    Hi,
    i just compared the TVZAPOSD.XML from Avallonis with the one pur_berger sent me here a few Posts ago. There are significant differences, that make me wonder:

    Avallonis:
    Code:
    <control>
    		<description>background</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>0</id>
    		<posX>366</posX>
    		<posY>704</posY>
    		<width>1190</width>
    		<height>376</height>
    		<texture>tv_zaposd_bg.png</texture>
    	</control>
     
    	<control>
    		<description>TV Logo</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>10</id>
    		<posX>477</posX>
    		<posY>800</posY>
    		<width>150</width>
    		<height>120</height>
    		<texture>#TV.View.thumb</texture>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    	</control>

    Avallanche:
    Code:
    <control>
    		<description>background</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>0</id>
    		<posX>368</posX>
    		<posY>300</posY>
    		<width>1183</width>
    		<height>298</height>
    		<texture>tv_zaposd_bg.png</texture>
    	</control>
     
    	<control>
    		<description>TV Logo</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>10</id>
    		<posX>365</posX>
    		<posY>300</posY>
    		<width>190</width>
    		<hight>190</hight>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    		<texture>#TV.View.thumb</texture>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    	</control>

    Do i understand right, that PosY defines the height for the object? Then ist clear to me why the ZAP OSD is in the middle and not at the bottom.
    LAter, wehn i am at home i'll try using the values from avallonis. I'll post the results.

    regards,
    carsten

    Just got Paint here :D and a misspelling :p

    Came across this skin recently and it looks very promising!

    But I found a bug or a ugly design choice :) When I zap, The info is placed in the middle of the screen, which doesn"t look good IMO. Don"t know if this was mentioned before :) And the text is overlapping a bit (see arrow)

    Yes that's pretty ugly. :) I will change the layout and align it to the bottom of the screen in the next update.

    Hi,
    thats exactly the Problem i was talking about. Yesterday i managed to get the ZAPOSD at the bottom like it was in Avallonis.
    But there is one Thing i cant get to work. The ZAPOSD Shows me whats coming next, but not what is currently running.
    Unfortunately i forgot to take my screenshot with me so i can't post it.
    Isn't the Block named "Programme" in the XML the oine that has to Show what is currently on air? Or do i have to place another
    Block that is not there?

    Thanks!

    Carsten

    Yes that's right. There is a major problem with the bold font. I will remove the font avallanche_bold in the next version. What you can do for now is to remove B from <font> fontB20 </ font>. That should solve the problem until further.

    It is not necessary ... I'll probably remake the graphics from videoFullScreen.xml to zaposd.xml. Thanks anyway

    Hi,
    Yesterday i could finish my Little "mod" of the ZAPOSD. If you want you can try and use this file until sweborns update is ready.
    I could increase the "WAF" back to normal with it. :) The alignment is not perfect and surely Needs some tweeks to anybodys taste, but i think it's a Little better than the original one :) I made this with for my HD-ready TV that runs with 1360x768 Resolution. I could not test it on a Full HD Screen with 1920x1080 so please don't blame me if it's ugly on those Full HD Screens :)

    Everyone feel free to use and mod this file. It's my Little thank you for the help of this great community and the hard work of sweborn, pur_perger, shorty etc for this Skin.

    Thanks for the mod! This is my result. Looks better except the logo is misplaced.
