    Hi all,

    ..yes work is in Progress.
    I´m working at the moment on some improvements for the views.
    Bavarian has made some special code inside mp for that, so that i can show now the titles inside the item gfx in the thumbsviews.
    So that the skin looks similar to the mockups i have made. :)

    I´m working now on a new filmstripview , something in the style of coverflow. :)
    For that i need also some special code ;)

    I hope i can show you some real screenshots next week ;)

    Greetings Harley

    Does your filmstripview require XAML and .Net3 to work?

    Cover flow is that when the covers comes from the top insted of the side ?
    This i have planed to make in my spinsafe skin for weeks but what i could understand that was´t possible.

    I would also be very nice to be able to show description and other database information in filmstrip view too.

    EDIT: Added screen. This is a VERY quick muckoup how i would like the filmstripview to work. Or it could be a brand new view :)
    And yes its cut and pased from dirent screens so never mind the backgrund around the controlls.

    Coverflow is a view used in the latest itunes, basically it shows all your albums in a more 3d like way and it lets you 'flip' between albums...
    Here is a vid to show exactly what it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6NJNiIWxdE

    Hi all,

    i can not do a real coverflow in mp, because i´m not a programmer.
    The view i make for the face skin is a filmstripview that will have the style of the coverflow.

    Problem in mp is that we can not change the perspektive of the thumbs. In coverflow the thumbs are showing perspektive in the room.
    So i has do some gfx tricks for reproduce the style of it.
    But it will not be the same cool thing like original coverflow.
    But i hope it will be much nicer then the old filstripview ;) :)

    Greetings Harley :)
