Action Menu For Skins?
« on: December 14, 2003, 05:37:00 PM »
I don't think there's an elegant way to do this.

But you could make actionscripts that change the <LoadSkin> (I think) tag of the mxm.xml file.

I'll be revamping some aspects of the skin system, then you'll be able to change skins using action scripts.

Currently, as geniulsalz said, you have to manipulate the prefs.xml file to make it happen.

Is there a new prefs.xml?  Or is it just mxm.xml renamed?

There's a prefs (or maybe pref.xml) on the "title directory" - this is where all of the menu-settable preferences get set, and overrides everything in mxm.xml.

MXM.xml, for HD users, will likely go away when the UI is done, but is still needed for some things yet. It will remain to control how MXM is run from a DVD-R, though.
