foo_uie_panel_splitter is an extension for Columns UI that allows you to place objects freely within the foobar2000 window, including panels, text (e.g., track info), and images.

foobar2000 v0.9.5.1+, Columns UI 0.3+

Requirements

Reference (translated and adapted from Japanese Read me)

foo_uie_panel_splitter.dll v0.3.8.3a (2009/12/11) for foobar2000 v0.9.5.2+, Columns UI0.3 +, WindowsXP +

Panel Splitter shares many similarities to the playlist panel component ELPlaylist, because it is being developed by the same author ssenna. Therefore functions and fields are very similar.

Columns UI panel to place the splitter And without borders, or a little over a panel and set the highest possible degree of freedom. Has been stable or loose?

Description

Add and remove panels from the basic layout of the ColumnsUI do. They can add from the context menu.

Placement of the panel and automatic alignment mode, forced mode is set. Auto-deploy mode, a horizontal (Horizontal) or placed in a vertical direction (Vertical) or choose a place. Forced layout mode that is placed on the force placed on the panel.

Setting up menus and items

PanelList

size: size of the display panel (Horizontal size if horizontal, Vertical Vertical size of it)
lock size: a place without scaling.
- off when the size of each panel to be placed according to the Splitter and the appropriate scaling for size.
- ± 1 to lock the current situation that would blur pixel minutes.
  - So hard to fix, could not fix.

forced layout: left Top width right under it to force the panel to be placed in the specified range.

(size and auto-scaling is disabled)

If you stacked the panel appears on the front panel as a list of the top panel (But depends on the implementation of the child panel. I have come to the front panel profusely.) Title Formatting is enabled. %_width% %_height% in the horizontal width of the Panel Stack Splitter, you can see the vertical width. Example:

left: $div(%_width%,4)
top: $div(%_height%,4)
width: $div(%_width%,2)
height: $div(%_height%,2)

Also, Splitter mode to specify a value relative to size. is on the use percentage value is, Splitter percentage for the size of the [0-100] can be specified. use percentage value of setting example:

left: 25
top: 25
width: 50
height: 50

padding: Add a space around the panel.

Title Formatting to put the numbers are fixed, so invalid. If the automatic alignment panels, padding can be resized with the mouse as if the border is set. enable resizable border with on / off can be

caption: The name of the panel, the identifier
use background color: the color specified, the background fill.
use image: specify a fixed background image. TitleFormatting is disabled.
pseudo transparent: splitter to simulate a transparent background. (splitter and if you use the nest)

[Note]

ColumnsUI in the panel is to present the panel with the transparent background feature, use background color or use image backgrounds are often not transparent and does not use the panel.

Additional drawing functions

$getlastpos(elem)

Display function imageabs, imageabs_rc right after, to get the coordinates to draw a picture. Also, $measurestring use them when you get the results. If you are drawString, mempos available only immediately after the specified coordinates.

Elem element to retrieve.

X: left

$drawstring to calculate the area when drawing text. As a result, returns to the horizontal width of the viewing area. The display area is to get $getlastpos. OPTIONS is the same as $drawstring. If $drawstring uses the glow_aa or glow options, the $measurestring value returned may not be accurate.

$getimagewidth(path),$getimageheight(path)

The image path is specified in $imageabs $imageabs_rc of cache memory. If the image has been resized in the horizontal width and vertical width it returns the respective values. This means that only have $imageabs $imageabs_rc behind. nokeepaspect may be able to calculate the aspect ratio should be applied.
