Change characters used by plugins

Post by hydrolisk1792 »

I was wondering if it were possible to change the characters that certain plugins or the core program uses for their custom characters? I have all these customer displays that I can install custom characters onto the physical display, but can't use them with any of the plugins or bars. For instance, I would like to reassign the characters the bars uses in the core program "Smartie" or what characters the spectrum analyzer uses for winamp. . . Also how do I get the status of winamp to display onto a VFD or LCD a symbol insted of the actual word? Thanks

Okay, nevermind on this one, I used the sandr.dll plugin to remap the characters used by plugins and such. This is now my new favorite plugin. Thanks Limbo :D :D :D :D Did a lot of work today using this plugin on all my screens, Over a hundred, and I like the fact I can use an unlimited amount of the omit.ini files and I can rename them to anything I want. That wasn't in the release notes, but it should be :)

Actually, I didn't mention this because I never thought that this was possible. :D

Nice work!
