Wip Skinning Stuff
« on: July 31, 2004, 05:08:00 PM »

Is there a decent guide to the new skinning features in the WIPs? I'm trying to do a horizontal menu (like Genuisalz's Cirkular skin but with tweening and so on), but I'm totally lost!

I forget, are you a WIP tester? If so then all I can say is read the documentation and forums. Thats how I figure stuff out. That and by looking at other skins or even scripts  <

Yes, he's a WIP tester....

I guess the best way to learn is to look at the examples and scan the forum posts here...  <

best way to do a horizontal menu is with the text field.

Sample:
QUOTE
  <LayoutElement Type="Text" Source="CGTitle">
     <IsMenu Horizontal="true">true</IsMenu>
     <TextColor>0xBBFFFFFF</TextColor>
     <Pos L="187" T="425" W="315" H="24"/>
     <Justify X="Center"/>
     <Scale X="False" Y="True"/>
     <Proportional>true</Proportional>
              <Shadowcolor>0xE9000000</Shadowcolor>
              <DoGlow>True</DoGlow>
  </LayoutElement>


as far as the tweening.. experiment  smile.gif

Yeah I've been trying to learn by reading the forum, but the info is scattered all over the place. Oh well, I'll give it a go!  <

Well, the WIP Release thread should have some good info on Tweening (including some images to help explain things)  <
