General Discussions / Re: Skinning

Going by this screenshot, I have two remarks as feedback:
1- the grey text does not have enough contrast to comfortably read it
2- the gradients look outdated for modern design standards. If you insist on gradients, more subtle ones may work better. Also they are not consistent: they go from light to dark in top bar, and from dark to light in bottom bar

Thanks, I'm not opposed to your idea, and if the powers that be agree, things can be worked out.

If you like Centrol skin, you may like my new skin (in progress) which includes the orange accent color. I believe it's the closest thing yet to your WMP11 example
Here's a quick sneak preview:

I could have a go but it will likely be a matter of months before I can share progress, if any at all. Don't hesitate to remind me next quarter

Sorry, there will be no update for this and it can not be done via override.
I want to add, a new skin is in the works which includes a wider volume slider.

TheaterMode / Re: TM Requests
« on: July 16, 2024, 07:19:52 PM »
request: theater mode star rating (and possibly love rating) should reflect rating immediately once the assigned rating hotkey is pressed; currently I have to back out, or force a window resize, of TM and back into it for the stars to update visually

TheaterMode / Re: TM Requests
« on: July 14, 2024, 03:54:44 PM »1. support for a bg2 value on Block elements, so blocks can have gradients. --- only vertical is supported
2. support for rgba (alpha) values on Text / Field elements --- thats not possible with the windows api used
4. element of type PlayDuration does not update its contents ("-4:03") during playback. --- should be fixed
1. [see edit below] Thanks but bug when yAnchor of element with bg2 is not at Panel Top. A 1px horizontal line of bg2's color is (sometimes, depending on window size) visible at top of element:
2. It's a pity
3. Thanks
[Edit]
I may have found a workaround by adding an y-value of 4 or greater to the gradient element.

I'd like to request:
1. support for a bg2 value on Block elements, so blocks can have gradients.
2. support for rgba (alpha) values on Text / Field elements
3. AlbumTracks element does not (seem to) honor width restrictions; text overflows beyond set element width.
4. element of type PlayDuration does not update its contents ("-4:03") during playback.
5. a way to layer elements; e.g. by defining them later in the xml or setting an explicit new "z-index" value; currently Text / Field elements are always layered above picture elements
6. a way to force close AutoHide panels if it's open and a certain onClick event is triggered. ("CloseAutoHidePanel:#id" ?)

TheaterMode / Re: Bug? custom images do not update with onClick event
« on: July 10, 2024, 11:59:02 AM »
Oh dang, you addressed it in November; is Theatermode so unpopular to not warrant a timely fix for this? I understand it's a single dev so I hope now that I've raised the issue once more, he will pick it up promptly.

TheaterMode / Bug? custom images do not update with onClick event
« on: July 10, 2024, 09:49:49 AM »
I'm trying to use custom png images for an element of type Icon that need to alternate between two states (play/pause) but the image does not update on state change. Only when escaping out of fullscreen theater mode, does the image update itself. Is this a bug or is the following code wrong? The audio does get paused/played correctly so it could be a bug with the visibleTrigger parameter?
Code
<element type="Icon" name="#playbuttonbg" image="Images/test/ButtonPlay.png" xAnchor="Panel.50" x="-64" yAnchor="#Controls.50" y="-32" width="100" height="64" onClick="PlayPause" visibleTrigger="Playing" />
<element type="Icon" name="#playbuttonbg" image="Images/test/ButtonPause.png" xAnchor="Panel.50" x="-64" yAnchor="#Controls.50" y="-32" width="100" height="64" onClick="PlayPause" visibleTrigger="NotPlaying" />13

TheaterMode / Font opacity
« on: July 09, 2024, 11:22:14 AM »
How can I apply opacity to text fields in Theater mode? As to have it blend with the background image. Using an RGBA value for the fg parameter ( fg="100,255,255,255" ) does not seem to work. An alpha parameter like it exists for picture elements would be nice to have for aesthetic reasons

TheaterMode / Embedded custom images/base64 encoded images for Theater mode?
« on: July 08, 2024, 03:28:56 PM »
Is there a way to embed custom images (icons) into the theater mode file, like we can do for regular bitmap skins (xmlc), perhaps base64 encode it? Or is providing a seperate folder with all required icons that users need to manually copy over to their Plugins folder, the only way?
