Title: Skins and Library Browser in MC11?
Post by: Bill Kearney on November 09, 2004, 08:48:04 am
Is there something about MC11 that none of the skins, aside from Thunderstorm, support the Library Browser in MC11?  It's a nice feature and would be great to use with other skins.

Not all the Authors have updated them...

I think all the Opus Ones are... If you find a skin that isn't follow these steps:




Goto the __________ Skin directory.

Copy the following files into the Opus (or any other skin's dir)

CustomTab_BorderRow.png
CustomTab_Button.png

Then goto the Main.xml and open in notebook
Copy and paste the Custom Part into the Opus  Main.xml

ie:

<CUSTOMTAB>
   <Data InternalMarginLeft="18" InternalMarginRight="18" OverlapLeft="12" OverlapRight="12"
      ImageToTextSpacing="6" FirstItemTextOffset="8" MakeFinalItemSameWidth="1" />
   <Entry Name="Button" Bitmap="CustomTab_Button.png" NumberImages="4" Columns="14,?-Flex,14" />
   <Entry Name="BorderRow" Bitmap="CustomTab_BorderRow.png" NumberImages="2" />
</CUSTOMTAB>


If you have any problems PM me your email address and I will send you the updated Main.xml

Worked like a charm, thanks!

To clarify for anyone else out there, you paste the <CUSTOMTAB> elements inside the <MJMS> element.  I pasted mine right at the end of the file just before the </MJMS> tag.

It would be nice it one could chose how many tiles should show per line, and what colors they are. Frankly I'm sick and tired of black, 3 row tiles rather than white, one-per-line-tiles.

Absolutely right. We need to get rid of the ugly black background in the Library Browser! Ugly. Brrrr.

Any clues anybody?
