due to lack of user feedback the actual tags may change, hopefully not though.
The way it works is the skin specifies a rectangle and a viewport label. For each item in the list that is being displayed all viewports with the specified label are drawn. However, instead of the viewport x/y position being offset from the top left corner like normal they are offset from the rectangle position in the list (so think of them as child-viewports of the rectangle which moves).
Normally the rectangle will move down the screen to show a normal list, this can be changed to move across the screen in a grid pattern.
The UI viewport is used to bound the items (i.e %Vi() )
Scrolling is completly disabled in all items except the currently selected item.
This works well in combination with the %cs tag to show differently styled lists based on the current screen :)
New tags:
%LT - Get the current items text
%LI - Get the current items icon number
%Lc - Use as a conditional to determine if the current item is the selected item
%LB - BAR TAG to show the scroll bar, params/options like other bar types. It still needs a bit of work though. Use as a conditional to find out if the bar is actually needed
%Lb(viewport, width, height [,tile]) - specify the viewport label to draw for each item and the size of each item. if the last param is 'tile' it will form a grid instead of a list
example.sbs:
%?cs<%Lb(a,100,20)|>
%V(0,0,10,-,1)%Vf(aabbcc)
%?LB<%LB(0,0,10,185, invert)>
%Vi(-,10,0,-,-35,1)
%Vl(a,5,5,160,12,1)
%s%?Lc<%Vg(00ffaa, ff0000, 000000)%Vs(gradient)%>%>%>%ac>zzzzzzz %LT zzzzz%s%?Lc<%ar%<%<%<>
%V(0,185,-,-,1)
%s%LT

%Vs(mode[, param]) : mode can be "invert", "color" (where param is the colour to use", "clear" to disable the current style, "gradient" where param is the number of lines the gradient should draw over.
%Vg(start colour, end colour, [text colour]), if this tag isnt used the list selection colours from the settings will set the gradient colours

This also moves draw_player_fullbar() and draw_player_progress() from skin_display.c to skin_tokens.c. Charcell is a bit different from bitmap here because drawing a progress bar is a combination of setting up the LCD controller (custom characters) and providing a format string. The custom character definition might fit in skin_display.c, but the format strings are needed in skin_tokens.c. Putting these functions in skin_tokens.c seemed to fit better.

example: %Vp(1, %?it<%in -%it|%fn>) <- show the next tracks strating from the first next track and show info if it is avilable or the filename.
Basic cuesheet support here, and will load upcoming track tags from the database if you have load to ram enabled.
