Description Vladimir Dorta 2006-11-08 09:25:57 UTC
If the "Now Playing "song extends to more than one line, it is partially covered by the first item on the "Current Playlist". It looks as if there should be more space between the two.

truncate to fit.

not much can be done here, as css does not allow for magic reziing to fit when frames and multiple browsers still have to be supported.  Best solution here is to cut the extraordinary long tracklines to something that will fit.

as no screenshot or skin details were provided, I've assumed Default skin.

It looks to me like you have to have a really ridiculously long song name to achieve this problem.  It is a bug, but we have bigger fish to fry at the moment.  Perhaps at GUI rework time we can see if there is a good way to fix this issue.

Subject: Re:  Problem on Slimserver's Music Player Display

Thanks for your reply, but I strongly disagree with your "really 
ridiculously long song name " judgment. That a display window can't even 
show *two* lines of text by itself is really bad, and not only regarding 
classical music. There are many pop songs that easily fill one entire line, 
and when you add Slimserver's extra "from xxx album" information, there you 
have two full lines. I also disagree with your suggestion that it isn't an 
urgent matter, because the display is the first impression about Slimserver 
that most users will have, not the other "below the radar" bugs that are 
solved. By the way, I have never had any major problem with either 
Slimserver or SB and I like both very much.

two lines?  I had to manufacture one to be three lines long in order to see anything clipping.  What is the window size of the browser that you are using??

I tried to answer in the Comment box of Bugzilla but it didn't accept either 
my ID or my password; I may have forgotten one of them.

I am using Slimserver 6.5.1 - 10498 - cp1252 on the new Internet Explorer 7 
in two different hard drives, one with Windows XP SP2 and another with the 
latest Windows Vista RC1 upgraded to Vista final. On both, more than one 
line of text is partially covered by the second song on the playlist. It 
could be a problem of my systems and I will check again, but I don't think 
so. Could it be an incompatibility with Explorer 7? I haven't used 
Slimserver with previos Internet Explorer versions.
