I want a label to show the current winamp song etc. that's not a problem, but when winamp is closed, there's no text and i have an empty ugly box sitting on my desktop. i don't want the box to dissapear. instead i would like if the label displayed some other text like "Winamp is offline" or sth like that. is this possible and if it is then how?

with the one.dll you can detect if winamp is running or not
!One [class][title][not found command][found command][active command]

create 2 labels (one with the amp title and the other with something else) of course same sized and positioned ;)
than you can create with mzscript two small scripts for "found" and "not found" which toggles between the 2 labels. sounds harder than it is :)



its the easyest way :)



uh, or what is better, to use one label and two scripts:



why to I alwys think around 10 edges when it's sometimes to easy :)

thnx, i was thinking about something similar, but that !One bang checks only once if winamp is running.
it must be put in a loop and that's not nice if there's an infinite loop running in the background.
isn't there an event-handle or sth which is activated when winamp is run? like OnWinampInit and OnWinampClose?

/me pets jAmpToo for being smart enough to know if WinAmp is open or not :)

yup, but can't it be done with label or dynamp? somehow?

ok, for loop checking, use your labels (mouse enter) and/or ckhotsports.dll.

oh well, i guess i'll go back to the good old jAmpToo :)

the "classic" solution is to use literunner.dll though ;)

wow, i like literunner :) thnx ilmcuts. but i think i'll stick to jamptoo. but maybe... ;)

Better use literunner so you can show/hide amptitlelabel, amptimelabel, sliders, ampbuttons, resize your box/bar... do EXACTLY what you want.
I think it's the best "Litesteper" way :)
...like under *nix, you have alot of SMALL tools which allow you to do BIG jobs
