BaseSkin v2.2 avaliable for download

[Fatman_do]

Hi

Yes I can consider this. But I will do it when I update a theme.
I have also been thinking of adding a text type with a HD at the end.
eg ButtonTextHD, ButtonTextSelectedHD, ScreenNameHD
this to have the Themes "ready" if a plugin is skinned to a higher resolution.....or the BaseSkin

I will add those if they are added.

I will also drop the copying of the OSD skin xml from now on. To much work to copyor maintain all OSDs

Did't really look at these in themepacks. Sounds reasonable though. I can't imagine many varations are necessary.

I will make an UpdaterTheme instead and make a BaseSkin OSD that will allow different designs with the bitmaps.

I will have to "see" this to understand what you are really talking about. The UpdaterTheme, do you mean a theme that will distribute changes to the Advisor.ThemeXYZ folders? That might be usefull for between revision changes.

The OSD, isn't this already possible by replacing the images?

Hello Fatman_do

I made a theme that I call UpdaterTheme that will be the reference theme

It has a Main Menu with 1024x768 resolution. The Main Menu uses the ButtonTextHD section.....that looks like this.

<!-- Button and Title text styles 720x480 resolution -->
<TextStyle name="ScreenName" color="White" typeFace="Trebuchet MS" size="22" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ScreenNameShadow" color="White" typeFace="Blank" size="22" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonText" color="White" typeFace="Verdana" size="13" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextShadow" color="White" typeFace="Blank" size="13" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextSelected" color="White" typeFace="Verdana" size="13" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextSelectedShadow" color="White" typeFace="Blank" size="13" style="bold"/>

<!-- Button and Title text styles 1024x768 resolution -->
<TextStyle name="ScreenNameHD" color="White" typeFace="Trebuchet MS" size="30" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ScreenNameShadowHD" color="White" typeFace="Blank" size="30" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextHD" color="White" typeFace="Arial" size="22" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextShadowHD" color="White" typeFace="Blank" size="22" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextSelectedHD" color="White" typeFace="Arial" size="22" style="bold"/>
<TextStyle name="ButtonTextSelectedShadowHD" color="White" typeFace="Blank" size="22" style="bold"/>

This will make the themepack compatible with your skin....right.

I will add the HD section to my baseskin as well so any plugin skins that require it will find it, even if the skin isn't HD.
