Music Category Variable Request

Postby mattdisaster on Sun May 15, 2005 5:17 pm

Hiya steven! I know you're super busy, but I'de like to put in a request for a simple variable for music category. I'de like to have a way to show the total tracks on the current playlist. On my now playing screen I have a box that shows the current track number, I'de like to place the faded number of total tracks on the playlist behind it, as I have done with the time/total time. Looks pretty neato. Thanks alot steven, you're the best!

I have this in my playlist for a while :)

Put this in the textfield:
%playlist>total% Tracks

I'm sorry guys, but its not working for me, all I'm getting is the word "Tracks" showing up. In case there's been some misunderstanding I want the actual number of tracks on the playlist to show. Wierd. And I'm using the newest exe and all that.
