TEday36 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 great work with the base skins, thank you so much! I have a question though.. I managed to change the sidebar as I wanted it, but i still want to change the background to a darker colour.. mainly without that lighter fade in the upper corners. Could you instruct how I would do that? thanks again! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say I want to customise the home screen to show e.g. a stadium picture, trophies, etc. What can I read to learn how to manipulate the panels? I know just enough to make small changes on my own like adjust height of a panel, but that's about it. This is a good place to start. it can be dry reading but other then that, it's trial and error and asking questions there is no manual on how to, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the Client Object Browser for the widget that has the background, i believe if you put transparency in the line and play around with the value, you can darken the background. else you'll have to make the graphics itself darker.

rushdengooner Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Can someone advise how I can adjust the height of this panel (very slightly) please? I assume it's the 'client object browser', but just want it to start slighly higher, so there's less background at the top (hope that makes sense).

I'm after the same solution, but the 'blue' is controlled by the primary colour of the team, competition and then the paper behind that panel. I haven't worked out how to get the sidebar to change in line with the primary colour, but keep the pattern yet. If you don't care about the pattern, then changing to primary colour in the sidebar menu table.xml, should do the trick.
