PictureFlow uses both the album art (see section
C
(page
141
)) and database (see
section
4.2
(page
23
)) features of Rockbox. It is therefore important that these are
working correctly before attempting to use PictureFlow. In addition, there are some
other points of which to be aware:
•
PictureFlow will accept album art larger than the dimensions of the screen, but
the larger the dimensions, the longer they will take to scale.
Note:
PictureFlow is a visualisation only. It cannot be used to select and play music.

The distance between the front edges of the side slides, i.e. changes the degree
of overlap of the side slides. A larger number means less overlap. Scales with
zoom.
Centre margin.
The distance, in screen pixels, with zoom at 100, between the centre
and side slides. Scales with zoom.
