small problem with ZOOM in filmstrip view (1 Viewer)

[2BitSculptor]

The zoomed icon, for some reason displays larger than the associated folder image. It only happens in MotionPictures. The code was duplicated from the MyVideo facade. I don't know what is causing it, as the zoom control is the same in both.

Here are a couple pics to show.... The first is from MyVideo, the second in MotionPictures.

Thanks for any insight.

Could you post the skin files from each?

MyVideos gets it's covers from another source, right? So maybe those covers have a smaller resolution? Or... Does MyVideos use some kind of rezise/thumb creation? Just my guess.

Here are the facade xml's for MyVideo and MovingPictures from my 'not yet done' 4x3 (800x600) skin. There may be a lot of comments that are just duplicated controls, so I didn't loose the original settings while making changes.

Yes the source images are different sizes. My impression is that the skin engine should scale the source art, no matter what size it is, to the defined height and width control values. The image-folder graphic gets scaled correctly in both cases, just in the MovingPictures view the cover image is not scaled properly when it is zoomed.

Hrmm. Okay well I looked at your two skin files and they are not the same, as you suggested. There are many differences, but the few that jumped out at me are these tags in the MyVideos facade:

<keepaspectratio>no</keepaspectratio>
<enableFocusZoom>no</enableFocusZoom>

I haven't gone and tested alternate values or anything, but I am highly skeptical it is anything outside the differences in the skin files. While different artwork is loaded for each plug-in in the facade, the logic used is to display things is all the same.

fair enough...

I'll move those tags over, look at some other things and see what happens.

That did it......

I assumed (wrong thing to do) that those controls were defaulted to 'no' so I didn't duplicate them.... (that's what I get for being a nooB)

Thanks for the assist.....

Glad you got it figured out.
