Logo and Background Browser......

**MGD** · 08-01-2007, 11:44 AM

I've managed to preview the Logos and backgrounds in the two skins if you want to change the logo or background. IT DOES NOT USE A PIC VIEWER!
It just works with "LOADIMG" and an "A" definition in the skin. In the logo browser you have to load also a black image before you display the logo because the logos are transparent and would overlap each other. The background browser also overlaps with the Menu.png and shows the background through it.

Here are two sreens of it.
You also need this line in your exectbl.ini file.
"ONFILECLICK","SETVARBYCODE;LISTTEXT;LISTTEXT||LOA DIMG;20;96;445;332;$LISTTEXT$;OUT||LOADIMG;20;96;4 45;332;Menu_Off.png;OUT",Background_Browser.skin
The only drawback is you need the images in your skin folder NOT a sub folder.

Attatched is the background_browser.skin if you want to play with it.

If you manage to figure out how to keep an image's aspect ratio, let me know.

Also, just got through looking at your code, seems to filter only .jpg's.

You happen to know how to filter all image files like picviewer.skin does (bmp, png, gif, etc.)? Or know how picviewer does it?

I've been struggling w/ these issues on my skin's image browser for quite some time now as described here.

I'd really like to clean up the functionality of that skin.

I have not seen a command for this as of yet. If you define an area for a picture or application it will shrink or stretch it to the specified size.

Maybe this will help, From the SkinCommands.txt file:

It is also possible to keep the aspect ratio of an image loaded as an indicator, simply add :A to the indicator code Example: "PICTURE:A"

It mentions "indicator" but I think it will work with any image displayed in RR.

look at the screen shot. The Picture "Cave" is a jpg file, all the others are png files. If I add this to the SD definition it will show *.png and *.jpg.
/, SD, Alignment;Alignment, Disp;MODE, Icon Width, Icon Heigth, Path
SD,00,00,50,50,"$skinpath$Logos","*.png;*.jpg",
Hope that helps with your filter.

I managed to keep the aspect ratio in ultimate by doing..

/, I, x, y, w, h, Code;INDICATORCODES
I,0,0,800,480,"PICTURE:A"

which made it full screen

I just made a test with a button to set a var to show only *.png files.
B10,736,522,64,75,"SETVAR;PIC;*.png||SAVETOSKIN;PI C;$PIC$",
then the SD definition looks like this
SD,00,00,50,50,"$skinpath$Logos","$PIC$",
now it shows only png files. If you change the var above to *.jpg it will only show jpg files.

Ah HA! I was using "," to separate the different file types. Didn't think to use ";".

And it WORKS!

Awesome!
