-====== New user tips ======
+That kind of thiknnig shows you're an expert
-You may never see the light of day if you try and read the entire Columns UI thread, so this most of the useful information for new users will slowly be filled in here.
-FIXME Actually add some useful content here
-===== Formatting tips =====
-==== Understanding titleformatting ====
-Rather than blindly using someone elses config, it is best to get a grasp of the titleformatting language, so you can create personalised configs yourself. The language used in titleformatting is tagz; for more information see the articles below:
-  * [[ha>Foobar2000:Titleformat_Introduction|Titleformat Introduction]]
-  * [[ha>Foobar2000:Titleformat_Reference|Titleformat Reference]]
-==== Filesize in MB ====
-<code tagz>$div(%_filesize%,1048576).$num($div($mul($mod(%_filesize%,1048576),100),1048576),2) MB</code>
-==== Filesize in KB ====
-<code tagz>$ifgreater($div(%_filesize%,1024,1000),1,$div(%_filesize%,1024,1000)',',)$right($div(%_filesize%,1024),3)' KB'</code>
-==== Alternating track colours ====
-In your colour string, use this code for the colour you wish to alternate:
-<code tagz>$ifequal($mod(%_playlist_number%,2),0,<colour a>,<colour b>)</code>replacing <colour a> and <colour b> with your desired colours.
-==== Making groups of alternating colours ====
-To create alternating colours for groups of three songs (three red, three blue), use the following code:<code tagz>$ifgreater($mod($add($_playlist_number%,1),6),2),0000dd,dd0000>)</code>Replace 0000dd and dd0000 with your preferred colours. The number '1' above may be replaced with a different value (say, 4) to align the desired colour with your first list item.
