Menu Command Actions Do Not Work

sanneh — Sat, 06 Sep 2014 22:16:14 -0000

When writing a skin, it's tempting to use things like Playback/Random or View/Equalizer as button actions, however, they do not work. Anything that exists within a menu cannot be used as an action. It simply doesn't work.

The only playback functions that seem to work are Play, Play or Pause, Pause, Stop, Up, Down, Previous, Next, Set to -ndB, Activate or Hide, or basically anything that does not exist within a submenu. 'Random' (to immediately play a random track; not the same as shuffle) does not work.

These kinds of actions are used in the foo_title documentation, so I assume this functionality has become lost over the years since foo_title has been released.

"Restore topmost position every minute" is strange behavior

I assume this feature exists due to some kind of program limitation, but just in case it doesn't, please update this function to give foo_title the topmost z-order only until a fullscreen application takes it. For example, foo_title should not appear on top of always-on-top applications such as Media Player Classic or fullscreen video games.

If the z-order behavior cannot be improved, at least add an option to have foo_title not restore its z-order when foobar is not playing anything (stopped or paused).

UTF8 support for text fields

Would be really nice if text fields supported UTF8 characters.
