This will make SDT work as it does today but if you use the Custom Clock to display the information you could configure it by either using the individual items or using the preconfigured "line1" and "line2" items.
In Custom Clock I use keywords like "%line1" to indicate that I want something to be replaced by the "line1" attribute value. Very easy to implement you just just iterate through all attributes in the hash and do a search and replace of "%<attribute name>" to the <attribute value>. If you decide to make third party configuration available through the SDT interface, maybe you could do the same, so you let the user configure what he like to shown on line1, for example: "%from %subject" in my mail scenario. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77864 _______________________________________________ jive mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/jive
