Steel Two wide

natrlhy · 2006-10-20, 00:51

Koschel,

I am enjoying your skin as it is a nice, dark alternative to BlueTwo wide.

What I am wondering is, can I copy over the .xml files used in the BlueTwo updates in SVN releases into the Steel Two skin folder and use these files (delete/overwrite them)? I wonder this because I see several misalignments with the current download available from the main site:

If I just continue to use the graphics and fonts supplied by your skin in the downloads, but utilize the updates to the base Bluetwo wide skin, will that work? Or does it not work that way?

Thanks!

Steele Two Wide is also our default screen at the moment. The colours are great.

I have already copied across most of the XMLs from the Blue Two Wide skin and this corrects some of the alignments and adds any new features from recent SVN's.

Usually when I install any SVN's I go to the Blue Two Wide skin and just copy across any recently modified files. Works well

Don't copy the regular Blue Two xmls or you will get some very strange results...

Thanks Marcusb!

So after I install an SVN snapshot, I will perform the following:

1. Copy over ALL the *.xml files in the C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Skin\BlueTwo wide\*.xml files into the C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Skin\SteelTwo wide folder.

2. I will also ensure I delete any packedgfx2* files in the SteelTwo wide folder as well just to be safe

I'm glad to hear, that you like this skin.
I've changed some *xml files too. font color mainly in about 30 files.
