So did you fix up those other problems with the bar at the top being put in by plus and not being able to be changed in the XML? We never heard anything about this fix, maybe if we did then I would have forced NF to do it....

sorry for not replying.. I jsut get way too many emails sometimes... feel free to email me again (even if it's jsut a copy of your last mail).

As for the title bar of the windows, I'm not sure what you mean (I guess it would be best if you checked this yourself and let me know if you stiull have the problem with more details).

Hey Patchou,
  As you know, a few of us from the forums have been trying to skin MP!L. Just one thing I have found which doesnt seem to be skinnable which is annoying and kinda sticks out... TitleBar's background. If you could just add some extra attribute to disable the background gradient. For example:
<TitleBar Style="None">
I hope this can be implemented soon so I can continue to work on my skin! :)

You never replied :( :P

I guess you could change the template to WindowTmpl for this kind of thing... but this may cause some other problems (I'd have to check the details).

Alright, as I really want to see one of your nice concepts be published on the site, I have added the option you needed. It will be in the next version :).

Note: if you need anything else than removing the titlebar's background, now is the time :).

RE: i think plus should be skinnable
wiii, excellent..

Well, starting from this post, people talked about some other 'problems'. Though I dunno how much these are real problems or not.

eg: something todo with XML containing (or not?) the positions of child windows?

Better ask NanaFreak, etc....

RE: i think plus should be skinnable
thanks heaps Patchou ;o

and also one thing is (as cookie stated) it would be good if you could position the childwindows in the xml... just so that you can make plus look different...

thanks again Patchou

well, you can already... when some of my interfaces use child windows, I add an invisible Element in the parent that I use to get the coordinates for the child.

You know, maybe you should have really told us all of his information BEFORE going on about how you wanted someone to do it.... it is kind of important :dodgy:....

Anyway, I can't remember anything else that was a real problem, but maybe someone should at least make a thread with all the little stuff (and half-sticky it) so that other people can find this out in the future if they wish to have a go at it.
