CaTRoX_QWR VS Library-Tree

Two are taken from other themes. The biggest that I had the least to do with is the playlist viewer from the CaTRoX_QWR theme. I wanted to use it as a standalone panel and crudely hacked it out.

Beyond that, there are several Spider Monkey Panels. Some scripts are modified from the examples given, which—like the SQL Tree for SQLite—has served as a vehicle with which to teach myself javascript. The scrolling "Artist •[sometimes Composer •] Track" detail panel was modified from the TripleQ theme, and the playlist viewer was taken from CaTRoX QWR, though the version from Georgia REBORN has caught my eye of late.

I've ripped the playlist viewer out of the CaTRoX_QWR theme and am using it off-label, so I guess I'll bring my trouble here. It's in a simple Columns UI layout and isn't playing nicely with the standard CUI Filter search box. It may never have been intended to, but other Spider Monkey Panel playlists do; I'd like to try to make them work together.

Not sure, why its not in the foobar components page, but I found it from the CaTRoX QWR theme page - https://theqwertiest.github.io/CaTRoX_QWR/ .

So I'm trying some of the themes out there and looking for panels to raid from them. Right now, I have a CaTRoX QWR installation up. The playlist looks to have something I've been looking for: a nice drag-and-drop for moving tracks around. I like all the different times on display too, with the album length and selection length shown. I think I can work with the spectrum analyzer and inflict my color scheme on it, since I may have to bid farewell to my lovely foo-uie-vis-channel-spectrum at some point.

I'm new to foobar and recently installed this theme https://theqwertiest.github.io/CaTRoX_QWR/

SMP v1.6.1 Biography-v1.4.1.zip Library-Tree-v2.4.0.zip

Curious why are you using such old versions? SMP 1.3.0 was over three years ago. And Library Tree is 2.4.0 currently with tons of improvements since the first versions.

The current version of Library Tree, on the other hand, has tons more features and is "stand-alone" that can be placed in any user-made theme. (foobar is a "make your own" player)

Also once Spider Monkey Panel goes 64-bit (hopefully soon as well), the Library Tree script replicates much of what Facets did including album art views, multiple filter panes, and even does some things better like highlighting now playing. (I would not be surprised if we get SMP updated before ReFacets)

Are you still using Album List or did you install Library Tree (w/ Spider Monkey Panel)?

Firstly, which theme are you talking? (If Eole, if I'm not mistaken it still uses old versions which have limited features compared to the current version of Library Tree script)

The "big three" scripts by WilB are invaluable to me - Library Tree is closely approaching the best library viewer foobar has seen, it already mimics a lot of Facets, and the next version will apparently bring it even more in line with that. Biography auto-downloads and displays artist photos and missing cover art, and lets you read those in-depth artist wikipedia articles directly in foobar. And then Find & Play lets you listen to albums you do not even have yet - wondering what else the currently selected artist has done? In one click you can see everything they've released and load an album into a playlist, ready to stream from YouTube. (I mean, come on!)

Since you are on 32-bit, you can install Spider Monkey Panel and put Library Tree in there. As it shows on the screenshots, you can put two panels next to each other, and setup the view / source to show Artist -> Album covers, similar to Facets. (Library Tree has quite a lot of view options, including tree modes, list mode / columns, cover art and flow modes, and then lots of options on top)

If you're on 32-bit, install Spider Monkey Panel and add Library Tree script.

With a library viewer like Facets or Library Tree script, in a single column / tree you can combine multiple fields - %%|%% - identical artist names will be merged into one entry. This way clicking the one name you get a complete list of an artist entire works, including features, appearances, etc (as many tags as you add). Alternatively, you can do the opposite with each tag in a separate column / tree branch, to filter the featured artist under / next to the lead artist. (I've never tried to set that up in a tree though it could be interesting!)
