Monkey Rok 6.2 - Updated 06/07/2014

[nohitter151]

I found an easy way to remove the borders in IE, this should work with any skin without having to modify it. See:

I'd prefer to do it without messaging around with IE itself, but thanks for this, I'll certainly take a look.

@OOmatrixOO
Problem with Statistics is known problem in MR5.0.
Trix already has it fixed in his pending MR5.1.

ok thanks for the info.

So... What about my issue? Where it won't show any stats for artists with ' in their name?

AFAIK. That is on the list for 5.1 as well.

As far as I'm aware this is fixed in 5.1, it certainly works for me.

So Guns N' Roses should now work correctly in 5.1.

[gpzbc]

From what I can tell, nothing works when Axl Rose is involved.

[Dreadlau]

Nice one.

[trixmoto]

I'm not planning to fix the borderless issue in the included skins, or at least certainly not for 5.1. If someone else wants to take a look at this for me and send me the skins then I'll definitely include them in a future version though!

[trixmoto]

New version (5.1) is now available to download from my website. Changes include...

- Added context menus hidden on clicking escape key
- Fixed hidden tabs do not re-show correctly
- Fixed track lists in external panels have no context menus
- Added track list in current album now remembers state
- Fixed track list width not 100% (in included skins)
- Fixed some statistics SQL commands not handling null values
- Fixed "similar artists" not showing match as a percentage
- Added "more information" link to track video panel

- Fixed dotted line appears around slider handle once used
- Added debug messaging to the processing of the external panels
- Fixed automatic skin mode to be more intelligent

Still on my list for future versions...

- Add "love this track" to top section [track.love]
- Add "I am attending" to events external panel [event.attend]
- Improving caching of artist/track based external panels

- Add slideshow to artist images panel
- Track videos should use webservice

Thank you so much for your hard work.
I am installing it right now. Do you recommend uninstalling v5.0 first?

[trixmoto]

You shouldn't need to uninstall 5.0 this time, but doing so would remove the unnecessary ".bak" files from a couple of the skin folders.

[Owyn]

Thanks Trix.
I had an installation error the first time I tried the mmip.
Exit MM, Click MMIP to install & start MM. Installation successful this time. Exit & Restart before starting testing.
Note: I have MR disabled on startup.

Stats. Fixed.
External Context Menus. Fixed.
Escape closes context menus. Fixed.
Artist with apostrophe in name. Fixed.

Switched skins to Classic_Tabs.
Funky tab arrangements. Looks good in quick tests.
Tabs show when data available. Ummm. Looks like the tab header is showing but the tabs are not always populated.

Pause to post this note and plan better tests on tabs.

- Removed click on track to play track (from included skins)

Does that mean you can no longer add a track to the Playlist using MonkeyRok with the default skins?
That is a main function that I use it for.
