Hello, I've seen some people that wanted skjukebox 3.0 because they find it more
stable, but couldn't use it because of the missing "R" in the onscreen
keyboard.
So here's how to fix it.
(I don't want to attach the exe file, since I'm not the author...)
the tough part is to find where to do the modification,
then it's only a matter of changing the "E" for an "R"
Here's the steps (it only take a minute if you're familiar with a binary
editor such as UltraEdit-32)
1. backup the original skjukebox.exe (in case you screw something up...)
2. Open the file with a binary editor (ex: UltraEdit-32)
3. Go at address 2EEF0h (hexadecimal byte address) and change the "E"
(code=45) for "R" (code=52)
4. save the file.
That's it.
Give it a try and look at your fixed Onscreen Keyboard.
I've included some snapshot to illustrate the fix...

Mightbeen I should create a little "unofficiel" patch the exe with the little typo bug? Cant se any problem about it, since the author have (to been sad) leaved the project with few bugs left (here one of them unofficiel fixed).
I have also tried to have the felling with same controls in MultiJuke (Jukebox GUI), since I really like Sk-Jukebox too.

I notice that when using the "Find" function the bottom boxes are cut off almost making the feature useless. Would be nice if someone can fix that. :cheers:

Do you want me to send you the patched binary or did you patched it on your side?

In what resolution are you running at?
SKjukebox doesn't scale the on-screen keyboard / find screen / list screen.
So if you're running at low res like 800x600, some boxes are too big to fit in the screen...
This is too hard to fix without the source code which is unavailable...

I'm running it at 1024x768 full screen. The find function appears the same way it does in your screenshot. (without the taskbar of course)

yep!
it's because skjukebox doesn't scale the on-screen keyboard and menu based on the screen resolution.
When I tried it on my PC my res was 1280x1024 on which the FIND menu with the on-screen keyboard fit in the screen. I tried it at 1024x768 and get the same problem as you ... you can't access the bottom boxes...
As I said, without the source code, that one is almost impossible to fix...

PS: I'll have the same problem on my cab since I'm running at 800x600 (TVO) :cry:

Think you could find the size for "album screensaver" and make it the size of v4? BTW, great work!!!
