SliMP3 display problem when center element defined
Last modified: 2009-07-31 10:20:45 UTC
When the display element hash is returning an array for center, then the line elements don't show any more. Easily reproduceable with MusicInfoSCR :-)
Yes this is a limitation of the render routine in S:D:Text Is this a real problem as it needs more work to support lines as well. I think I made it center + overlay to support the alarm symbol but prior to that I'm not sure it supported anything other than center on its own? Probably not too hard to include lines too but it won't scroll
I doubt this is a serious issue. It's a MusicInfoSCR user who reported this, as MIS returned ['', '', ''] instead of [undef, undef, undef] for center. Thus the lines didn't show, only overlays. If it's an easy fix this would be great. Otherwise I'll add a note (or workaround) to the plugin's "documentation".
I looked at it again and the fix is not trivial, but is possible. I suggest we document it as a limitation for the moment..
Where should this documentation go?
Turns out it is already documented!!! "<p><b>Text Displays (Slimp3/Squeezebox):</b></p> <p>In two line mode overlays are displayed. If center exists for a line then this takes precedence over line such that only the centered text and overlay are displayed.</p>" Display documentation is in server/HTML/EN/html/docs/display.html and appears under the technical information section of the help menu.
> Turns out it is already documented!!! Wow... thanks! It's a bug in MIS then :-)
