Adjusting Status Bar View
« on: November 27, 2013, 12:35:45 am »

I hope I am using the right term in Status Bar which I assume is the window at the top of MC and to the right of the play/pause etc controls.

If so I have two questions. The two lines of information is not quite centered in the window and the second line is just slightly cut off. Can this be adjusted?

The text/font within the window seems light/narrow. Can this be made darker/bold? 

Both these questions are asked from reading another thread here and seeing a screen shot where the text was both centered and bold.

Thanks

Here is a screen shot showing the Status Bar with lower line cut off and "light" text

Does it work better if you use the default Noire skin?

Not all skins support resizing for font size differences in the player area.  Noire works the best.

(p.s. We call that the "Player Bar".  The "Status Bar" is the line at the bottom of the program.)

Thanks Matt on the terminology correction. I am learning everyday. What I have just done seems to give me the result I want but I will take a look with Noire.

Okay, I see what you mean on sizing.  I like the sizing but I prefer the darker skins. Is there any plan to implement the sizing for all available skins? It is a nice feature.

I too prefer the darker skins. Is there a way to edit the background and font colors on mac for the Noire Skin?
