Skin- and visual errors related to, and skinning requests for MusicBee v3

[hiccup]

Request:

fg and bg element for the Lyrics panel.
Especially with dark skins the white panel is a bit like staring into in a lamp.

It's a bit weird.
That element doesn't do anything in my skins, and it never did.

But more important, the white lyrics panel that I had encountered in a dark skin, is gone, and I can't replicate it again.
The lyrics panel seems to use matching skin colors, so there is no issue with this anymore on my behalf.

yes you are right. Looking at the code, it doesnt actually do anything any more and didnt in v2.5
I cant remember the history behind that

I just think those angled tabs look off with the rest of the styling of 3.0.
Especially so when the tag editor is docked in the main panel.

i do agree with you and will probably do this but not promising

Will keep my fingers crossed and wait in hope

nice work!
square tabs look great

<element id="Controls.ListHeader" />
doesn't appear to be working in 3.0

I've noticed that the Notification icon, either the included or overridden, is a little paler than the other icons. It's like it has a slight masking effect.

ie. on the default MB3 skin the 'Configure Layout' and 'DownloadIndicatorIcon' is "95,95,95" RBG
but the Notification one is "116,116,116"

EDIT:
Never mind. I figured it out. When it appears on the tab bar it's in highlight mode.
Duhhhhh!

thats done for the next update

[Bee-liever]

since last update (3.0.5854) add tab and first toolbar button are overlapping

nothing has been changed for the tabs handling so its probably an existing bug. Could you send me your settings file?
Also would it be when the notifications icon is displaying?

Yes. notification icon is displayed.

If I click on the new tab icon, then close the empty tab, correct spacing happens.
But only till next re-start

Was that fix in 3.0.5854.38953?
If it was - still not working.
If it wasn't - disregard this part of the post

its there now for the next update and also a fix for the overlapping icons

yes, all working now


I'd still like to see the return of the tab icons (but with the ability to have text or icon as per toolbar icons)
but I'd much rather see 3.0 reach the beta stage, so won't worry about this now
will add to the wish list at a later stage of 3.0

Hey
Is there a list of added and removed elements for v3 skins or a reference skin that has all of the supported elements?

i am planning to consolidate the new ones on one post some time this weekend. I doubt i will have time to figure out what has been removed - unforunately i misplaced the list where i was keeping track of that
