Default Blue Skin v0.95.11 Button Overlap...

[Pilot]

Can any of you wise skin masters point me in the right direction for changing the default blue skin so that the buttons in the detail view of Recordings do not overlap? For example, when you go into Recordings, select a recording, and then get the options of Play, Delete, Exit, etc., those respective buttons overlap each other by about 2 pixels, so that when you highlight a button, the bottom border does not show because it is overlapped by the button below it.

The skin I use for my GBPVR system is simply a slightly modified version of the default blue skin (okay, the TV Guide is rather heavily modified). I've been able to move some buttons around for most of the plugins with previous versions of GBPVR, but can't seem to figure out the overlap issue with this new version. I don't see anything obvious.

Thanks for any pointers or tips.

Sorry about that, Sub -- I've attached a screen shot.

David, that looks to be exactly what I'm referring to. Where do I set the spacing to a low, positive value? Sorry for my ignorance. I'm stumbling through customizing the default Blue skin without too many issues, but doing my own original thing is still a long way off.

Thanks!

I think the spacing for this is controlled in 'tv guide\skin.xml'. Look at the 'ProgrammePopupButtons' SpecialElement, and specifically the 'spacing' attribute. Previously this was a negative value because of some ugly historic reason I wont bore you with. Its now been fixed, and set to zero in the default blue skin. I suspect yours is still negative.

Bingo! Thanks, Sub!
