WARNING TO All Skinners of media monkey

Postby rovingcowboy » Fri Mar 09, 2007 7:36 am

as i said in my post about my mm3 skins in the news and other stuff forum room.

the possibleity to skin the text areas is there in monkey how ever

not all the text area images will show up in the control test button of the
theme skinning engine..

so you will have to make your skin and then zip it up and test it by putting it in media monkeys skin folder and trying it. this is the only way
to see if the text area images are wide enough.

the text area's that need this done are the ones on the options panel.

i don't know what images those would be in the theme mskn file. because i fixed them all just to make sure i got the ones that were too short.

same with some other images you might use. you will need to make them high and wide to cover the whole area. i make most mine 500 wide to 5000 wide depending on the area image i am trying to cover.

and i make them 700 high to 5000 high again that is depending on what image i am doing for what area.
just to make sure the lower part is covered.

to cover up the area behind the windows or areas in the options you know that area where it looks like the bottom is left over?

you will need to add an active image to the first object in the list.
and that will need to be placed i think as a sub image to the client to that object? but check on that you might have to add it to the frame? or the object it's self i seem to have to mess with it each time i do it.

it will show up in the control test button so you will see it is too small or not showing.

do the same with the menu bar area add an active image to it and skin that image. it also will show in the control test button.

the ONLY things i found so far that don't show up in the control test button are the text area images used on the options.
