I've been trying to tweek the script-XBMC_Lyrics-main.xml to show less lines of lyrics, yet keep the current orange lyric line centered, but have been unsuccessful. When I shorten the vertical height of the window the lyrics are in, it simply moves the current line up. What am I missing?

which code you modified?

First I modified the musicvisualization.xml for the skin, but then realized the lyric script file was probably what i needed to mod. But I still could not get less lines of lyrics, while keeping the orange current lyric line centered vertically.

Try modify <itemlayoutIn> and <focusedlayout> in <control type="list" id="110"> in file script-XBMC_Lyrics-main.xml

Yeah, I'd been playing with those already but though I've done a bit of code mods over the years, nothing I do keeps the current lyric from moving to the very bottom of the lyric list, not staying close to the middle. I have to admit I feel I'm missing something really simple here.

Here is my code, using the Aeon MQ4 skin. If you don't have that skin, I can change the fonts to Confluence. Greatly appreciate your help.

Code:

        <posy>534</posy>
        <width>869</width>
        <height>105</height>

            <visible>Control.HasFocus(110)</visible>
          </control>
      </focusedlayout>
  </control>

Just need modify number of <itemlayout height="xx"> and <focusedlayout height="xx">, don't change <posx> and others.

update to v1.4.8
add MiniLyrics scraper to get lrc lyrics from MiniLyrics Lyrics site.

Changing that code simple modifies the line-height (spacing) between the lyric lines.
When <itemlayout height="20"> and <focusedlayout height="20"> I get this: http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/1659/sc...ot000l.png

When <itemlayout height="30"> and <focusedlayout height="30"> I get this: http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/2730/...001uof.png

This orange line of lyrics is the third or so in the song, but I want to still be able to see the previous lines of lyrics. I'm pulling my hair out.

Here is my full script-XBMC_Lyrics-main.xml file.

BTW, thanks for keeping this add-on updated. I love it.

UPDATE: I shifted my attention to the Confluence version and removed everything that displays but the lyrics, and here is that file. As that file has a lyric window of 200 px high, the current lyric line is properly centered vertically, but if I decrease that window to 100, the current line is stuck at the top.

Ah, this because I set it to last four line in program. Not set in XML file.

So, in other words, there is a sort of minimum lyric window height to keep the current lyric line centered?

I'll try to change the code to calculate the center line, not use fixed line number.

Excellent! I'll stay tuned. Thanks.
