It works fine here... Are you sure your option variable is working properly?
Are you sure you're even loading the modified Style/Definition files, because there is no way you could have tried every possible method without success when the necessary modifications are so simple?

A much better alternative is to just scrap what you've done and edit the definitions file.
Search for:
<element layout=filllayout() id=atom(idUserTileVisibility) padding=rect(4,20,0,17) visible=true>
Replace with:
<element layout=filllayout() id=atom(idUserTileVisibility) padding=rect(4,20,0,17) visible=<*PlusSkin ValueOf(ShowDP)*/>>

actually volv i just realised when i tested

quote:
element[id=atom(idUserTileContainer)]
{
padding:rect(9,8,14,15);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileContainer)][class="Medium"]
{
padding:rect(5,5,9,9);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileContainer)][class="Small"]
{
padding:rect(5,5,7,8);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileBorder)]
{
background:rcbkd(1524);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileBorder)][class="Medium"]
{
background:rcbkd(1525);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileBorder)][class="Small"]
{
background:rcbkd(1526);
}
<*PlusSkin Conditions(ShowDP = false)*>
element[id=atom(idUserTileVisibility)]
{
layoutpos:none;
}
</*PlusSkin*>
<*PlusSkin Conditions(ShowDP = true)*>
element[id=atom(idUserTileVisibility)][visible=false]
{
layoutpos:none;
}
</*PlusSkin*>


i only tested it in one of the 2 versions of my 947 styles file, i have 2 a light one and a dark one, i must of tested it on the dark one last night and summer theme uses the light one, when i tested it in the light one it worked. thanks everyone for your help. by the way <element layout=filllayout() id=atom(idUserTileVisibility) padding=rect(4,20,0,17) visible=<*PlusSkin ValueOf(ShowDP)*/>> did not do anything in the 947 definition file.

first make sure you have a boolval option in your skininfo fiule called "Show DP" without that the above code wont work, you could of course change that part of the code to the name of the option you created to solve your problem. off the top of my head thats the only thing i can think of however without looking at your code or your skin trace file itll be hard to track it down more precisely.
