Isaac, can you apply these patches? I'm still stuck in windows hell. :-(

There will be! However, I need to finish up a few other things before I can
write the Howto. Maybe early next week.

Yes, that's possible, but no I won't have time to do it. Its not all that
tough -- go to Control.cpp and look for BlitFrame() that function blits a
frame from a control onto a canvas. No rocket science here. Take that
function and create a vertical version of it.
In the XML it would be best to specify it like this:
<ControlBitmap Rect="0,34,127,67" Name="Buttons" Style="Vert"/>
Making the XML changes for this is trivial. If you create the
BlitFrameVertical() and have the ButtonControl::ButtonControl() take a bool
bVertical argument, which is used to either call BlitFrame() or
BlitFrameVertical() then I will make the xml changes and accept the patch.
3. Does anyone know how to make something like ButtonControl, but without
pressing. Something like ControlLabel.
Something that looks more like a button, but you can't click on it? Does it
have static text or a bitmap in it? I'm not quite certain what you're out
for. However, it is easy to create controls -- the controls are finite state
machine, and the control defines which states it uses and which transitions
it wants to know about. Then the control needs to listen to the transition
and take the proper blttting or text drawing action in response to the state
change. Once you grok what's going on its easy. I think this is one of the
things that allowed me to write this theme interface so quickly...
4. Generally what is the format of the Rect-s? "x1,y1,x2,y2" or
"x1,y1,lx,ly"
x1,y2,x2,y2, where x2 and y2 are inclusive.

Subject: linux patches for 2.0
Hi!
These are 2 little patches.
1st is because it didn't find my themes, because if it did not find
themes at the first place it looked for, it stoped to look at the other
places. Now it goes on.
2nd is because I'm working on a WinAmp Theme, in wich I use ChangeWindow.
The old one always put the new window to (0,0). Now it puts to the right
place.
And some questions:
1. It was a lot of time for me to get the theme.xml's things out from the
code. There should be a howto for it!
2. Is it possible in the not so far future to make some features in the
xml format? This is what I'd need: Somehow I need to tell freeamp, that
the buttons I us (from the winamp skin) are not in horizontal, but
vertical order.
It could be like: <ButtonControl Name="n" Direction="Vertical">
Or the best would be if it's more general! For example:
<Controls DefaultDirection="V" First="Normal" Second="Pressed">
This way people could use skins where isn't button for OnMousOver.
3. Does anyone know how to make something like ButtonControl, but without
pressing. Something like ControlLabel.
4. Generally what is the format of the Rect-s? "x1,y1,x2,y2" or
"x1,y1,lx,ly"
