I added a peek_at_playlist
keybinding that will work like you described.
Wow that was fast, thanks.
Is possible to use playlist_display_timeout
when peek_at_playlist
is set/used?
Also key_playfile
does not seem to work using peek_at_playlist
keybinding.
I added a
peek_at_playlist
keybinding that will work like you described.
How to bind this via Script messages?
Thanks.

You can't, since it's a complex keybinding that measures key down and up. Script messages cannot do that as far as I know.

I was considering this, but doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose? Why would you want the playlist to disappear while holding down the peek button?
Also key_playfile does not seem to work using peek_at_playlist keybinding.
This is a bit tricky since any other key press executes the peek key up event, which actually unbinds the playfile key before it is executed. But I figured out a hack how to do it with dynamic binds. I added a tiny delay to removing the keybinds, which lets the interrupting key execute it's command first. In this case key_playfile
. If you interrupt with a navigation key it will take over playlist rendering from the peek and be as if it was toggled on normally. This hack might cause some weird edgecases so let me know if it doesn't work as expected.

I see. I'd like to use it with Natural-Harmonia-Gropius/InputEvent, not sure if that's possible.
Interesting script. I added script events for peek. If I understand their documentation correctly you could:
RIGHT script-message-to playlistmanager peek_open #@press
RIGHT script-message-to playlistmanager peek_close #@release

I want that the playlist disappear when peek_at_playlist
key is released and after playlist_display_timeout
is reached.
Also
key_playfile
does not seem to work usingpeek_at_playlist
keybinding.This is a bit tricky. I can't make it work for both
dynamic_binds=true
anddynamic_binds=false
. Which one do you use? I could make it work for that one.The idea would be to either:
* Do not bind keys during peek, but bind the same key you would use for `key_playfile` as `playlist-next` in input.conf. This way the bind would still work while peeking. * Bind keys during peek, but require `dynamic_binds=false` to use keys while peeking
There might be some trick to delay the unbinding of keys when peek is released by another key press. I need to experiment a bit.
The idea was to navigate and use the playlist while holding peek_at_playlist
keybind.
But dynamic_binds=false
do the job correctly, thanks.

Do you mean:
I feel like both are a bit unexpected behaviours for a hold down button.

I changed it a bit. Should work with dynamic binds now too. See my edited comment above for details.
Do you mean:
1. hide it after peek is released, but at the very least display it for the playlist_display_timeout duration?
Yes, this one.

Ok.
Interesting script. I added script events for peek.
Thank you. I had to use script-message
instead of script-message-to
to get it to work though (if you want to add it to the README
for example). I used the following to achieve what I wanted:
KEY script-message playlistmanager peek_open #@click
KEY script-message playlistmanager peek_open #@repeat
KEY script-message playlistmanager peek_close #@release
KEY
once, the playlist is toggled foreverKEY
pressed, the playlist is displayedKEY
, the playlist is closed.Do you mean:

I added an optional setting to make it work like this peek_respect_display_timeout
.
Sorry @xfzv I changed the playlist messages to be more generic because I noticed the "peek_show" is same as "show playlist". So the below bindings should work for you.
KEY script-message playlistmanager show playlist #@click
KEY script-message playlistmanager show playlist #@repeat
KEY script-message playlistmanager close #@release

The following no longer works as expected after updating:
KEY script-message playlistmanager show playlist #@click
Before, when pressing KEY
once, the playlist would be toggled indefinitely. Now, it disappears after 15~20 seconds. Tried with both peek_respect_display_timeout=no
and peek_respect_display_timeout=yes
but it doesn't make any difference.
Oh right that is true. You should be able to do script-message playlistmanager show playlist 100000
instead to set a custom timeout. These messages are not using the peek logic so the peek_respect_display_timeout
is not affecting it. Do you think the peek_respect_display_timeout=true
would be useful for script messages?

I'd like to have an "infinite" timeout (the playlist is toggled when I press KEY
, until I press KEY
again). Is it possible? I tried to use 0
but it doesn't work.
I added functionality for an infinite timeout when using value 0. You can use the existing show playlist toggle
messages to use the same script message for opening and closing the playlist with no timeouts.

Thank you, works just fine!
Good job and thanks jonniek!
I would like to keep display playlist on key down, like the F8 default keybinding. Is possible?
