dave byrd Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Can someone please tell me how to create a background filter or how to change the opacity of my skin so different backgrounds can be viewed properly? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
radestock Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Take a look at the base skins thread. Should be very easy to adapt that code into your skin. There are dark and light versions with a filter in them My background selector mod also includes 4 levels of filter that the user can choose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave byrd Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 Cheers. Almost there. How would i fix the circled parts as they are unique to Flex? (The background pic is just a test one btw!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave byrd Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 Also, where do i change the colour of this blue line? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
radestock Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 You'd just need to alter the inset from the top of the page. Presuming you're using the version from the base skin, in the global panels.xml file just change the padding container height (I think it's set at 171 at the moment) to something a bit less. Not sure about that blue line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave byrd Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 Cant see any padding container height in global panels.xml and year i'm using the one form the base skin. Would you be kind enough to post here the text i need and then i'll play around with the numbers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave byrd Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 It would be the titlebar i'd need to play around with wouldn't it? In global panels.xml if i modify the gap value like so: <layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="top, extend" gap="-20" offset="0"/> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/> It does this: ??

radestock Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 If you've done it the way the base skin with better background support works then you'll have this at the top of your global panels.xml file: <!-- this file lists the global panels that should be installed --> <panel name="global panels" version="1.0"> <!--backgrounds--> <container> <layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="top, extend" gap="0" offset="0"/> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/> <!-- top padding --> <container height="170"/> <container> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" inset="0"/> <!-- background picture - covers entire screen --> <widget class="background" file="backgrounds/default"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/> <attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="bgnd" mode="1" set_property="hidn" skip_if_null="false" skip_if_resetting="false"/> </widget> <widget class="background" file="backgrounds/default" hidden="true"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/> <attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="bgnd" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/> <attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="bgnd" mode="0" set_property="hidn" skip_if_null="false" skip_if_resetting="false"/> </widget> <container class="plain_box" appearance="bgoverlay/paper"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/> </container> </container> </container> <!-- Panels Box --> <!-- Contains global panels - also the container for the screen --> <container id="pnls"> ...etc You just need to edit the container height bit: <!-- top padding --> <container height="170"/> Reduce that number a bit and you're sorted.

scholes=legend Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Orite guys, i'm using the BG dark skin but would like to take the opacity down a bit for my matchday backgrounds. Would anyone be able to point me in the right place to change this as i'm clueless with all this skinning stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
