Columns UI: Bold text for "now playing item"

Hello, I use foobar2000 with Columns UI for a while now. I wonder, how to make text bold only for now playing item? I am trying to figure out this all day    I am not really good with title formatting syntax.
Maybe you could give me exact formatting script?
I want now playing item to be in Calibri font, 8 pt, bold.
Colors: RGB 235 235 235  if "Item" and "Inactive selected item" and RGB 255 255 255 if "Selected item".

BTW this is my foobar2000:

You can set the text colour as follows:

$set_style(text,text colour,selected item text colour[,selected item text colour when window is not focused])

So try something like:
Code: [Select]
$if(%isplaying%,
$set_style(text,$rgb(235,235,235),$rgb(255,255,255),$rgb(235,235,235))
,)

As far as I know there is no way to use text attributes like bold, underline, or italic but you can play around with colors all you like.
(Please someone correct me if I am wrong.)

el playlist is an alternative if you feel like getting your hands dirty. but it does require a lot more effort to learn how it works.

Thank you for the help. Too bad that something like this doesn't work.    I'll play around with colors then.
