How ?

[parisienne17]

My bad ! ;.)

[ariszlo]

No problem. One cannot remember all posts in a thread as long as this.

Hello..

Sure, you're right but there were times where I would have queried the thread/forum rather than asking.

I'm pretty sure this one has never been covered, by me I mean ;.) : is there a way to open a window, playlist/media libray at a given position ? For the 1st opening, I mean, as of course one could move a window to another place after and let winamp remember it's new place.

[parisienne17]

There's a thing I don't understand : I have files in a folder for which I haved 2 cover arts.
When I assign one covert art to a particular file, all others reflects also the change when they should use the other covert art.

I've tried the load covert art button, the change button, I've also deleted the actual cover art and used the right one with no luck even if I save the media list state.

What's wrong ?

Yes. Add default_x="600" default_y="400" with your own values to the container tags in pledit.xml/ml.xml

I have files in a folder for which I haved 2 cover arts. ... What's wrong ?

I don't know. I don't use cover art images in my folders. All my files have embedded cover art.

Yes. Add default_x="600" default_y="400" with your own values to the container tags in pledit.xml/ml.xml

But as winamp opens up centered the 1st time, then if I move it the programmed location will be broken. Is there a way to set a position relatively to the player ?

[ariszlo]

Yes. You can do it in maki with the getLeft, getTop and setXmlParam functions as in albumartvis.m.

Trying to achieve this skin with what's left of eyesight, is the modification of switchpopup right ?

[ariszlo]

Yes, it is all right. Great new avatar!

[parisienne17]

compiling ok, besides a typo (visualikation rather than visualisation).

Thanks for the avatar : an old photoshop work based on a nick knight photography

Now, on to segmenting player-normal-group.xml.

Hi,

I have issues implementing menu choices for layouts.

In skin

<include file="xml/player.xml"/> 

in player

<include file="player-elements.xml"/>
<script id="switchpopup" file="scripts/switchpopup.maki"/> 
<container id="main" name="Main window" default_x="0" default_y="0" default_visible="1">
<include file="player-normal.xml"/> 

in player-normal

<include file="player-normal-group.xml" />
<include file="player-AlbumArt-group.xml" />

<button
  id="Switch Layouts"
  action="SWITCH" param="AlbumArt"
  x="10" y="100"
  image="ShowHideCover"
  hoverImage="ShowHideCover-hover"
  downImage="ShowHideCover" 
  tooltip="Switch to next mode (right-click for more choices)"
  rectrgn="1"
/> 

and a player-albumart-group.xml with it's entries, but upon launching winamp I get a red guru meditation notification.

What am I doing wrong ?

[ariszlo]

The container tag should include all your layouts and the switchpopup script should come last before </container>.

<include file="player-elements.xml"/>
<container id="main" name="Main window" default_x="0" default_y="0" default_visible="1">
  <include file="player-normal.xml"/>
  <include file="player-other-layout-1.xml"/>
  <include file="player-other-layout-2.xml"/>
  <include file="player-other-layout-etc.xml"/>
  <script id="switchpopup" file="scripts/switchpopup.maki"/> 
</container>

Yeepeee... At least the forums came back !
I was stressed not to be able to access the waluable information here to try to complete my skin. Now pages are saved, all is good.

Tweaking graphics and layouts, soom more news. Or questions ? ;.)

By the way do you have javascript knowledge or have some friends or tips ? I've been skinning widgets for XWidget these last month but as I'm a coder like I'm a superhero, I don't know how to replicate windows 7 aero effect under a widget area.

Hi,

In case you're still around here, I've been struggling with something I can't pinpoint.

I've redone the skin, first miroring it horizontaly and redoing buttons (AOT, shuffle, etc...). The previous layout worked well so miroring it would be a simple code twoeaking. Except what was previously working for the repeat button doesn't anymore. Do you see here something wrong ?

Player-elements

<!-- REPEAT BUTTON -->
<bitmap id="button.Repeat" file="player/R6.png"/>

<bitmap id="button.repeat.hover" file="player/R6Hover.png"/>
<bitmap id="button.repeat.hover1" file="player/R6-hover-all.png" x="0" y="69" w="71" h="68"/>
<bitmap id="button.repeat.hover2" file="player/R6-hover-all.png" x="0" y="137" w="71" h="68"/>
<bitmap id="button.Repeat0" file="player/R6-down-all.png" x="0" y="0" w="71" h="68"/>
<bitmap id="button.Repeat1" file="player/R6-down-all.png" x="0" y="69" w="71" h="68"/>
<bitmap id="button.Repeat2" file="player/R6-down-all.png" x="0" y="137" w="71" h="68"/> 

Player-normal

<group id="buttonsRow" x="70" y="135" w="450" h="120" /> 

Player-normal-group

<NStatesButton

/>


The repeat button is smaller than it should and nudged in it's states.

The repeat button (hover & down) is 88x85 for one frame, 88x255 in total and I get this (the last 2 upper buttons are from the previous l
