No. However, if you place the Album List on a splitter, you can then split again and place an Album Art element below it, like so:

It's not possible, but I would looooove it. For me, the only thing foobar is missing is a really nice library viewer. The tree system thing that is used for most of them is too simple for a media library IMO. Something like the one in WMP...

I think so, but it doesn't work on windows yet so I can't use it.

I don't know if anything like this would ever be made for foobar, I get the impression people prefer nice looking playlists than library viewers...

columns UI users have graphical browser. ok, it's not a true library viewer as it only uses the active playlist. but that's easily worked around by adding all your music to a playlist. and it can send music to it's own playlist. it does require effort to setup admittedly but it supports hover/selected/playing effects and can use text, gradient rectangles etc. you can set your own grouping code and it has various statistics it can collect. if you check the thread you'll see people have uploaded various configs/images to replicate the browsers in WMP/itunes/etc.

i have just the one line of code in mine - show the album cover with a 1px border around the edge...

Code: [Select]
$draw_image(1,1,$sub(%gb_width%,1),$sub(%gb_height%,1),$directory_path(%path%)\cover.jpg)
