Hi
I'm working on a skin which is based on large fonts.
the problem is the larger the font - the less characters are displayed.

the font is HandelGotD. the size of Line1: 200, Line2: 48, Line3: 72.

For example, I have set line1 for artist. width=1320, max characters=9, horizontal scrolling is checked, scroll divider=150.
when playing a song by a long name artist like "The Alan Parsons Project" what is actually displayed is: "The Alan Parson". it scrolls fine but not displaying the full name...

the lines with smaller fonts are having the same problem but with higher character count.

Any help will be appreciated.

Tested and confirmed. I used nearly the same options and the same font. Max char value of 15.
I can't help here. But maybe Carlos can. :)
The title should be "Carry you (Frozen Plasma Remix)"

Thanks for the confirmation ;).
I hope this can be fixed because it basically breaks my new skin which is based on big overlapping titles...

I’ll see what I can do. But I think is due an internal bitmap size limitation.
