to alphabetize my playlist one to randomize it. Basically shortcutting the menu system. I haven't come across anything mentioning that as a potential button action.

Is there anyway to do this in xml? I haven't yet got into scripting but if there is any potential in that direction I would love some guidance.

Thanks in advance

Methinks you're SOL with this one. Those commands are in a popup menu, so you'd actually need the code that defines that popupmenu to know how to do it. And I don't think that code is available. Maybe if you beg the programmers that made it, you'll get some help there. Otherwise, I don't think it's doable right now.

[edit] Guessing that's what the shuffle function is for, although it's not quite the same thing. [/edit]

Yeah, I was kinda thinking that was the case. But thanks for replying anyway.

I'm pretty sure it's possible
actually I'm almost positive it's possible
if you think about it, technically I think you could make your own randomize playlist function within MAKI (tho that'd be a waste)
