WinCab 3.1.4 beta available

LHUPA:
Dear Chris,

I'm very glad to know that WINCAB/DOSCAB goes to BETTER and BETTER! - I will download it at this time if it is available to download. So, I have downloaded all of your previous versions, tested and compared them from the first edition to the last and the progress is stunning! I have remarked that your first version is very difficult to use but the background image is near crystal clear: A remarkable image clarity that all other ones don't have! - I have two suggestions for you in your upcomming versions: The possibility to have the option for replacing the traditional WINCAB'S song title display for one with the selection number (or code) instead the title, the artist, duration ect. for create a more "real" jukebox ex.: RECORD PLAYING: C 4, A 0 ect. And other one: The possibility to build (instead a two digits one like today) a three digits selection system as the 70's Seeburg jukeboxes because I plan to build three digits numeric skins as soon as your WINCAB/DOSCAB can offer this possibility!



Congratulations... Chris!
Continue!!! Your software is very
little in size but it's very BIG!

Any chance I can try out the new "Steelfish" font?   

If Autoflip is set, does that disable the screensaver, or does the ss keep running as usual?

Chris:
Steelfish has only one real purpose: it's for the label that shows the address of the song (A1, 015, etc).  It is too tall and narrow to use for label fonts.  I'm working on a feature to specify the locations of addresses on skins so now if you change a skin from alphanumeric to numeric you won't have to change the background image.  However, Steelfish will go in all the CD skins for the disc number, it looks great there.

You can see Steelfish at http://penguinfonts.com/fontinfo.php?id=4422 and Steelfish Bold at http://penguinfonts.com/fontinfo.php?id=3767 .  I think they look perfect for jukebox address labels.  You can download them from those pages.

To see what these look like, try changing these lines in CD4-1.skn:

CDAddressFont = steelfis.ttf
CDAddressFontColor = lightblue

nice font, but im guessing i cant use it for the displays?  :cry:

i was originally using the jbsans, but it will not display in all caps anymore (unless i retag every song to caps), and the jblcd doesnt look very good on the old lcd monitor i want to use

Chris:
Ah, I knew I was forgetting something... I'll add a setting to force displays to uppercase.
