Thread: Discussion of Standardization in RoadRunner skins, plugins, addons and whatever else

Also, since we've expanded the discussion a little bit to include a default presets, how about a default logos path?

$rrpath$\Logos\
$rrpath$\Logos\image\
$rrpath$\Logos\flash\

It'd be nice to set a default since I use the same logo on different skins and don't have to keep multiple copies in different skin folders.

There's another idea I'd love to sink my teeth into.

There should be a list of the most commonly used rr/skin parts that are used and all be make availalbe using this new "cleanup and organize rr" way of thinking.

Anything else to add to this common list?

How about radio presets?

*.fm

That reminds me, with all the gifted programmers writing RRCode, I'm surprised no one has coded a custom list for EQ presets. It seems quite a few skins include 4 or 5 presets on their eq.skin but invariably everyone names them differently. Hell, I bet JohnWPB could even create a press and hold command for his EQ presets like his weather presets that pops up the list and renames the button. (I double-dog dare you )

Heh, funny that you mention that. I thought about that before seeing that I have presets populated thru different skins. I was actually thinking of doing that on my new skin when I get around to doing the mixer.skin and creating button assignments to reuse existing presets.

well if eq presets had there own folder it'd take about 10 secs for me to whip up a plugin that does this.

Why do you need a plugin?

I figure you can just create a DL list w/ "*.fm" as the file display filter.

Then use "SETVARBYCODE;LISTTEXT;LISTTEXT||PRESET;$LISTTEXT$ " to enable the preset.

i never thought of it like that.. but then i've never used the file filter with a directory list before. Sounds good as you put it!
