[ HELP ] Color of non-selected text (1 Viewer)

[kyleh0000]

Hi All,

Im after a bit of help, im working on some skins and i want to be able to change the color of a menu item that is NOT selected

according to the wiki it should be <disabledcolor>gray</disabledcolor>

disabledcolor
Long
The color of the text when the button does not have the focus/not selected (#4 in above image)

and after searching around the forums i also found a tag called <textcolornofocus>gray</textcolornofocus>

but nothing seems to work, there are several other threads in this forums asking similar questions however most of quite old and none provided a fix, I just wanted to check if anyone else was having the same issue as it maybe a bug i MP or at the very least an outdated wiki page

im on Win7x64 with MP 1.1.1

If everyone else is having the same issue ill submit a proper bug report.

cheers

I have had luck with these values depending what xml file.
Have you tried in references.xml.

ok i got it working,

its got something to do with the order and also the animation affects.

if you change the default button in references.xml to something like this....

<control>
<description>default button</description>
<type>button</type>
<id>1</id>
<posX>533</posX>
<posY>250</posY>
<width>260</width>
<height>45</height>
<textXOff>17</textXOff>
<textYOff>6</textYOff>
<textureFocus>menu_list_focus.png</textureFocus>
<textureNoFocus>menu_list_nofocus.png</textureNoFocus>
<font>font12</font>
<textcolor>red</textcolor>
<colordiffuse>blue</colordiffuse>
<!-- <animation effect="zoom" start="100,100" end="105,105" time="100">focus</animation>
<animation effect="zoom" start="105,105" end="100,100" time="300">unfocus</animation>-->
<textcolorNoFocus>ff909090</textcolorNoFocus>
</control>

Just make sure the you have either commented out or removed the animation affect and also placed the <textcolorNoFocus> tag and the end and it should work fine
