Thread: Shock Skin v 5.0 Released

Well I am going to be a pioneer here and keep it as background.skin

Hopefully Guino can shed some light on the subject, as picviewer and background skin should be separate entities. I finally got the background code working correctly, and I want to build from there. Next step is to get the preview to work.

Here is my working code snip, this code works with the background=c:/xxx/yyy in rr.ini

This also has working iList code C4DAO, but you will need the art to make it functional.

I've worked long time to make the list completely transparent as you're used to seeing in shock series and still have the global variable to change color.

Code:

/Background Change Code

B,558,294,219,92,"SETVARBYCODE;LISTTEXT;LISTTEXT||SETVAR;background;$backgroundpath$\$LISTTEXT$||SAVETOSKIN;background;$backgroundpath$\$LISTTEXT$||RELOADSKIN||Load;background.skin",

J,555,85,223,157

SD,00,03,,,"$backgroundpath$","*.jpg",0,,,,,,,

S01,100,83,426,304,255,255,255,0,0,0,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,200,#TOPBAR_RED#,#TOPBAR_GREEN#,#TOPBAR_BLUE#,false,#LIST_SIZE#,#FONT#

IL,DL,transparent.bmp,selBK.bmp,,0,50,60

The "J" line seems to be useless now.

In any event I've got some good things cooking up for version 6. Not sure when the release will be yet as I'm considering adding HD radio and phone support to pair up with my blackjack + some more tweaks for speed.

I also removed all the vertical sliders as they are really useless with iList going on.

Here is a little teaser to confirm a new release is in production

You can create a background preview skin using the following skin code:

Code:

SD,0,0,0,0,"$backpath$","*.jpg;*.png;*.gif;*.bmp",TRUE

/, B, x, y, w, h, Command;COMMANDCODES, Tooltip
B21,0,550,89,50,"EXIT",""
B09,600,121,113,50,"PGUP||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",
B10,600,171,113,50,"UP||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",
B13,600,372,114,50,"DOWN||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",
B14,600,422,114,50,"PGDOWN||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",

/, S, x, y, w, h, fore R;RGB, G, B,  back R;RGB, G, B,  folder R;RGB, G, B,  file R;RGB, G, B, selected R;RGB, G, B, select R;RGB, G, B, trs, font pt;FONT, font name
S01,310,135,286,326,#FORER#,#FOREG#,#FOREB#,#DUMMYR#,#DUMMYG#,#DUMMYB#,#FOLDERR#,#FOLDERG#,#FOLDERB#,#FILER#,#FILEG#,#FILEB#,#SELECTEDFORER#,#SELECTEDFOREG#,#SELECTEDFOREB#,#SELECTEDFONTR#,#SELECTEDFONTG#,#SELECTEDFONTB#,true,#LISTSIZE01#,#LISTFONT01#

/, J, x, y, w, h
I01,155,211,138,148,"FILE;$backgroundpath$$imgfilename$:A"

Add this line in ExecTBL.ini

Code:

"ONFILECLICK","SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",<skinfilename>


.

I the "I" code will display the highlighted item in the directory list.

Thanks Sal, I will see if I can get it working from your example./ Personally I don't even mind if I don't have a preview but the general public seems to really want the preview feature

Awesome, IT WORKS!!!

I had to hack on your code for awhile but I got it to work, thanks again Sal!!

Not sure if you forgot this but the 'I' code would not work until I finally put a slash in there to separate the variables into a directory like structure.

Here is the snip that makes the background.skin display the preview:

Code:

I01,555,85,223,157,"FILE;$backgroundpath$/$imgfilename$:a"

You can see where the slash is added.

Also here is what the up/down buttons look like in background.skin:

Code:

B,6,305,70,81,"PGDOWN||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",
B,7,237,70,66,"DOWN||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",
B,8,84,70,84,"PGUP||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",
B,6,171,70,66,"UP||SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",

and last but not least, the Exectbl.ini entry:

Code:

"ONFILECLICK","SETVARBYCODE;imgfilename;LISTTEXT",background.skin

Finally, after quite a few months I have this step completed. It will take that small entry into Exectbl.ini but I will have everything documented in the upcoming release.

Also, this code seems to work great with the iList feature that is completed on background.skin and all other skin files.

Hmmm...wierd. Normally, there's a trailing backslash on the folder path. That's why I left out the "/"

Oh well. Looks great!

I bought a bluetooth adapter and am going to figure out the phone menu.
