I've never made a skin before, so using skin studio is foreign to me..
I want to make a skin that uses the taskbar and start menu from Royal Inspirat SE, and then use Steve Grenier's Tiger skin for everything else..
I feel this should be an easy task to accomplish, but im just trouble doing it myself..
help please?
much thanks in advance.
I'm FAR from good at this but I'll try to help. I would transfer all the graphics from the tasbar and start menu from one skin folder to the next then use all the same settings in the original for the new graphics.
It might not be a tutorial but it'll get you started.
you'de better click the "open" button in skin studio, once you've opened your own skin(tiger), then go to inspirat SE skin, here clik the "feature tab" check every part of the skin you want to import in your own skin and hit "import selected controls" and voila..
thanks.. ive tried that, and have coem across a few problems.. the taskbar/start button looks just as it would if i were to go into the windowblinds settings and select the royal inspiriat skin in the "always use xp taskbar defined in" option..
the start button is not showing up correctly,
and also when i tried saving,the validation said that there were many errors within the skin..
also- is it possible to just skin explorer in say - brushed tiger- and have the default shell style to be platinum tiger?
ok as far as it seems, for your start button prob, it'a a margin problem, clik on the taskbar button, there on your left, there must be a "content margin" line, decrease this value, even to a negatif value if needed ot adjust correctly.
Concerning the saving prob, yeah you'll have to clik on the analyse tab, there you'll find a list of the prob, you'll have to fix all the red warning prob in order to save...if you double clik a prob then clik on the code tab, you should find a text similar to the error described, most of the time removing the line fix the prob.
hope it helped, don't hesitate to msn me if you need more help
