Aqua-Soft ForumsI haven some requests for avetunes controls/features that I feel would make it MUCH better:
Shuffle/Repeat:
This would be very useful, since sometimes I want to listen to stuff in order, or mix it up. This would just make avetunes much more convenient.
Each button is actually a button:
I would be really cool, from a skinner and user standpoint, if each hotspot was actually a button with Normal, Hover, and Pressed states. The pause button is already kind of like that, but if the Play, Stop, Mute, Show iTunes, Previous/Next, (and Shuffle/Repeat) buttons were like that too, that would be awesome. Yeah, it would be a little more work, but it would make a skin look so much better.
(If Shuffle/Repeat were implemented, they should have unshuffle and repeat all, one, and none states.
Scrolling Text:
I have made and used a few skins that don't allow enough room for an entire track name, artist name, or album name to be displayed. I know that if you use like the "Artist - Track" or whatever type, then it does, but I think a Scroll long titles (Scroll=1, True | Scroll=0, False) option would be rad.
Extra/Combined Text:
It would be really cool if you could have something like: "Your Heart is an Empty Room by Deathcab for Cutie" in a skin or "Shiny from Castaways and Cutouts by The Decemberists". Or even "iTunes is not open", “iTunes is not playing" or something would be nice.
Also, a visual Avetunes editor/creator would be so cool, we could get a lot of great skins from users that make graphics, but don't know how code skins.
Just my two cents.
