[Script] Line Scroller

[KreAch3R]

The current release of Cobolt includes a working lyrics skin FROM THE EARLIER VERSION of this script. You can tinker with that. Play a song, click the musical note, read & scroll lyrics (not all songs have lyrics). I'm still having issues with the new versions not scrolling at all...

Thanks Seahorse, I just tried it and understood it's use. Amazing work on the Cobolt theme, btw. Congrats.

Apologies for the slow replies I was knocked off my motorcycle doing 60 mph or so and bounced down the road, I got out of hospital late yesterday and just had a sleepless & rather uncomfortable night. The bruising ought to be epic in the next few days though...

Can you please package your current skin so that I can try and see what's going on.

Here it is:

Thanks for the kind words, it is nice to receive them from other skin writers like yourself it's been a long incremental process, and with masses of support from Smurfier, JSMorely, Poiru, & Jobu to but name a few, apologies if I missed you but I have a headache, tinitus, feel sick and like a punch-bag Mike Tyson took his rage out on presntly. I've learnt loads, but the pleasure I get from looking at and tinkering with them is phenomenal fun and to be honest I can't believe how well they have evolved.

Glad you are ok Seahorse.

Thanks, doing better than my watch...

It's working fine for me, you just have it backwards.

Code: Select all

[MeterPageUp]
Meter=BUTTON
ButtonImage=#ROOTCONFIGPATH#\Images\PrevButton.png
X=380
Y=180
LeftMouseUpAction=!CommandMeasure "MeasureLua" "Scroll(-PROPERTIES.Lines)"

[MeterScrollUp]
Meter=BUTTON
ButtonImage=#ROOTCONFIGPATH#\Images\VolUpButton.png
X=r
Y=R
LeftMouseUpAction=!CommandMeasure "MeasureLua" "Scroll(-1)"

[MeterScrollDown]
Meter=BUTTON
ButtonImage=#ROOTCONFIGPATH#\Images\VolDnButton.png
X=r
Y=R
LeftMouseUpAction=!CommandMeasure "MeasureLua" "Scroll(1)"

[MeterPageDown]
Meter=BUTTON
ButtonImage=#ROOTCONFIGPATH#\Images\NextButton.png
X=r
Y=R
LeftMouseUpAction=!CommandMeasure "MeasureLua" "Scroll(PROPERTIES.Lines)"

EDIT: I apologize, I had it backwards on the first post.

[Seahorse]

Aha, Then I can finish off adding the new buttons...

[KreAch3R]

Thank God you are ok, Seahorse. IMHO, you should lay down and watch movies or something, your rainmeter code and keyboard will still be there when you 're feeling better. I wish you a speedy recovery.

Thank you for your great script! It's very helpful for displaying lyrics.
Is it possible to have an Unicode display? Without your script, Unicode characters are displaying correctly. Using it, the Unicode characters are replaced by ?.
Could it be possible to implement a scrollbar without too much difficulties?

Unfortunately, Lua just doesn't handle unicode characters.

Ok thank you. It's a little disappointing.
Do you have an idea for the scrollbar (just a clue, I would like to know if it is not too much difficult)?
Edit: I succeed myself in adding a scrollbar thanks to the plugin Scroller
