bug report:media library can't double click minimize Panel
« on: July 03, 2025, 02:40:49 AM »
从win95时代一直使用winamp
我曾去下载过winamp最后发布的版本,看到修正了很多问题,但后来发现有一个严重的问题:通过鼠标双击媒体库标题栏无法实现媒体库最小化.个人认为这是严重的问题影响日常使用
于是我回到自己保留的版本v5.666,双击最小化最大化媒体库面板功能正常
今天我头一次使用wacap,x64版本,哇,真不错,winamp是我电脑里最后的x86程序了
但那个双击无法最大化最小化的bug也遗留在wacap身上了
而且我的winamp能看到媒体库面板有最小化按钮,而wacap却没有最小化按钮了,这个皮肤无关,请看附件截图.这也意味着媒体库永远无法最小化了?
希望作者能能修复这个bug
抱歉我是中文用户,使用google 翻译

I have been using winamp since the win95 era.
I once downloaded the last version of winamp and saw that many problems were fixed, but later I found a serious problem: the media library cannot be minimized by double-clicking the media library title bar with the mouse. I personally think this is a serious problem that affects daily use.
So I went back to the version v5.666 that I kept, and the double-click minimize and maximize media library panel functions normally.
Today I used wacap for the first time, the x64 version. Wow, it’s really good. Winamp is the last x86 program in my computer.
But the bug that cannot maximize or minimize by double-clicking also remains in wacap.
And my winamp can see that the media library panel has a minimize button, but wacap has no minimize button. This has nothing to do with the skin. Please see the attached screenshot. Does this also mean that the media library can never be minimized?
I hope the author can fix this bug.
Sorry, I am a Chinese user and use Google Translate

It's not a bug. It was a choice I made many years ago to disable what was a big hack via my jtfe plug-in (which is how 5.666 has such a generic window windowshade mode) that I no longer felt was right to have in wacup. It was skin specific since it only worked with classic / 2.x skins unless modern skins were specifically coded to do it. I currently don't have any intent to re-implement it natively in the wacup core classic skin handling.

那是在太可惜了,媒体库以后只能要么关闭,要么打开,而不是最小化成一条线,不影响桌面空间,只用通过简单的双击来实现.这个操作实在太方便了
因为这个功能我无法接受最新版本的winamp和wacup.只能继续凑合使用我那古老的winamp

That's a shame. The media library can only be closed or opened in the future, instead of being minimized to a line, which does not affect the desktop space, and can be achieved by simply double-clicking. This operation is really convenient. Because of this function, I can't accept the latest version of winamp and wacup. I can only continue to use my old winamp

Consider keep using WACUP, since you seem to like it. How about using the Alt+L keyboard shortcut to open and close the media library window. Some of the skins I use do not have a close button on that window and I had to get used to using the keyboard shortcut (simple and quick).

我真的已经非常习惯或者依赖通过鼠标双击媒体库标题栏实现媒体库最小化,这是很多年形成的.只需要移动鼠标指针到屏幕最上方双击就可以实现,这样比又要抬起另一只手去找快捷键更容易
是的wacup很好,我第一次用就觉得,插件都是全新的,还是x64的.但是媒体库却不能双击最小化
这就像中国有句话说的:鸡肋鸡肋,食之无味,弃之可惜

I've become incredibly accustomed to—or rather, dependent on—minimizing the media library by double-clicking its title bar. It's a habit I've built up over many years. It's so much easier to just flick the mouse pointer to the top of the screen and double-click than it is to lift my other hand to find a keyboard shortcut.
And don't get me wrong, WACUP is fantastic. From the moment I first used it, I was impressed—all new plugins, native 64-bit support. But the fact that I can't double-click to minimize the media library is a huge issue for me.
It reminds me of a Chinese saying about "chicken ribs" (鸡肋): there's not much meat on them, but it feels like a waste to throw them away. That's how I feel here. This one missing feature is tasteless and frustrating, but the rest of the program is too good to give up on.
