thanks, it works ... almost (with anything other than "all" as the value of "auto-size" which generates a line break, it no longer works, I still have to find the right parameter values)

Hi everyone, still beginning to understand the whole flow of skinning, and I am wondering if it is possible do write some texte somewhere. When people begins to learn a new programming language it is common to start with something like : print "hello world". Can we do that in some .xml ? I presume we must do some thing like : <widget class="label" id="test1" alignment="left,bottom" auto_size="all"> <string id="xyz" value="text" /> <string id="font" value="label" /> </widget> but that doesn't work. Question : is it possible to display some text (litteral text, not database contained text) somewhere and how can I do that ?

Alas, developpers could have had a good idea (and practic) in noticing screen ID in the commentary part of the panels files

I wonder : it's recommended to tick the "Show screen ID's in Title Bar to assist skinning " option in (FM > Preferences > Interface) but I can not find a link between panels xml files and the Screen id. Is there a way to manage that or can I untick it because this is not needed

Hi, I am an old programmer (yet retired) and I can say I was used to work with XML and XSL, But if I know .xml and .xsl files are used to disply information around the screen, I can not understand how FM handles the mouseclick events they treat in sidebar or menu header. I found in client object browser.xml some lines referring to some kind of " <widget class="backroom_advice_trigger_button" ..." but I can not imagine how the whole stuff works. Does someone have the idea of how all this is handled ?
