The main panel view.

Post by crawdad63 »

Two things I'd like to see for the Main Panel, the ability to put the visualizations there and the ability to manipulate the color of it and also the font color as well. While I'm dreaming big how about the ability to change the font itself.

Visualization can be shown in the full MediaMonkey window (but no other windows are shown) by maximizing it.

Skins control fonts and colors, so you may want to switch to a Skin that's more to your liking (Monkey Groove allows customization of color) under Tools > Options > Skins or find additional Skins here: https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... 1/skins-1/

Seriously, you didn't give a straight answer. My request was about changing the color of the body of MM5 ie. the main frame and the two side frames. I think that was clear. Monkey groove doesn't it do that. Also WHY does the font have to be controlled by the skin. It would make more sense to have it customizable.

Also having the visualizations in the main view while putting having other windows (now playing and artwork for example) showing is more what I'm thinking about.

As mentioned in another thread you need to update to the latest 5.0.2 Build, you're still using an older one.

It would be very helpful if the font size could be changed/scaled like it was possible in MM4. MM5 data text is too small and if I change my overall Windows scaling higher the menus for all my other applications is too large.
In Microsoft applications I can change the size of the data text independently of the menu text - that is what MM needs. Menu text is OK to be small as I don't need to read it carefully, but data text needs to be larger to allow for editing and to tell the difference between 'i, l, 1' for example
As it is MM5 unusable without increasing Window scaling which is not a viable permanent work around.

Material Design on 2513 already allows you to set it to display size large (it's a global change in MediaMonkey though).
