TWoNe Skin for standard view
« on: February 10, 2013, 12:31:50 pm »

I have created a skin for standard View, it is almost done.

I have used it for a long time myself.
I will throw it up for download if it has any interest.

I, personally, prefer darker skins, but I like your clean, friendly design! Just to give my opinion: I'd prefer the icons of Play/Pause/Stop/Next/Previous a bit smaller. And I'm wondering if it would increase its usability, if the remaining part in the seekbar is different color than the already played part.

Which icons do you use for action window and for tree items?

Thanks :-)

The seekbar and buttons will stay unchanged, it's part of the design.

I cant remember who made the icons for the tree, I found them in here, on this board
the icons in the action window is actually the originals that I just removed the colors from.

Easy to do, but looks nice and fits well with your skin!

I have a nearly done dark version of MetroX. I'd share it, if it's ok for Maverick.

Just one thing left on my to do list, but I couldn't figure out how to do. If I insert a CD/DVD the upper part of the dialog shows white font on white ground. Any idea how to solve this? Best solution would be to change the background to a darker color, but having a white background with black font color also would do the trick. (Screenshots attached)

i think it's here:
Code: [Select]
<VIEWHEADER>
     <Colors text="333333" SelectText="000000" HotText="67bf26" background="FFFFFF" HeaderBackground="d4d4d4" InactiveHeaderBackground="c4c4c4" HeaderTextColor="000000" HeaderHotTextColor="000000" ActiveTabTextColor="ff0000" />
</VIEWHEADER>
background="FFFFFF" is what u want ;)

[...]

Thanks, but this didn't work. I tried a search for "ffffff" and replaced it with red to see if this color can be replaced within the xml file. And finally I found it. It can be set here:
Code: [Select]
<FRAME>  [...]
<Entry Name="Edit" BackColor="000000" TextColor="FFFFFF" DisabledBackColor="FFFFFF" DisabledTextColor="888888"  /> [...]
</FRAME>

BackColor was what I was looking for. So I'm done :)

Thx to report it can be usefull for me too ;)
I often do the same thing ctrl+F and replace thecolors for to find it.
But i think i 'll made an xml with quotation for to be able to localize easily what i want.
The wiki is too short for this stuff and need better works on it.
It 'would be good if someone do this ,i can't because i'm not english...

well imo the skin does look more like an concept rather than a finished skin =/
just three hints...
- youve used my scrollbars (that has an gradient to illustrate a 3d effekt), and put it together with your scrollbararrows that dont are white
- also the icons on the illustrated buttons are to big (especially dsp / shuf / cont) => smaller ones look more elegant
- missing volumefront / posfront


offtopic:
StFeder - well done, first mod of the skin where i dont get eyecancer because of the flashing colors =/
however, im not a friend of white text on dark backgrounds - cause if i switch to some white page, i have a "ghosting effect" in my eyes for some seconds...

I dont know what you mean by this  ?

This is how the skin is, and I like it this way,
the scrolbars will be made different, You're right this is stolen from another skin,
and will ofcourse not stay like this :-)

Happy to read this :D

For me it feels better to use as I often use MC in dark environments. Perhaps I could lower the contrast a bit (make font color grey instead of white) but it works for me :)

This is how the skin is, and I like it this way,
I also like the missing volumefront and posfront. Was the only thing I completely removed from MetroX. DestroysDisturbs the clean look in MetroX and it also would disturb the look of TWoNe I think.
