Hi,
I'm working on a new plugin "MPonlineMixes". With the plugin you can search for mp3-mixes in a sound-cloud portal that returns results with relevant info about the mix (genre, artist, title, picture...). If you click on a result the mix is played. The plugin works, gets the content, but I cannot display it properly the way I want.
The idea is to show the content in tabular-layout like this:
Mix-Title - artist - genre - link to the mix (hidden) and a picture
Mix2-Title - artist - genre - link to the mix (hidden) and a picture
Mix3-Title - artist - genre - link to the mix (hidden) and a picture
Did some tests with listcontrol examples from the wiki but I just can't get it right. In liscontrol you can use label,label2 and label3, but I don't know how to position them to get them aligned in table-form, they always overlap. Or maybe there's an easier way to show the content in a table. Can someone give me an example of the code and the corresponding XML? The wiki doesn't really help me here.
Also about the X,Y positions and offset, the integers used are based on what? What is the minimum, maximum value based on, where can I find this value. For the moment I have to position controls by means of trial and error, try some values, check the output on the screen... I don't think this is the way to do it, right ? So tips about "proper positioning" are much appreciated
Thanks
