Two more wishes related to this:

1. Expressions like widthDock="Panel.Height.25" support only panel and album cover type. Can you support block type too?

2. If you use the following:
 
widthDock="Panel.Height.75" width="0" heightDock="Panel.Height.25" height="0"

it draws a square with each side length of "Panel.Height.25". Can you make it draw a non-square rectangle when different values are used?

Bump. I've got ideas about new TM views but can't start without this support.

Also, please support the following requests.

- Currently the only unscalable element in Rdio Style view is "AlbumTracks" type because its child elements only work with fixed values, as in <child id="Title" width="260" />. Not to mention percentage values, even (width-/height-) dock attributes don't work with its child elements. Probably it's not just about AlbumTracks type but child elements in general.

- New onClick functions for "PlayPreviousAlbum" and "PlayNextAlbum" command, which would be useful for album art centered skins.

I will do 1 & 2.
For the album tracks, i can easily add support for % values eg. widthDock="Panel.Width.10"
For "PlayPreviousAlbum" and "PlayNextAlbum", I will do that but it requires an API enhancement so wont be avilable until v3.1

Thanks for the support!

Working great.

It works. But it requires reloading of the skin to display correctly whenever resizing the window.
Also can you support widthDock="x:Panel.80" too for child elements?

To implement just put which track the album cover is for in the id attribute
<element type="AlbumCover" id="Tracks[1]" x="0" y="53" width="80" height="80" brightness="1.0" ></element>
<element type="AlbumCover" id="Tracks[2]" x="0" y="143" width="80" height="80" brightness="1.0" ></element>

This indexed cover works only upto "Tracks[20]". After 20, it returns playing track's album cover. Can you support upto Tracks[50]? It seems other fields are working fine even after 20.

i can do something where the X value used is the parent element location (eg. the AlbumTracks element itself). Would that work for what you have in mind?

these are done apart from the "PlayPreviousAlbum" and "PlayNextAlbum" commands - they can be included but wont function until v3.1

Can you do something about those thick, obtrusive scroll bars in TM panels?

If you support a new attribute for it, it's fine. But I think you could just automate it with much narrower and blend-in colored ones.

i have changed the scrollbar to be narrower and blend in a bit more. Its included in the latest patch build

Thanks! I think it could be blended in a little more, but still a great improvement!

Any chance we could get more options/support for the SpectrumVisualizer? It is a great piece to making the theme a little more dynamic. Stuff like bar width, smoothing(if possible), min height for the bars.

Unless there are some parameters that I can't find anywhere.
