http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1920Fixed7. The ability to link an image to a variable, like if value of genre = country image then value of %genre image% becomes
skin://cowboyhat.png or value of rating= pg-13, image is pg-13 ,png etc.
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=19993Not Fixed8. I would really really LIKE if when I filter by artist or song it returns the album the song is on, with coverart and additional songs. NOT just a various albums with the one track listed. I HATE that. It is important to me to know what albums have what songs. I have no problem opening the album and selecting the song I just searched for from the track list.

http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... light=3181Not Fixed17. I wish the event editor was connected to the skin editor, or even separate like hitting f3 or scroll lock would open it independently.
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Not Fixed18. A graphical volume bar for master volume would be nice.
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Not Fixed19. I wish Xlobby would ignore “A” and “The” for filters

http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Fixed via plugin only21. I would like an event called category: goto start of. The values would be a-z, 0-9, # and some special cases like period for start and double period for end of category. This event would let us create buttons to jump to the page where the value specified starts.

http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Better26. I want to cntrl click buttons in the skin itself to select.
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Not Fixed27. It would be nice if hidden buttons were not navigate able until they are shown
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Not Fixed28. Finishing date triggers would be great, or removing them all together
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... highlight=Not Fixed29. I would like to specify drop shadow colors and opacity for resources

http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1811Not Fixed38. I would like to be able to have remote buttons control either events depending on page. Play on music page plays music; play on movie page plays movies etc.
http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1373Fixed with Xremote plugin 39. I would like an event called category: goto entry with inputs category name, field, and value. This is like goto startof or filter or custom searches, except this event would let us create buttons to jump to the page where the entry specified starts.
Not Fixed
40. I would like a checkbox or something for categories called continued. If selected then it would add a button instead of category entry for the last visible entry in the category. The button could be specified on the where we choose top layer, selector, etc. Here we would pick an image, text, or resource and get to assign an event (usually next page). If a category such as playlist, or albumdetails has multiple pages then the continue button would show up at the bottom of the entries. It could read more… or next or whatever but still be contained in the category. If the category list was short than it would be visible. Ideal for album tracks!

41. I would like to be able to make a category selector image bigger than the entry ratio itself. Right now the largest the image can be is due to the spacing of the category. I would like it if there was a selector image checkbox called expansive that would be the size of the button literally. And if it overlapped other category entries, Good. It would just center in the center of the category.
Mostly Fixed, better
42. I think there should be new things for Xlobby besides, categories, buttons, images, variables, and text. I would suggest a new thing called menus. A menu would be like a category in almost every way. Except it would have a menu editor, instead of a database editor. Here you would populate fields, set displays, and link to a skin button or resource. Then you could add enter, press, or exit events for menu items. Several skins already use databases and categories to make menus. Its overkill in my opinion. The menu xmls would save separate places then the database, or page xmls. Menus would also be able to use variables for display, (ie. Audioplayer Nowplaying, plugin>weather>today….)
43. I think there should be new things for Xlobby besides, categories, buttons, images, variables, and text. I would suggest a new thing called containers. containers would be valuable for show hide or toggling off/ on for a group of items. A container would be one a group of variables, buttons, categories or whatever that is all “grouped” together as one. You could use one show/hide event for the container then for all. You could also use containers to expand info that doesn’t need to always be shown. Basically it would be a multiselected group of items, under one name. 44. I want fader and balance controls for winamp’s equalizer.
Not Fixed45. I would like to have and event set button id
Not Fixed46. I would like an event called set button event. So we can set events on the fly or change events per button from within the skin.
Not Fixed47. I want a multiple select from the button list in the skin editor, maybe hold cntrl or something.
Not Fixed48. I want the ability to rotate images and buttons.
Not Fixed49. I would like a scrolling text only on enter state of a category or button.
Not Fixed50. I would like to have a windowed photo slideshow. Make a box in the skin and call its id: slideshow
Not Fixed51. I would like to have the ability to set the horizontal as well as vertical spacing of the cover art, instead of just an overall percentage.
Not Fixed, better52. Fixed with workaround53. I would like image or resource masks. That is if an image is behind a rounded rectangle mask, then the image would only show where the mask was. Coverart would be a good example. You could round the corners but never change the actual image. Also you could have buttons that weren’t always a rectangle footprint this way.
Not Fixed54. It would be nice to have transition animations for overlays.
Not Fixed55. I would like to revamp the skin editor to make it more cognitive and user friendly. I would recommend a matrix style tab system so you don’t with out redundancy.
Not Fixed56. I would like the resource manager revamped. Less clicking and easier to create, copy, and maintain.
Not Fixed57 I wish I could download skins from within Xlobby.
Not FixedThanx
