Sample Marquee Section

[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The following lines show a typical Marquee section of a skin definition file:

//  <Location>   <Font>       <Color>      <Text item combinations>

//  ----------   ------       -------      ------------------------

    3,2,234,20   Tahoma,12,N  255,0,0    Title+Author, Title, Author


This defines a marquee display box that shows the title and author if both are defined, the title if only Title is defined, or the name of the author if only Author is defined. If neither is defined, nothing will be displayed.
