Just a quick question related to making skins.
How do I make text bold? |

In that case, I suggest italics as well
Just made my first skin which was really easy, and I'll maybe do more in the future. Thanks for this sweet pluging! Looking forward to a the next version!!! Cheers, Nova |

Congratulations, it works now, I started in another directory before, changing the directory made it working.

oooh, it finally worked when I started fb2k by doubleclicking the EXE. Yeah, this worked for me. Thanks for finding that. Ok, I have 3 feature requests before I start using this. One was already raised with remember the position of foo_title. Second, how about always on top configuration. And third, can I either click or double-click on foo_title to raise my playlist. Thanks for the great plugin. I almost have a minibar! |

Remembering position will be in the next release which will be soon released
What do you mean by always on top configuration ? Is what we discussed about in http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....46595&st=0# ? Just create a button with action set to Activate. |

always on top is a setting where say i minimize foobar and open up another window. if foo_title was in the middle of the screen, and i open up another program, i would still be able to see foo_title. it's kind of a "i can always see foo_title" thing.
oh and duh, i didn't think of that. This post has been edited by joeblow1102: Jul 20 2006, 14:40 |

Well it should work like this (that foo_title is always on top). It sometimes happens to me that foo_title goes into the background but once I activate it, it stays on the top.
So you say it doesn't work on your computer ? |

I think it could be good, that if you have a skin with no buttons, that you could then double click the foo_title bar and foobar would maximize.. Is that possible?

Well it is possible but I don't think it's a good way of doing it from the design point of view.
Maybe to have special events like click on the window, right click, double click and configurable by the user... |

Just wanted to say thanks! I'm loving this plugin. I had been wanting something like this to complement my minimal setup I have for Litestep, and this is indeed perfect. =)

You have the start bar on the top of the screen ? I'm asking just to be sure that foo_title doesn't jump to the bottom of your screen:) |

I'll write foo_title there, ok, but someone will have to come with an icon as I'm unable to draw one myself:) As for not working always on top... I'll have to find out how to solve it, setting Form.AlwaysOnTop = true seems not to be enough.. This post has been edited by Quiark: Jul 21 2006, 00:34 |

I still don't like it though. What if I want to add support for more windows in the future (though I'm not completely sure about that |

Just tried making my own skin.
Text rendering is really weird - no cleartype and it doesn't seem to support "HaxrCorp 4088 Caps" as a font, :( -------------------- hi

Yes, ClearType is turned off, because of a bug in GDI+ (probably). It causes the text to have ugly black outline (on a transparent black skin). I'm using a simple matrix antialiasing, but it doesn't work on some computers
I don't have that font.. try to write it without 'Caps' or so.. |

You could I suppose, make an animation following the example in the documentation, but would be very visualizing
