I've been going through the current threads to see if this hasn't happened to someone already, but if people would just name the subject lines correctly… [ Sigh ]
I have the latest Xion build and for some reason it won't load my PSD file for the skin. I've tried removing group files, merged everything that isn't a control etc.
This is weird. I even flattened the damn PSD just to test it, and it loaded. So obviously there's something I'm missing…
Well as soon as I merged everything "fancy", it was loading 100% fine. I had a crap load of masks at one stage, so maybe it was that and not just the layer styles. At least it's working now.
I actually wanted to post a followup to this. Merging isn't the only way to fix certain problems like this. You can actually make layers in to smart objects and it will preserve your layer styles, masks etc for further edit in the future. I've resorted to doing this and it works flawless. Plus you can reuse the same elements such as the back and forward buttons just by copying the smart object and mirroring them if it fits your design. You can even reuse your slider bars, volume meters etc. And if you want to change something you edit 1 smart object and they all update.
