hi

on the planner screen, you can see the tv picture along the left side and along the top, its a few pixels wide at most.

the channel selection screen doenst fill up the screen aswell its just a window in the middle of the screen. half of the picon is missing on the right hand side, maybe due to the screen not been used full size.

nice version of the sly skin. ta

Please allow me a few remarks.
1- IMHO the picon2 rendere isn't needed; picons are always scaled to the correct dimensions.
2- The buttons in the plugin browser are not correct (too many and no label). The same applies to more screens (I think the general setup screen).
3- Hint text doesn't show
4- The screen for the permanent clock 'burns a hole' in other screens (could be in a lower z-position to overcome that).
5- Several items missing:

[ePNG] couldn't open /usr/share/enigma2/skin_default/SKY.HD/icons/icons/ico_rec_on.png
[Skin] Error: {SKY.HD/skin.xml}: pixmap file /usr/share/enigma2/skin_default/SKY.HD/icons/icons/ico_rec_on.png not found!. Please contact the skin's author!
[Skin] Error: {SKY.HD/skin.xml}: color 'undcdcdc' must be #aarrggbb or valid named color. Please contact the skin's author!

6- Buttons in (second)infobar are missing (or is it your choice not to show them?)
7- Are you sure the renderer RunningText is required? We have something like that in our image (and I see running text without using your renderer). Same question for d2NextEvents. In general: a skin should not bring his own renderers (as that can easily lead to issues and ot's not 'plugin-like' to do so). If something is really required the imagebuilder should be requested to embed functionality.
8- For quick-EPG you fall back on the default skin. Intentional or forgotten?
9- Quite a lot of screens have no button-labels.

Looks good: keep up the god work please!

how do i install this skin it looks really useful

First read through the thread and find the latest IPK for the skin and ftp to to temp folder then install.
Then again using ftp tool find correct folders take this update and overwrite the files installed by ipk to update them.

Did you install the latest iPK of skin first.This is just an update to update the already installed skin.

 

[abell431]

Not sure what you mean by buttons in the second infobar??

 

[devioust]

Yeah ive installed all of them and they all seem to crash, ive had to reset my image a few times quite annoying really wanted to use this on my box !!

 

[abell431]

If it crashes then open dcc and navigate to usr/share/enigma2 and delete sky skin then power off your box and power it on again. You should not ned to install a new image.

Here is a screenshot of the planner screen in 0.7

Here is a look at the one I was modding. What annoy me was getting the text for current programming left aligned but I managed that this morning in CoolTVGuide settings. Coolman doesn't make it easy to find things. The other problem I had was the info for the current programme would disappear after I selected it. You can see that on the image below. I coloured the current channel yellow but could not for the life of me find out how to change the font colour for programmes in the guide. Any help would be much appreciated!

great stuff lets see who will be first to complete a skin mod compatible with vix and a sky lookie likie.

 

[Conorooney]

Haha not me anyway!! I'm going to let the boys work away but anyone is welcome to mine when I finish it but I know i'll be using theirs for guidance.
