Internally it's 0-100, but all the code/plugins I've seen do it in increments of 20. Anyway, in v0.7.7 I've added a slider in the rating menu which increments by 10

But since it's better from a usability point of view, and the LMS menu then opens normally to the right, this is changed in v0.7.7 I won't re-size the search box, though, since ppl had issues with the width of the controls fitting into the browser window. The box has about 9 characters visible, and isn't constraint in length of the input - you can continue typing if your search term is longer. > > 3.

That's probably possible, but I hadn't have a look at how lyrics are handled. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Roland0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56808 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98186 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
