Viewports over Album Art...

[Angyman]

I tried now several things without success and wanted to know if someone else found a workaround:

Case: Draw Text at the position of the Album Art if no album art is found...

Problem: I get only scrolling lines drawn (if they actually scroll... the pure %s definition is not sufficient)

Why: Very small Screen... Would like to enjoy album art very big if possible otherwise draw text with different fonts = different viewports. As far as i know theres not yet any possibility to define viewports in conditionals which would solve this entirely

[Hweb21]

You mean one viewport or two (one for album art and one for text)

With one viewport define the album art in the text viewport

Code: [Select]

%V|11|25|136|73|1|B8B8B8|000000|
%al%s%?C<%m|51|%?it<%it|%fn>|%?it<%it|%fn>>
%al%s%?C<%m|51|%?ia<%ia|Unknown Artist>|%?ia<%ia|Unknown Artist>>
%al%s%?C<%m|51|%?id<%id|Unknown Album>|%?id<%id|Unknown Album>>
%al%s%?C<%m|51|%?id<%?iy<%iy|%fc>|%fc>|%?id<%?iy<%iy|%fc>|%fc>>%ar%pp/%pe
%Cl|0|0|sc50|sc50|
%?C<%C|>

The font is 12pt, I see if you use two viewports then I can see the overlaping issue or if the text viewport is too small to fit the album art in.

Yes the margin trick works i know but doesnt allow different fonts sizes ;-(
Already tried that... but like you mentioned the overlapping viewports are the problem.

[linuxstb]

No, there's no way to do what you want, but I would like there to be...

I'm still thinking about how to handle conditionals and viewports.

[Angyman]

So i'll wait and hope

In older custom builds before viewports were in svn.  the viewports were see through and I could have multiple in the same area solving this problem, now it covers up, why is that?

linuxstb told me it was a bug.
