nice work -- I've switched to it, after using Marquee for maybe 6 months or so. The only problem with Marquee was that scroll didn't pause.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it.  ;D

I'm not sure what controls the scroll. I used code from the example in the manual.  While using the uisimulator, I occasionally run into title's of songs or albums which continually scroll across the screen, but I haven't figured out what triggers that behavior. Usually it scrolls right to left, pauses, then scrolls left to right.

Scrolling is user-configuable (as explained in the manual...)

Thanks for the tip -- I've been playing with it, but can't come up with a reproducible example of what I was seeing. To be clear, it was that bidirectional scrolling had no pause, but rather reversed instantly.

Hi, I did some more testing of the theme and wanted to offer a few more suggestions. You have your code return "Artist?" for when there isn't data for the Artist information and such:

--- Code: ---%al %s%ac%?ia%ar
%al %s%ac%?id%ar
%al %s%ac%?it%ar
--- End code ---

One cool idea I've found is that you can have it give the file name and directory names when the meta data information isn't available:

--- Code: ---%s%ac%?ia
%s%ac%?id%?iy< (%iy)|>
%s%ac%?it
--- End code ---
I don't claim credit for the logic of that system, I grabbed it from another wps that I had used back on the Archos. I just took that section and then changed a bit here and there for what I wanted. There might be some messed up logic in it. But it works great for what I need.

If you look at This page, these are the tools that is being used by the codebock:

--- Code: ---%fm File Name
%fn File Name (without extension)
%d1 First directory from end of file path.
%d2 Second directory from end of file path.
%d3 Third directory from end of file path.
--- End code ---
