Yes, and it also helps if you detach that tab you want to keep an eye on, and place it elsewhere on the screen.

I'm looking for someone to do French translations for Songbook. So if anyone knows someone who could help with that, please contact me .

When I said "one more chat tab" I meant one more than the current limit. Chat tabs are not unlimited. You start with 3 (General, Combat, and IM)and you can add up to 2 more tabs.

I red in the german forums, that you maybe will implement a localisation check in one of your next versions?
Maybe you can make use of the Getlocale function:
Turbine.Engine:GetLocale()

This will return a string: "de", "fr" or "en"

Maybe this Workaround from Vindar for the localisation ,. Bug may help you too as you also save window positioning data:

I have a version coming up that works with German clients. However, I'm doing the locale detection in a different way. GetLocale doesn't quite function as you describe. It returns windows locale (I think), not the client language version.

You shouldn't need the localization fix from Vindar with the new version either. Stay tuned .

Wow, quick reply ;-)
I just downloaded the Lotro Beta Lua Documentation and there Turbine.Engine:GetLocale() is described as:
"Gets a string identify the locale the application is set to."

If this is not the case, it must be another bug ;-)
The really weird thing is: If you use a german client on an english windows (or even a german windows with an english number formatting), everything goes well. If you use the german number formatting in windows AND the german client, you have the ,<->. bug
oh... that's how I understand this now... ;-)

Just have to say: I really like your addon! Thanks for and all your work on it!

One last idea - Is it possible or do you think it would make sense...:
Directly displaying the 1st track name behind the Filename?

E.g.: ABCFilename -- ABC Track name

Cause.. I have many abc files that only have numbers as filenames (1, 2, ...). I have to click on every file, to see what it is
Yes I know, I could change the filename... ;-)

Instant email notification ftw .

I'm not sure if it's a bug, but as far as I know it reports Windows locale. For example, for me it returns 'fi' and I'm using EN client. So it's not that useful really. Someone from Germany could use EN client and that method would still return 'de'.

Yes it seems that to reproduce this you have to set German locale AND use German client. So it's a bit bothersome to troubleshoot .

Thanks!

I guess it would be possible. Or add a tooltip to display the track name. But, on the other hand renaming songs might have other positive effects as well :P.

Not works, when i have 10500 ABC files no error messages just get a 2.3mB SongbookData.plugindata

(tried to reduce to 3k files, but still 2.3mb SongbookData.plugindata and still not works. )

Will it have a Search function?

Chiran

Haha, I have to admit that I haven't tested it with that many files . I think the most I tried was around 4000 files and a 900 kB data file. Are there even that many abc files in the world hehe. I guess I can have a look at it again, but there's probably not much that I can do.

Thanks for the heads up though!

Hm, search.. I will put that under consideration.

P.S. Next version has a tiny bit more compact data format, but it probably doesn't help. And since it has to be in the Lua script format, there's not much room to wiggle.

It turned out to be nasty data in one of the files. Fixed in the next release .

Hi!

I have copy the plugin into my plugin folder and use the vindarpatch for the germen client. Next i use the songbook.hta file to generate my songs, but if i go into the game, the songbook interface is invisible (i have load it with the plugin manager). I see the hover message about the buttons (Start, Sync) but i dont the everything. Where is the problem?

Chiran

Songbook is not yet compatible with German clients. But I will release a new version today (I hope) which will work without the Vindar patch.
