Problem with Black on Black skin
« on: December 09, 2014, 03:05:02 pm »

Any chance the black on black skin can be fixed.  Do I ask for that here or somewhere else.   The large vertical height is ok for buttons on the open UI of standard view but not so good when you see them in the tag section etc.

I've asked our skinner to take a look at it.

Thanks.

yeah upon checking its every window and section.

I don't mind it on the main view,  it could maybe be sub skin with bigger fonts as well as buttons. 'Black on Black BIG'   for large plasmas and 4k?

Actually that's a good point,  what's the plan for the coming year/s @ for 4K res screens, large screens of the new OLED's 50+ inch>
Are the skins going to have 4K versions.  I notice Zoomplayer has one 4K skin now so assume this is the start of 4k skinning proper.

Skins already support high resolution.  Look at MC > View > Size.  Noire is 4x through the whole thing.

Ah yes I see thanks.

I only use the black and dark greys,  black on black, Air, silent night, Pearl.  And these don't yet.

Could I suggest a few new official black and dark grey skins, new work, new designs.  For low light and night viewing.

There was a bug where we wouldn't get the button height from the skin.  It was fixed, but skins with tall button heights look weird now.

Can you elaborate on this? I don't understand what you mean by going back to .44. I'd love to fix this skin, it's the only one I can look at.

My Black on Black skin is working now. I just modified a png file for the skin and now the boxes are normal size. I posted a reply with my workaround in a different thread but the title of that thread isn't obvious as to what the OP's issue was so I thought I'd bump this up in case it will help anyone. Here the post http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=94064.msg648547#msg648547
