I saw this screenshot on twitter earlier and apparently this panel only shows during the 2nd half and if no substitutions have been made. Does anyone if it's possible to show this panel earlier and/or even if substitutions are made? I'm not even sure what the panel/widget is called. I'm assuming this is match player rating popup.xml and it's called from the match players bar widget.xml.

That didn't do it but I managed to do something, looks like this: This is the code for it. Unfortunately, I looked through the fixture properties and the referee's match rating doesn't seem to be a property you can recall so I don't believe there's a way to add the rating easily to this panel. <container> <layout class="horizontal_arrange_autosize_all" horizontal_alignment="middle"/> <widget class="text" alignment="centre_x" auto_size="all"> <translation id="text" translation_id="441094" type="use" value="Refereed by[COMMENT: referee, use top 10 matches, no person variable here, it's just a title, the referee's name is appended directly below this title]"/> </widget> <widget class="person_button" id="FRef" alignment="centre_x" auto_size="all"> <record id="object_property" get_property="FRef" /> </widget> </container>

Hey, I want to add the referee and their match rating to this side bar in the "fixture details.xml" file, it should show up here I've tried creating a container to initially just get the name of the referee but I can't seem to get that working, it just leaves that space there instead of showing anything. This is the code I've used in this segment: <container id="refp"> <layout class="horizontal_arrange_autosize_all" horizontal_alignment="middle"/> <widget class="text" font="label"> <translation id="text" translation_id="441094" type="use" value="Refereed by[COMMENT: referee, use top 10 matches, no person variable here, it's just a title, the referee's name is appended directly below this title]"/> </widget> <widget class="person_button" id="pers" font="value"> <record id="object_property" get_property="FRef" /> </widget> </container> Does anyone have any pointers/solutions to this? Ideally I would like it to just say the name of the referee before the match is played and after the match is played it should show their name and rating.

I opened the "button.xml" file and used the <colour> tags to change what I needed. For instance, I changed red to become the background color and blue to become the white like this: <colour id="red_replacement" name="bg"/> <colour id="blue_replacement" name="white"/> I didn't touch anything else in the XML file. I assume this will work with also "green_replacement" as the id so you don't need to do anything fancy with photoshop or something.

What do you mean? All I did was add this bit of code to the bottom of that xml file just above the </panel> line: <widget id="PenD" class="match_penalty_shootout_display" hidden="true"> <animation class="slide_in_top_animation" duration="0.6" tween="ease_out" /> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" /> <record id="object_property" get_property="objt" set_property="objt" /> </widget>

"scouting centre report card.xml"

I tried adding width and it did nothing. I looked at the rest of the file and there's no preset width values for any of the containers that bit is in so really not sure how to progress from here.

I ended up doing this <container> <attachment_group class="horizontal_arrange_vertical_autosize" horizontal_alignment="left,extend" /> <widget class="text" spec="text" id="typw" auto_size="all" colour="faded text" size="small"/> <widget class="text" text="—" alignment="left" auto_size="all" colour="faded text" size="small"/> <widget class="player_extra_details_text" spec="text" alignment="left" multiline="false" auto_size="all" colour="faded text" size="small"> <record id="object_property" get_property="PExD" /> </widget> </container> Unfortunately, a new problem is this, it gets chopped off at the end: I figure I need to make something auto size or fit it in somehow but I'm really not sure what, it's nested inside like 5 different containers in total

It was really simple in the end so glad I could figure it out, seems rather silly now looking at it. You think you've got a good solution for what I posted here? I'm not familiar enough with formatting something like this

I managed to fix this in the end. Apparently it wasn't the missing "match penalty shootout display panel.xml", what it was missing was the bit of code that makes the penalty shootout panel show up in "match console panel.xml". For some reason, the original skin-maker decided to remove it so I just re-added it and the base game penalty shootout graphic returned.

Has anyone encountered how to solve this? I might make a separate post if it's not simple solution that anyone has found. Also, I managed to add the loaned club to this scout center report card but I want the loaned from club line to either replace the text "Loan Contract" or be after it, in parenthesis if possible. The code snippet for it looks like this, I'm really not sure how to write a conditional type of widget thing or if that's even possible: <container id="main"> <attachment_group class="vertical_arrange_autosize" /> <widget class="text" spec="text" id="typw" auto_size="all" colour="faded text" size="small"/> <!-- Widget for "on loan from X" --> <widget class="player_extra_details_text" spec="text" multiline="false" auto_size="all" colour="faded text" size="small"> <record id="object_property" get_property="PExD" /> </widget> </container>

Does anyone know why this panel (penalty shootout) wouldn't show up in the skin I downloaded? I loaded up the default skin and it's there in the match but as soon as I load the downloaded skin, it vanishes. The skin I downloaded didn't have "match penalty shootout display panel.xml" anywhere in it's folder structure so I added the base game one to it and it still doesn't show up. I figured since this is pretty much a standalone panel that I would just be able to add the .xml file from the base game and that would solve it but it seems like there's something else in play here. What should I be on the look up in the files to figure this out? And the skin is the FME - Zealand skin for FM23

I messed with a bunch of files a lot more over the last few days and I've finally fixed the issue. In the end, the issue was being caused by the weird formatting of the "player overview popup panel.xml" that was in v1.1 of the original skin. I tried importing the same file from other skins but this didn't get the end result I wanted (mostly broke it tbh) so I decided to see if I could fit the weirdly formatted .xml file into the base game's version of the file instead. I did this by using the Resource Archiver to extract all the panels from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2023\data\game\panels.fmf" into a folder, copying over "panels\player\player overview popup panel.xml" and inserting the bits from the bugged .xml file into this extracted one. I deleted a bunch of lines as they were unnecessary, replaced the ones I wanted with the parts I knew did the same thing on original skin and it just worked. Looking at the actual .xml file, the now fixed version of this .xml file looks very similar to the version that was causing that bugged view. There's probably some more specific reasoning as to why this worked, but as far as I can tell, it calls the same files and "embeds" them in a similar way so I'm not entirely why it works, but it does. I've attached the fixed file, in theory it can just replace the existing one for the FME - Zealand skin but I haven't tested it to see if it changes anything if I do that. player overview popup panel.xml

Would you mind sharing what you did? I'm willing to implement other fixes, I just want it to look similar if not the same

I did, and the pop works on the default FM23 skin, works on v1.0 of the FME - Zealand skin, works on v1.1 of the FME - Zealand skin. They all show the same base game player profile popup when I hover the "i" icon; all of them in that exact same inbox message. But when I import the "popup information panel.xml" and "player overview popup panel.xml" from v1.1 into v1.0, it breaks and nothing shows up at all, not even a crash or an error. When I then remove the "player overview popup panel.xml" but keep the "popup information panel.xml", all the popups now change to look like this: I tried looking where to edit this popup profile and I couldn't find which file it's in. From this point it essentially has all the bits I want except the player's footed-ness below the height and weight and the obvious player profile card with their picture, name, age, nationality, etc. I think that's now the final step I need to do but if you find something else that will fix this, I'm more than happy to learn. I couldn't find enough information about this type of problem from my searching skills, but that might be because I don't know the usual terminology used in this situation. EDIT: I did also try and add a "player personal details popup panel.xml" I found online since I couldn't figure out how to extract it from the game but that did nothing and the popup remained the same as in this screenshot with or without it.

I'm not a skin maker, I just have a passable enough interest to attempt to merge two versions of a skin I like together. I figured there might be someone here who could help me solve this one issue as it seemed to be specific enough for it be possible to track down and fix.

First off, the skin I'm editing isn't my original work, it's the Zealand skin for FM23 made by FMEnhanced (who has seemingly deleted all of their social media accounts so, no, I can't ask them to help me fix it). I liked the look of the original version (v1.0) of the skin but wanted to add a lot of the functionality that they added in their only update to the skin (v1.1). Most of it works, but the only thing I've found that doesn't is the player popup on this specific inbox item relating to players on one of the shortlists nearing the end of their contract. I assume this happened because FMEnhanced changed how the player popups look and work which means in me trying to carry over the look while changing the functionality, something broke. This is what it looks like: You can see I mouse over 2 players in with bugged player popup i icon but in the next inbox message I mouse over the same icon next to a player that has been bid on and it does work. All I want is for the popup to show, and if possible, have it look the same as the one in the 2nd inbox message. I think the problem lies within 1 of the 3 attached files (popup information panel.xml,player overview panel.xml,player overview popup panel.xml), but I'm really not certain how to fix it. I've tried removing and re-adding specific bits and it usually just breaks it in some way where I can't decipher how to fix it without reintroducing the original issue. It is possible that an entirely different file than the 3 I've attached is what is breaking it, so if you want to look into it further and help me fix this rather annoying bug, here's a download link to the full thing and you can use the resource archiver to extract any files you want to look at: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ll0puhj28dd0mxa/Remix_Test.fmf If you want to download the original FME - Zealand skin (v1.0 and/or v1.1) to compare to my cut together version, you can find them here: https://zealand.gg/fm23skinv1 & https://zealand.gg/fmskin respectively EDIT: I've just noticed that this doesn't happen on the notification of players being removed from shortlist, so I think it might have something to do with a button that I didn't capture in the GIF that could be the cause:

@bluestillidie00 any clue on the solution to this? the skin file is a bit lower in one of my replies if you want to have a look through some files

If you want, you can have a look here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ll0puhj28dd0mxa/Remix_Test.fmf/file Since there are more than 4 different files interacting with each other I'm having a really tricky time figuring out what I need to change to make it show the popup.

There are no news_item_panels at all in the skin as far as I can tell. I've tried the following: Disabling "popup information panel.xml" in "panels\generic". Has no effect, same issue remains but it does add another bar at the top of the popup with information about the player that exists below the bar for all the existing ones. Disabling "player overview popup panel.xml" in "panels\player". This only sorta "fixes" the issue, now the popup works everywhere but it reverts to a different look than the one I want to have, which is the one that exists when the file is re-added. This narrows it down to the file I mentioned in my original message, but I still can't figure out what the hell I need to change to make the popup show up.

If I'm not mistaken, it's "panels\widgets\match players bar widget" but I'm not 100% certain

Hey, for some reason on this inbox message relating to players nearing their end of contract I can't get the player profile popup to show. I'm not sure exactly which .xml file it would be referencing, probably "player overview popup panel" in "panels\player" but I can't figure out how to fix it. You can see in this gif that it works in a different inbox item. I also checked and it works for staff in the inbox (haven't checked with a shortlist yet), in the scouting tab, and in the squad tab. Any help would be welcomed, I've been trying to play with "panels\generic\popup information panel". This is based on the FME - Zealand skin for what it's worth.

Found a fix, the button was in "graphics\chrome\buttons\date\fm23" and I edited the button.xml file instead of editing the pngs.

What do you need to change to edit the background color? Because I just want to make it completely transparent instead of it having a little bit of opacity.

Hey, for some reason the background color for the current game date widget is set to this color instead of being transparent (or just the background color) and I can't figure out which line and which file I need to edit to change it. There's also this dark blue stripe to left of it that I want to make white (or hide it) but again, I can't find it in any of the files. I'm fairly certain it's a part of the "panels\widgets\current game date widget.xml" or the "panels\generic\titlebar.xml" files but I can't figure it out. I'm lightly modifying an existing skin and I just want to change this one bit to suit the rest of the title bar. Any help would be appreciated
