Hi Jim,
Yes, I did set it to "on top". If you want to see what I am trying to do, here is a link to a screenshot:
Here is my overall issue: I want to be able to view my trackinfo page (artist, title, cover art, etc) but I still want to retain the functionality of the rest of MJ. There are three options that I have:
1. Display my trackinfo page in the windows taskbar (special JavaScript code). See it here:
Old Desktop. The problem is that if I go anywhere else in MJ besides "Playing Now", my external track info page won't update when the song changes. This will be a bigger problem when version 9 adds other media management - I won't be on "Playing Now" if I'm looking at pictures, etc.
2. Make the Track Info page display in "Windowed" mode. I do keep the rest of MJ functionality, and would be able to work with other media without losing my real-time track information. The problem is that since you use normal Windows window controls for this mode, I cannot keep the window displayed where I need it to be. Is there a possibility of this becoming an application window instead of using MS window controls? Here's a screenshot of what I'm trying to do:
My New Desktop.
3. Mini-skin. This would let me keep the display where I need it, but I lose all other MJ functionality - I would have to go from mini-to-mega skin to view other media (version 9) or do other media library work. One solution that would work great for this mode - if you could allow both a mini-skin and a mega-skin to be running at the same time! I could keep one small corner mini-skin and be using the mega-skin to do the other stuff. Any possibility of this?
I bet it must be interesting to see how many different and unique ways people find to use your product!!!
Thanks!
