Favorite 2

Just realised the problem is probably the beta I sent you. I'm still working on the FileList class so the beta dll will not work with the current version of the Files plugin (will update the plugin this week).

Try using the old version of gbpvruielements (from the wiki).

[dottore]

i am using this old version. i unpacked the files from the wiki-zip, including the gbpvruielements.... i didn't test the new version yet, so i can't imagine, this could be the error.

can i do something to narrow the error down?

[McBainUK]

Is the error only with the skin you're making, or the skin from the wiki?

Is the error only when you open the favorites list?

[dottore]

it's just the favorites list, nothing else. and i didn't change that much on the skin....especially on that list there were no changes.

you could add some more logging to the plugin, perhaps we can find the error.

[McBainUK]

it's just the favorites list, nothing else. and i didn't change that much on the skin....especially on that list there were no changes.

There must be something missing in the skin. The list code uses these lines:

<TextStyle name="GbpvrUiElements_ItemText" color="LightGray" typeFace="Tahoma" size="13" style="bold" />

<SpecialElement name="GbpvrUiElements_FavoritesList" loc="190,90" spacing="40" />

<CompositeImage name="GbpvrUiElements_FavouriteListBoxImage" size="340,325">
<DrawRoundedRect loc="5,5" size="330,315" radius="5" borderWidth="4" borderColor="White" fillColor="Black" />
</CompositeImage>

<CompositeImage name="GbpvrUiElements_SelectedItemImage" size="340,40">
<DrawRoundedRect loc="10,10" size="320,30" radius="5" borderWidth="4" borderColor="DarkBlue" fillColor="DarkBlue" />
<DrawText text="@text" loc="10,14" size="310,20" textStyle="GbpvrUiElements_ItemText" align="Left" />
</CompositeImage>

- <CompositeImage name="GbpvrUiElements_UnselectedItemImage" size="330,40">
<DrawText text="@text" loc="10,14" size="310,20" textStyle="GbpvrUiElements_ItemText" align="Left" />
</CompositeImage>

Are these present and correct in your skin?

[dottore]

i'll take a closer look, thanks!

if it was me producing this error, i apologize ;-) but thanks for the help.
