I already did this for FP, I used autoit.

Thanatos.

Post the link and show me where? I wanna see what you did maybe I can add to it. I am not using autoit to do this though...

thanatos106 · 08-02-2006, 04:53 PM

no link cuz this is part of my new skin that I'm no talking about due some people start skin for pics etc.

Thanatos.

mbkowns · 08-02-2006, 05:04 PM

I don't care about this skin I just want to see your autoit code. Please show me that.

I wanna see what approach you took toward it. I am making it so if my app detects any file usage on any of the .wavs it will pause for 3 seconds. It can look up all of them very quick under a second.

Do you use FindFirstChangeNotification or something similar?

you might want to work with alti on this as he is working on creating an iGuidance plugin for CF

alti · 08-03-2006, 02:16 PM

ya, let me know how it is comming, I would like to add this ability to the plugin, I just completed the embedding and resizing, it now embeds perfectly at any resolution and the IG menubar and bottom bar are removed. and now I am going to start working on what commands can be sent via vkeys for control.

really cool idea, curious how well it works in practice, have you had any success in testing?

justintime · 08-03-2006, 02:28 PM

alti, have a thread on your plugin for IG yet? Very interested. Please make it so that the skin file can allow for custom positioning of the main app, the same way all other plugins currently allow. (My custom skin would need particular positioning)

justintime · 08-03-2006, 02:28 PM

Thanatos, please post AutoIT code for that.

mbkowns · 08-03-2006, 02:34 PM

Alti PM sent

I feel that in practice it will work after intial testing even with 87 wav files.

It is setup to work just like the web plugin, the panel that IG embeds into is controlled by the following xml fields.

<APPX>0</APPX>
<APPY></APPY>
<APPWIDTH></APPWIDTH>
<APPHEIGHT></APPHEIGHT>
<FULLAPPX></FULLAPPX>
<FULLAPPY></FULLAPPY>
<FULLAPPWIDTH></FULLAPPWIDTH>
<FULLAPPHEIGHT></FULLAPPHEIGHT>

The panel resizes according to the aspect ratio of the skin size so the values entered in the xml above do not need to change between different resolutions for the same skin.

so yes

you can resize it for your skin.

I did not start a thread here yet, I did not want to make any premature noise or get anyone angry with me if I could not make it work. It now seems that it will work well as the hardest part is done, so hopefully i will get a testing version out soon, I have to meet up with another member who lives close to me to test the plugin with Ig 3 as i only have 2, I will probibly invest in 3 soon anyway though as now that i have it mostly working I am willing to re-invest money in a newer software version.
