Either edit the [Browser] section of layout.ini (or use the Layout Designer) to make the browser’s Width and Height both = zero.
Layout Designer tip: After you’ve typed in the values, you MUST use the spin buttons to make the typed value ‘stick.’
Note to Torben: Maybe the OnExit method for those four spin controls needs to be changed so that a typed value will be honoured when you Tab away from the control?
This gets rid of the browser window but it is needed to select audio.
Perhaps I didn’t explain myself very well - I was thinking more of a button on the main toolbar similar to the ‘Cartwall’ button if the ‘Show Cartwall button in toolbar’ option is ticked.
This way the browser can be ‘brought up’ on the screen (temporarily covering some elements of the base display) and then ‘hidden’ again when the audio has been selected.
Would this be a reasonably simple modification to make (given that you have the structure in place for the cartwall) and, if so, can you give an estimation on time?
It is obviously low priority but might be a quick win…
Hi Ron, disable the browser altogether and use Charlie’s Browser Adder utilty somewhere in these forums.
You can drag and drop the audio from this into a mAirList Playlist.
Radiorom also has a utilty on these forums which will also search your audio directories and if i remember correctly also alow drag and drop into a playlist.
I failed to find Charlie’s Browser Adder utility but I really want to use the same database for everything and I suspect that this route would not be able to add from the mAirList database.
There’s no “structure” for the cartwall, actually, it’s more or less a bunch of configuration settings plus dozens of if-then-else statements. I’m also not sure how to handle the screen objects in automatic layout - should they take up the whole space when the browser is “detached”?
I’ll keep it in mind, but nothing I can implement within a minute.
