Skinning Questions, Suggestions and Ideas
by Snupy LaFleur » January 28th, 2011, 3:44 am
Hello everybody, you may call me Matt or my forum name
I am very happy to be here.
I cam across your software in a youtube video and loved the skin.

thank you for your time

When you say, "tweak it", what do you mean?

Well, when I start Xion the penguin skin does come on but I need to click the penguin to get it to the color i want. I would prefer if it just started with the skin set the way i like it. Hope that helps

Hi Matt,
That depends on the skin author. I believe the Xiontux skin was created before the settings were added. It should be simple enough to modify the skin to support this locally. It will need the skin author to update the skin before it will work for everyone else though.

Add your own save state to the layer: Signals to Xion that the visible state of the layer with the keyword should be saved between skin loads. Useful for creating configurable visuals. Keyword: save_state Alternate Keyword: svst

thank you for the info.
Is there a thread that explains how to do this?
I have never used Xion before so I don't really understand what you mean

Hi Matt,
your best bet is to read the
Layer Keyword Reference Chart in the Help Section.
I wish I could make it look/sound more Holy.
There's also a skin making tutorial there, and plenty of info which will enable you to customize any of the skins you like.
Have fun, Carmine.
