Windows Media Player 11-skin [MM3] v1.3 released

[DaledeSilva]

Code: Select all

DockAtMostBottom=1
DockLock=1

The first entry allowes the player to be docked beneath the status-bar, the other code locks the player (making it unmovable).

Morten.

is that in the player.ini?

should it be directly under the [PlayerSkin] section?

eg

Code: Select all

[PlayerSkin]
EngineVersion=100
Resizable=1,1,1,1
Pos=0,0
Size=700,100
TimeFormat=mmm:ss
DockAtMostBottom=1
DockLock=1

thanks,

Dale.

[Morten]

That's right.

Here's a small visual update;



More changes will come after the functions in theme.mskn has been expanded together with better documentation.

Morten, I love you skin. Up to now I haven't used any extra Skins, but I will use your one. Great, Thanks.

Sorry for the rubbish question - But how do we install this?
I've got the latest Alpha of MM3, and downloaded the skin from the first link in the thread and extracted it to the skins folder. Then selected 'icon' from the skins options but not much seems to change?
Thanks.

installing skins is easy you did everything but what icon are you talking about?

just go to tools on the menu bar then to options on the dropdown context meun then when the options panel is up
go to the directory for skins in the option panels directory tree.

select the skin directory will bring up a area on the right
with all the names of the skins in your system.

just selecting the name of the skin you want will load the skin then you click on the okay button.

thats all you do to load the skins.

are you saying you did that and the skin did not load?

oh yeah "wheres the rubbish?" is a rubbish question. what you asked is a question for help.

[chilin_dude]

Thanks very much for the post - Just tried again and realised my problem was that I'd extracted it to the root of the 'skins' folder rather than making a sub-folder named 'WMP'. Now I've done that it works and looks awesome!
Hopefully someone else will make my foolish mistake and I may have helped someone

you don't need to use the skins in folders.

if you get a media monkey 3 skin just use the msz file by putting it in the folder for skins.

if the skin has a special no album art image then that, no album art image won't show up unless you use the msz file.

btw.. keith forgot to say that the msz file comes from renaming the .zip file to msz

This screen doesn't have that annoying little bar just under the play/pause button . Is this a new version that is out or a work in progress?

[Morten]

This is a pre-build of Alpha 4 which enables the possibility. I will release the updated skin when Alpha 4 is released.
