Sauceman Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Can someone tell me the difference between the Album List Panel and the Database Explorer?

Ran Sagy Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Indeed, though i would agree its the wrong thread for that discussion. Plus, knowing some neowiniains, a discussion about that would end up in flame wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel. Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 (edited) How would I go about changing the colour of the things that are too dark to read on the statusbar? (I think that's what it's called, the bar at the bottom with MP3 information) Using Columns UI if you couldn't tell :) Edit: Ah don't worry, found it :D Just in case anyone else wants to know, it's in Title Formatting.

Ran Sagy Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Go to the foobar options, Title Formatting, Status Bar. Look at where the colors codes are at, usually a bunch of numbers enclosed in two tiny squares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! 585803278[/snapback] Album List can only show one query(tree), where DB Explorer can show multiple trees at the same time. If you only want a list(tree) of your albums, Album list is fine, I think it has also a better performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt0 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Got another code question for the guys who've already figured this out. How could you compare an artists name with the previous artists name, and have it display none if identical? I ask cos, all the other strings I've seen display by tracknumber (if 1 display artist, is 2 display nill etc), and since most of my library are singles from all sorts of different albums, that doesnt really work unless i make up a bunch of b.s tracknumbers for the songs i have. I've played with it a bit, but can never really get what I want. Is it even possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
