this should only be used on vista or windows 7 with aero enabled. it relies on using the "system" colours for the playlist*.

(*it's possible to tinker with the colour settings yourself but you're on your own as far as that is concerned. :p)

That is brilliant and thank you for sharing. I was wondering if you, or anyone else really, could tell me how to remove the album art panel. Despite using f2k for a long time, I'm still very much noob. :(

download the zip file again (using the same link above) and import the updated .fcl file. no need to copy across the other files as they are the same.

you'll see album art is still enabled by default, but if you right click it and then select "splitter settings" and then goto the "script" tab, you'll see the first line of code is....

$set_ps_global(art.on,1)

change the 1 to a 0. :)

Is it possible to change/display the wmp/windows rating from the properties panel of foobar? I also can't figure out how to display the ratings I've made in WMP in a foobar playlist. foobar seems to not recognize the RATING WMP tag. if i manually add it in each file, WMP won't show the foobar rating. Is there a method that's consistent with both WMP and foobar?

they won't play nice with each other at all. but you might want to check this thread.

i don't know if it works though. i have no interest in WMP. :p

the config works fine in english. just use the .fcl file and images folder from the download. don't use the chinese language modded components.

edit: i've attached the files. you just need columns UI.

Hey guys,

After having a look at your mono lite mods I decided to take a try on my own one.

It took me a lot of time to understand that Panel Mod ... actually its pretty easy to use (Don't shoot me for those words If I am wrong :p)

but I am having trouble with something.

I want to get that stuff in the red circle into the sidebar. (Artist Song Album) - but I have no clue how to do that.

Below is an example of what I mean. Currently there is nothing I have just sketched it up.

currently the layout is like

Panel Stack Splitter

-->Horizontal Splitter

---->Panel Stack Splitter

------>Vertical Splitter

-------->Quick search

-------->Artwork View

-------->Lyric Show

-------->Channel Spectrum Panel

-------->Playback Order

Thanks for the help :)

@ diversionk - just add an "item details" panel to your vertical splitter.

@ phend-one - yup. no problems using any of my old components. also, there's another thread in back page news about the release.

hey marc,

thanks for the answer - I dont know how I could have missed that yesterday while doing it - but now I am having one single problem. The background of Item Details is White - but the sidebar is kinda greyish. I guess some code work is needed here - cause changing the values in the options does not improve it.

Edit/ got it working

Thanks Marc !

Hey guys I've seen a ton of awesome looking foobar skins but they all seem to be in playlist or album format in the library. Is it possible to make it title/song name view? Such that all songs are arranged alphabetically? I know it looks nicer in album format but it must be possible to do title view too right? I've had to switch from WMP12 as I'm almost 100% sure that it's the reason for causing speaker drivers to crash. Thanks, btw my goal is to try out MonoLite

@xinox, you can use [] around your title formatting to hide anything that isn't set. for example, in your rating column you could use

[%rating%]

instead of seeing a "?", it will be blank. you might prefer the "?" but i thought i'd mention it. :p

now obviously you wouldn't want to use that in your filter panel as it would hide all your unrated music. but you could use this instead...

$if2(%rating%,Not set)

1 = Delete Song

2 = Not sure if I want to keep or delete it

I setup hot keys for Ctrl Alt + 1 to 5 for rating songs. I like to listen to the entire song before rating it. It's a slow going process. :p

Thanks for the tip.
