Ask for help from Cliff Cawley and Lance! Question is the following:-My skin consists of several interfaces (six of them): board, playlist, tile 1, tile 2, equaliser & hello! Is there any way to make each run Xion, upload it to the skin interface Hello, and not the last applied!? Thanks in advance for your reply! :)

Hi,

No, Xion will always remember the last skin loaded, there is no way to force it to reset to a specific one on and end user's machine.

Thanks for the answer, Cliff! Annoyed of course, have to enjoy interface Xion run only if the load it manually! And so would not be bad if it would be ID (For example: Load_default), which would give the definition of the default interface. This would give more options in building skins with a complex structure consisting of several simple interfaces and one (or more) containing the animation!

Hi Hamman,

Ok, I think I know what you're saying...Xion will actually load the first PSD in the .zip (.xsf) and use that for the Default.

So it won't change every time you load the player, but WILL use that when you select the skin.

I think that's what you want.

So to ensure it's first, .zip your main PSD first. Then add the other PSD files to the zip afterwards (update zip). You will then see that Xion loads your main PSD first.

Cliff :)

Huh, really? I wasn't aware Xion's load order depended on the order files were added to the archive.

That's quite useful, potentially.
I shoot and ask questions later.

Take no offense of it.

Hi Cliff, hi Logokas!
About the fact that Xion loads the first added to the archive (by date) PSD file I knew it! This I found in numerous experiments. :lol:
I mean something quite different, that is, each run is Xion appeared interface (greeting, or anything else) containing for example a group with defining ID - Load_default (abbreviated Ld_def). In my skins started greeting animation plays in the course of this animation is specified which interface to load at the end of play. Philosophy is as follows: - Skin can contain multiple interfaces, master and slave. Contains the main (usually) all the basic controls, secondary is not necessary (especially small, simple). So that's what we basically want to do when you start Xion? Of course select the desired song or playlist and make what some still using a file or list. That's the reason I'm important to start each new Xion, he ran a greeting in which he pointed out what he then download interface! It is very convenient for the end user and allows you to make less action! Besides "Hello" is a collection of animation, and it can be very flexible to manage a set of interfaces (I think)! :D

Thank you for your support and understanding! :wink:

Ah ok. You're wanting Xion to open to the same PSD every single time it's opened? That sadly can't be done at the moment. As said above, Xion will always open the last PSD that was loaded.

It could be useful to have this option though... Wait to see what Cliff has to say again, he's the guy to implement new features.
I made the Xion Default skin. Ask me questions and stuff.

I know that at the moment it is not possible!

Yes, of course, all hope for Cliff, and needless last minute decision for him.

Updated version of the skin! Added to greet the "Hide" and "Close", and in the lower left corner of the text now displays the download progress Xion. Also added to the EQ button is displayed when you click and hover. Changed font for clues in the main interface and in the playlist. Cleaned up the layers of animation in the equalizer main interface and removed from the archive unused fonts. Reduce the overall size and skin respectively decreased memory usage. \:D/

Updated!

This is the final version of the skin to the player Xion. When re publication skin please indicate the author HAMMAN (aka SHoK1001). This version significantly reduced size, which allowed to remove the load on the processor. Also solved the problem of discontinuity interface when switching between versions of the skin. More accelerated animation.


If you find any errors, please let me know! :afro:
