[BUG?] Skinning external Plus! windows by mynetx on 12-27-2007 at 06:49 PM
I'm adding skinning support for Plus interfaces to Apple Live Messenger.
In the SkinInfo.xml, I added
<PlusSkin>
<ResGroup>
<PlusVersion Major="4" Minor="50"/>
<InterfaceDir>Plus! Interfaces</InterfaceDir>
</ResGroup>
</PlusSkin>
In a skin subfolder "Apple Live Messenger\Plus! Interfaces", there are the Interface*.xml with a subfolder "Images".
But the extraction wizard forgets about the InterfaceLogViewer.xml, stored as Log Viewer.exe Resource.
- Interface-Config.xml
- Interface1.xml
- Interface2.xml
- Interface3.xml
- Interface4.xml
- Interface5.xml
- Interface6.xml
- Interface7.xml
- Interfacepref-Convos.xml
- Interfacepref-Customize.xml
- Interfacepref-General.xml
- Interfacepref-Messenger.xml
I extracted it now by manual resource hacker.
But my "Apple Live Messenger\Plus! Interfaces\InterfaceLogViewer.xml" is ignored by Log Viewer.exe, it's still using its internal xml.

As you point out, the file is not extracted. It's not "forgot", it's just that there's no reason to extract it if it cannot be modified.
I'll work on this limitation in future versions
