My understanding was that playlists or photo albums would be projects themselves. When the project is opened appropriate widgets are displayed. In the case of a playlist the standard audio controls would be shown. I'm not sure how the playlist itself would be shown. I think in the end something very similar to today's audio management applications would have to be created (albeit in a more modular fashion). Listening to music is usually a passive activity. The playlist is formed and playback is started. At this point the list, and even the audio controls, are not required. However, the audio controls need to be within reach as that is what the user usually interacts with. _______________________________________________ Etoile-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/etoile-discuss
