[QUOTE="kjegibbons, post: 924430, member: 113063"] Agreed, some of the text is hard to read because of the background pic (I've found this true for other plugins, ie. WorldWeather)...not got that far yet :)...but I have included the alternative background pics in the "Media" folder...if you want to change the background for a particular window to suit your needs this is hard coded in the skin file so you will have to copy and paste the background pictures file name into the skin. The alternative is to change the font colour entries in the skin file. The reason for the overlapping is because the parameters for temps, voltages and fan speed are again hard coded in the skin and have to be entered to coincide with your entries in the HTPC Info config. The screenshots show the windows without the parameters entered in the skin file, but once these have been entered (to suit your hardware/software and what info you want to view) the overlapping should go depending on the amount of entries you have decided to have. The only other option is to reduce the font size (again hard coded in the skin). I did have a lot of "problems" configuring font sizes as there seems to be a "bug" somewhere that didn't allow me to use all the desired fonts within a certain window that I wanted to although the fonts were available (maybe someone knows whether this is my inexperience in skinning or a config problem). Can you upload a screenshot of the distorted gauge? Regards.[DOUBLEPOST=1350595234][/DOUBLEPOST] I'm still using ver 1.2.3 so the only thing I can suggest is to give it a try and upload any "problem" screenshots. Regards. [/QUOTE]
