Ugly Playlist Scrollbar

Freaky_T · 29th April 2004, 00:34

I can't stand the ugly scrollbar in the playlist editor when Winamp5 has a freeform skin loaded. Why can't it use the nice looking scrollbars, like in the Media Library?

(Winamp3/wasabi.player do this)

Winamp 5.X's Playlist Editor isn't the same playlist editor as Winamp3. Winamp 5.X is not Winamp3. You are going to make some sacrifices when you try to convert. Sorry, don't expect it to look exactly like Winamp3.

Hmmm... I don't know how often we must bitch about this to finally get it changed (I already did - without success). It seems like the scrollbar is still from 1998 (!) and I can exactly tell you why they won't touch it: They're just afraid that classic skins won't work anymore. In this case, they could at least make it an OPTION (for the modern skin) to choose a nicer scrollbar. Where the f... is the problem???

For classic skins, it would probably break compatibility.

I agree, a nicer playlist scrollbar in Winamp's default modern skin would be nice.

But remember, just two people work on Winamp now. I believe, they primary focus on bugfixing.

I thing many many many many many many..........
I posted it myself already and i've seen it at least 5 times by other posts

It may seem unimportant to the developers, but its so damn enoying, and sure can't be that hard to fix.
