Thanks Trix.

But I think you should check your calendar again.

[trixmoto]

Haha, ooops!

Thank you very much!
I can confirm that tooltips are working correctly again.
And I'm excited to play with the new options when I get a chance!

[gpzbc]

New version (5.9) is now available to download from my website. Changes include...

- Fixed tooltips not appearing
- Fixed playlist pages not linked correctly
- Added option to exclude track listing
- Added option to show top albums page
- Added option to display album details

I'm curious, what criteria is used for the "top albums"? It appears to be recently added, but I'm wondering what time period that includes.

Duh... I just scrolled down on the "Top Albums" page and found that there are a number of criteria for "top Albums." Sorry for being dense. But I'm still curious about the specific criteria that is used for Top Albums.

On another note, can you add <Genre> to the Album Info Mask, along with the ability to insert a break (<br>) into the next version?

Thanks again for this update and for implementing the Top Albums feature. I really like it.

[trixmoto]

It will display at 5 albums in each of the three sections, unless you have specified a larger number of albums per row, in which case it will use that number.

I'll look at adding <Genre> to the album masks in the next version, but you should be able to use <br> anyway.

I wonder if it would be a big deal to have the option to show more than 5 albums total? I currently have it set to 4 albums per row. So I get 4 albums in one row, and then 1 album in the next row. Personally, I would love to be able to show something like my 20 most recent albums, my top 10 played albums, and my top 10 rated albums.

I'll look at adding <Genre> to the album masks in the next version, but you should be able to use <br> anyway.

Thanks! Hmm.... I tried <br> but it didn't work. I'll have to give it another whirl.

As always, thanks so much for your hard work. I know there are a lot of MM users who are very grateful.

Is there a way (probably playing with the css file) to show all albums without spaces between them when I choose not to display artwork?

Right now it looks like this :

Album 1


Album 2


Album 3


But I'd rather have:

Album 1
Album 2
Album 3


Any quick fix?

Thanks!

[trixmoto]

Probably not, it's built in a table structure. You might be able to minimise the gap using css on the table, but I think there'll always be some gap.

I am new to this. How do I get it to work. It is installed thanks to the solution to error install. But how do I generate the report?? MM3.2; Windows Vista

I had this same problem tonight. After Trixmoto's post, I looked around. The script is not on the Scripts.ini list, nor in the auto folder. I manually added to Scripts.ini to make it show up, though I haven't played with it yet.

Trix,
I upgraded to 5.9 and attempted to generate a report. The script threw an error at line 1377 indicating object ‘comp’ not being defined.
I took a quick look at line 1377 which attempted to use the comp object and discovered that the object wasn’t defined until line 1796 with ‘Dim comp : Set comp = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")’

I removed code at 1796 and inserted it at line 1312 because it looked like a safe point that preceded line 1377. This got me past the error and allowed for the report to be generated.

I’m sure there is a better place for the object to be defined, but hopefully this helps isolate the bug for a future fix.
Everything seems to work and I think the new functionality is great.

Your work is amazing. Thanks for sharing it with the community.

Thanks for the detailed report - must be some code I moved around in the latest version.

Advanced report doesn't show up. Restarted MM after installing your script as is needed. Investigating after reading the last few pages from people.
