Title: Feature Request - album details
Post by: marketability on October 06, 2002, 02:15:35 pm
When you have the album art view selected (the one with one image / album)

How about an option to display a track listing in the far right pane (where track data is displayed) so you can select a single track from an album?

Just  thought?

By the way - any plans to make hairspray a template based screen a la track info (ideally HTML)

Cheers

There is some flexibility already.  You can change the images and the type now.  We'll add a little more capability and then wait to see what the world thinks.

This is copied from one of the preview release threads:

To get to hairstyle, you need to be in Playing Now, go to full screen, then hit the menu key to the right of the space bar.

I like the PIP smaller, so I change this file:

C:\Program Files\J River\Media Jukebox\FullSkins\J River\main.xml by using notepad

After <PIP  

Change this line:
Rect="2,27,70,88"  
to:
Rect="5,80,20,95"  

The numbers represent percentages of the screen in this order:

left side of rectangle is x% from left side of screen
top is % from top of screen
right side is % from left side of screen
bottom is % from top of screen

If you get it wrong, MJ will loop until you use alt-ctrl-del.

We'll make this easier in another build.

It'll be skin based.  We wanted to use HTML, but HTML renderers are way too limited to accomplish everything we need to.  However, HTML/Shockwave inserts will be possible in a Hairstyle skin.
