ShowOSD multiline

[vuego]

Hi I have a simple question.
I'm trying to make ShowOSD using two lines.

I tried:

Code: Select all

eg.plugins.EventGhost.ShowOSD("Message A", None, (255, 255, 255), (0, 0, 0), 1, (20, 20), 0, 3.0)
eg.plugins.EventGhost.ShowOSD("Message B", None, (255, 255, 255), (0, 0, 0), 1, (20, 160), 0, 3.0)

But it shows only Message B.

Code: Select all

eg.plugins.EventGhost.ShowOSD("Message A\r\nMessage B", None, (255, 255, 255), (0, 0, 0), 1, (20, 20), 0, 3.0)

CrLf is ignored.

What else can I try?

Thanks

Hi vuego,

I'm using EventGhost for quite a while and as I'm using EG to display songinformations, I would like multiline support too. Especially when the combination of artist and title results in a very long string.
Altough I'm a python newbie, I looked around in ShowOSD.py and it seems to me, that this currently can't be done via ShowOSD. Right now I'm trying to extend this script according to my needs. But it would be great, if a coder better than me would implement this.
Meanwhile you can use the OSDMenu. It's not so easy to configure this for such a simple case. But it's surely possible.

0.3.6.1397 has multiline OSD support.

Thanks alot Bitmonster

This user support is why I like EventGhost so much and also the reason I made a donation. Keep up the good work
