Thread: hAv1c+ v3.02 - the fastest and most stable RR skin - v4 coming very soon!

I meant label L102 not B02, sorry. The font should be Webdings. Webdings 3 was a font I made as the pre-cursor to CarPC, which isn't as organized as CarPC. Webdings 3 did not have the play pause and prev/next symbols, Microsoft's Webdings does though.

If the font works in notepad but not RR, that doesn't really make any sense to me. I'm thinking there is something unique to your situation since this is the first I've heard of this issue (mAv1c also uses Webdings, maybe try that skin and see if anything is different.)

When you edit the skin file, make sure you are using quotes around the font name, for example, L102 should read:

Code:

L102,14,68,59,49,#FRed#,#FGreen#,#FBlue#,40,"Webdings","=4","CENTER"
...

If it's anything else, then it should be changed back. If it is this and there's still issues, then I don't know where to start to try to troubleshoot, especially if webdings works in other programs.

Also, to note, this skin has shadowed text which is really just the label code duplicated, moved over 2 pixels right and down, and then in black, so there is a second label L102 further down in the skin file:

Code:

L102,16,70,59,49,0,0,0,40,"Webdings","=4","CENTER"

AND, the pause symbol is right next to the play button, on it's own label code, but since it's on the same button (second button down), it is designated as L102 as well:

Code:

L102,48,66,59,49,#FRed#,#FGreen#,#FBlue#,40,"Webdings","=;","CENTER"
...

and

Code:

L102,50,68,59,49,0,0,0,40,"Webdings","=;","CENTER"

Notice that all four lines are slightly different, but they are all "Webdings" where it designates the font.

These label codes are in every .skin file except a few (mainmenu.skin, exitmenu.skin, etc.) that don't display the play/pause/prev/next symbols as color changeable labels.

Potential new graphics for this skin:



It adds a little dynamicism to the buttons, but still keeps it highly visible.

Also, I might be implementing a button customizer for the next release. (Would only affect the main screen and main menu screen)
- Change between Text, Font Symbols, Images, Images with Text
- Re-Order buttons (you don't use video? change it to GPS, or something else)

And, along with that will come a slight re-work of the code to simplify it even more.

That looks good. If i had any artistic talents, i would "frame" the middle.

Like mAv1c?



I was thinking of that, but I didn't like the way it was starting to look.

Yes, but still totally transparent. Would have the color, bevels and shadows just like the buttons. Ofcourse this is IMO.

It may be a possibility. I'd have to mess around with it a little bit to get something that I would like. The problem I came to is finding something that worked with screens that have only the left 7 buttons, and something that would remain cohesive with the menus too.

maybe something to this effect?



It's a start, but I might still abandon it and leave hAv1c+ the way it was...

I just really don't like the center window, so it's gone. I'm changing the songpos slider, and added the gloss gradient to the bottom corner 'windows.'

This is starting to look a little more refined now:



Lots more work to do...

^ That looks gorgeous Monkey, very sleek!

Looking forward to this one!
