I'm trying to add a window to my skin that displays the track information but for some reason i can't get it to work.

This is in the Main.xml file:
<WINDOW Name="info" Bitmap="info_body.gif" TransColor="FF00FF">

<INFODISPLAYS>
<Entry Name="TrackInfo" Tip="Track Info" TrackInfo="PN_POSITION. ALBUM: ARTIST - NAME ( ELAPSED_TIME )" Rect="16,31,224,9" Align="Scroll">
<Colors Text="FFFFFF" />
<Font Facename="Bank Gothic Medium BT" Size="11" Weight="100" Italic="0"/>
</Entry>
</INFODISPLAYS>


</WINDOW>

This is in the main window i took out all the extra code that doesn't pertain to the problem:
<Events>
<Entry Event="OnButtonDown" Item="ToggleInfo" Action="Script" ActionData="OnToggleInfoButton" />
<Events/>
<Buttons>
<Entry Name="ToggleInfo" Bitmap="button.gif" Tip="Toggle Info" Position="93,63" NumberImages="3"/>
</Buttons>

Now here is the code where the problem is likely to be occuring:

var stateNormal = 1;
var statePressed = 2;
var stateDisabled = 3;
var stateHidden = 4;

var typeButton = 0;
var typePlaceholder = 1;
var typeSlider = 2;
var typeInfoDisplay = 3;

var stateStopped = 0;
var statePaused = 1;
var statePlaying = 2;
var stateWaiting = 3;

function OnInitialize()
{
if(Metamorphis.LoadSkinState() == false)
{
var x = Player.Left;
var y = Player.Top;

Vol.SetWindowPos(x - 0, y + 53);
Vol.ShowWindow(true);

var ButtonVol = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleVol");
ButtonVol.State = statePressed;
ButtonVol.Tooltip = "Hide Volume / Position";

EQ.SetWindowPos(x + 230, y + 100);
EQ.ShowWindow(true);

var ButtonEQ = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleEqualizer");
ButtonEQ.State = statePressed;
ButtonEQ.Tooltip = "Hide Equalizer";

Info.SetWindowPos(x + 100, y + 0);
Info.ShowWindow(true);

var ButtonInfo = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleInfo");
ButtonInfo.State = statePressed;
ButtonInfo.Tooltip = "Hide Info";

Visualization.SetWindowPos(x + 200, y + 0);
Visualization.ShowWindow(true);

var ButtonVis = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleVisualization");
ButtonVis.State = statePressed;
ButtonVis.Tooltip = "Hide Visualization";

Playlist.SetWindowPos(x - 0, y +85);
Playlist.ShowWindow(true);

var ButtonPl = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "TogglePlaylist");
ButtonPl.State = statePressed;
ButtonPl.Tooltip = "Hide Playlist";
}

OnPlayStateChanged();
}

function OnExit()
{
Metamorphis.SaveSkinState();
}

function OnToggleVolButton()
{
var Button = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleVol");
if(Vol.IsWindowVisible() == false)
{
Vol.ShowWindow(true);
Vol.MoveWindowAnimated(0, 27, 1);

if(Playlist.IsWindowVisible() == true)
Playlist.MoveWindowAnimated(0, 27, 1);

Button.State = statePressed;
Button.Tooltip = "Hide Volume / Position";
}
else
{
Vol.MoveWindowAnimated(0, -27, 1);
Vol.ShowWindow(false);

if(Playlist.IsWindowVisible() == true)
Playlist.MoveWindowAnimated(0, -27, 1);

Button.State = stateNormal;
Button.Tooltip = "Show Volume / Position";
}
}

function OnToggleEqButton()
{
var Button = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleEqualizer");
if(EQ.IsWindowVisible())
{
EQ.ShowWindow(false);

Button.State = stateNormal;
Button.Tooltip = "Show Equalizer";
}
else
{
EQ.ShowWindow(true);

Button.State = statePressed;
Button.Tooltip = "Hide Equalizer";
}
}

function OnToggleInfoButton()
{
var Button = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleInfo");
if(Info.IsWindowVisible())
{
Info.ShowWindow(false);

Button.State = stateNormal;
Button.Tooltip = "Show Info";
}
else
{
Info.ShowWindow(true);

Button.State = statePressed;
Button.Tooltip = "Hide Info";
}
}

function OnToggleVisualization()
{
var Button = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "ToggleVisualization");
if(Visualization.IsWindowVisible())
{
Visualization.ShowWindow(false);

Button.State = stateNormal;
Button.Tooltip = "Show Visualization";
}
else
{
Visualization.ShowWindow(true);

Button.State = statePressed;
Button.Tooltip = "Hide Visualization";
}
}

function OnTogglePlaylist()
{

var Button = Player.GetSkinItem(typeButton, "TogglePlaylist");
if(Playlist.IsWindowVisible())
{
Playlist.ShowWindow(false);

Button.State = stateNormal;
Button.Tooltip = "Show Playlist";
}
else
{
Playlist.ShowWindow(true);

Button.State = statePressed;
Button.Tooltip = "Show Playlist";
}
}

function OnPlayStateChanged()
{
var PlayState = MJAutomation.GetPlayback().State;

if(PlayState == statePlaying)
{
Visualization.GetSkinItem(typePlaceholder, "LogoAnimated").State = stateHidden;
Visualization.GetSkinItem(typePlaceholder, "Visualization").State = stateNormal;
}
else if(PlayState == stateStopped)
{
Visualization.GetSkinItem(typePlaceholder, "LogoAnimated").State = stateNormal;
Visualization.GetSkinItem(typePlaceholder, "Visualization").State = stateHidden;
}
}

I Really don't know what it all means i just copied from the eutow skin.

Here is the error that i get whenever i try to display the Info window:
JScript Error.
Code = 800a1391
Code meaning = Unknown error 0x800A1391
Source = Microsoft JScript runtime error
Description = 'Info' is undefined

I don't know what i'm doing and don't know what this means, can someone help me out?

also i can't figure out how to make the extra windows go to a predefined place, they always just end up going to 0, 0 no matter what i do. I want the playlist and such to show up right next to the main window, how do i fix this?

ha i figured it out, Information is a restricted variable. Someone should have told us that

I still can't figure out how to make the windows not appear in the 0,0 position

PLEASE HELP!!!

FrankL,

Do you have state.xml file in your skin's directory? Try removing it and see if it helps.
