i wonder , have you played with the button settings in albums.txt you may of moved it off screen , or somthing, have you got the last release pete put out , in post 228 above
there was an issue before as pete mentioned a few post back .

**pcpete** · 07-20-2009, 02:28 PM

Yeah, he could be on an older version, or button off screen..

BTW....just released a bug fix version 0720 on first post

This has all previous sizing and double names fixes plus it will work with all versions of RR

pete yet another request if pos

i have now moved your great creation to skinpath plugins folder i think it a good place to have it. anyway the infobutton box which you see in my scr shots is now top right. but it disappears when i go to stage view can this be added so it appears in stage view as well, useing the same settings in the album.txt.

thank you

so you want the info button to always display?

The info button was originally just for debugging, but decided to keep it.

Was thinking of making it more flexible as well as adding options for more info, actually would be cool if pressed it would expand to show more info.....hmmm

**carputer1** · 07-21-2009, 01:39 PM

well i like your thinking but can i suggest a few things that may help flexabily a bit more

yes i do want it to display all times , great minds think alike lol...
having clickable to give more info great move.

if you can allow my special request for using other image to read the skinpath variable

$SKINPATH$XXXX\XXXX\XXXX

that would be
a great step for me at least , and also for any other skins that will use this , as you said
the skin.ini can be used for the settings, but if your like treetop777 who has evry skin under the sun (skin junkie lol) the settings can be in each skin.ini and your app in rr root plugins folder ,

so for example , cm in rr root plugins

the user loads my skin of which use's external images ( settings in skin.ini)
then loads lets say Teknik4 skin without external images (settings in skin.ini)

it will just make things alittle easyier dose this make sense , bloody speech to text is playing up sorry.

Actually how about having the albums.txt in each skin
And cm looks for it before load

1st looks in it's own where that folder is if not found look
In skinpath for it.

I think that's how you are doing it for paths.txt or close to it

**pcpete** · 07-21-2009, 03:20 PM

Ok, so I'm going to make it so that the swf(s) can reside anywhere you want and the paths to the settings, paths and images can handle rrpath, skinpath etc....right?

eg put .... RFCM_$skinpath$albumstxt.swf in rr root folder ( or plugins)...

in albums.txt one could put..

&cover=$skinpath$folder.jpg&END
&defaultpaths=$skinpath$paths.txt&END
&shufbutimage=$skinpath$paw.png&END

Yeah, if skinpath or whatever not specified, will look for settings in swf folder, if not there, will look in skinpath floder, if not there will use builtin default settings..
