Sometimes when deleting a playlist the confirmation window is very large.

@tamer Hopefully alpha 5 renders non-antialiased text okay for you. (For me, it renders Tahoma at 8pt, 100% DPI the same as 2.1.0 when font smoothing is off.)

In the playlist viewer, if the text does not fit, the color of the dots at the end now does not match that specified in the script.

Thanks for the report. Will investigate how to fix this.

Thanks for this report as well. Will investigate. I know what might be going wrong, but if you find any particular factors that cause it to happen, that would also be helpful.

How not minimize window "foobar2000 picture viewer" at minimize the most foobar2000 and how to narrow width "foobar2000 picture viewer" yet more (on the maximum (on 400 and more pixels)), considering elements of viewer?

Yet, cans make synchronous editing of tags symbolic links with the (targeted, source) files in playlist?

Message to music music:

I have the latest version of foobar 64-bit installed.
Since Columns UI 3.0.0 Alpha.1 version I have noticed a problem that persists in Alpha.5 and it consists of the following:
- I activate in the right panel the Smooth Browser.
- From the album list panel I select an artist
- I change in the right panel from Smooth to Re-Facets.
- Before I paint the Re-Facets data, I can perceive traces of the covers for a moment.
- As long as I don't change the artist I can switch from Smooth to Re-Facets without the remains of the covers being perceived.
- When the artist is changed, the effect is reproduced again.

I attach the video where you can see the effect and an image.  
When you switch to the ReFacets tab, ReFacets is focused and some other part of the UI is taking a while to process the selection change and blocking the rest of the UI while it does that. As for why the previous tab temporarily shows through some parts of ReFacets in that scenario, I can only assume it's some quirk of how ReFacets works.

With the possibility to detach all or only panel "Artwork view", no need in a "foobar2000 picture viewer", that's why i'm asking: possibly make disconnect (detach) all or only panel "Artwork view" form foobar2000? Also yet interesting:
  • Possibly as an exception to include (turn on) syntax (pattern) in "Use custom panel title" option (by sides or center), only for titles of panel "Artwork view"?
  • And possibly to create a status bar with technical datas of picture (cover) only for the panel "Artwork view"?

In foobar2000 v1.5.12 neither the size nor the console font itself changes.

Thanks, I've already tried it. The only complain is that the star icons are now jagged, but decided not to mention it. I've seen on github the amount of work it took, maybe i'm just asking too much.  ::)

If you mean View/Console, that's correct. More general support for using the colours and fonts of the active UI was added in foobar2000 2.x. In foobar2000 1.x, the the View/Console window will take its settings from Default UI.

Yes, I'm afraid controlling anti-aliasing at that level is quite difficult. I'm also not seeing 2.1.0 do much different in this respect (except probably rendering the symbols a bit differently in this scenario).

There is, though, a fairly easy path to adding support for SVG glyphs on recent versions of Windows using Direct2D. SVG glyphs are unaffected by the text anti-aliasing setting (though you'd still need to get it to use suitable glyphs in some other font...)

Musicmusic, so possibly disconnect (detach) all or panel "Artwork view" form foobar2000 and how copy and edit text directly from panels "Item details", "OpenLyrics"?

@musicmusic

Two requests for layout mode:

1) Possibility to pick up a panel in layout mode by clicking and holding left mouse and drag it to the position you want instead of clicking move up and down a lot.

2) Show the captions of the elements/panels with a mouseover (or when left clicked).

To me with ui_columns-3.0.0-alpha.5 at the vault?, folding?, bringing? sides of border together, exit crash window and foobar2000 1.6.18 close!

@Eva1 I'm afraid I don't quite follow what you mean. I can see a crash report relating to auto-hide functionality from this morning, but I'm guessing that was not from you as it was submitted some hours after your post.

If you are experiencing a crash, submit the crash report and confirm the time it was submitted (or post the crash log and dump here). If you have some steps to reproduce the problem, make a screen recording (for example, using ShareX) and post it.

In tooltip in system tray not always show (job) metadatas by scripts. Very often during playback, "foobar2000" appears.

Is it possible to adjust the tab stack's tab size? It seems to be clamped to a minimum size.

Also, how do I adjust the alignment of the text within the tab? Adding random spaces until it gets aligned is the only way to do it? Adding tab chars doesn't work.

There's no setting in Columns UI, but apparently the Windows tab control does allow the minimum size to be changed. So I could reduce it for everyone (or add a setting...)

In light mode, Windows is rendering the tabs and it uses left-alignment when the text is smaller than the minimum tab width. I don't see a way for Columns UI to easily change that. In dark mode, Columns UI renders the tabs and it is centre-aligning the text for me.

Message to music music:

I have just installed version 2.0.4 of the Album List Panel which apparently fixes some bugs.
However I find that one of the bugs that I already exposed several years ago still exists.
I am referring to the following:
   - If I check the box “Show root node” (Image1) the album list panel offers at the beginning of the album list panel “All music (6481)” (image2).
   - I type “Miles” and the album list panel takes me to the artist “Miles Davis” listing in the “library viewer Selection” all his albums.
   - Now I type “A” and instead of offering the first artist starting with “A” it offers me all my library. As I have more than 1.000.000.000 songs it takes 20 seconds to list the library in the “Library viewer selection” which is a nuisance.
   - At the time we said that a solution would be to replace “All music (6481)” with “- All music (6481)”.

I would appreciate it if you could find a solution for this problem.

Right after minimise foobar2000 (in time play one track), having pointed on icon in system tray, not show (job) metadatas by pattern (scripts), but show title "foobar2000", how on picture.

A setting would be pretty great, since it would allow to tweak themes for icons or words on demand.

I'm using light mode, this is just Win 7 with a custom dark theme, so it uses left-alignment. I would say that if size could be changed, [manual] alignment would be less of a problem though.

Oh my gosh I just installed the newest version and this is what I need. I use a lot of text symbols and now they've all turned into emojis and it looks horrendous. Is there a way to turn it off? I'm going back to the previous version for now.
Think millionaire, but with cannons.

Hey y'all. I realize this is likely a stupid question, but... is there a list of meta fields and display scripts I can access? I want to add a *bunch* of columns (including File Path), but I have no clue what to fill in for those two fields.

HI.

CUI 3.0.0 alpha5

If I insert colored characters in the columns of the playlist, the color does not remain constant but changes depending on whether the row is selected or not.

The two screenshots show what happens.

Is it possible to make sure that colors don't change if the row is selected?
