i keep getting an error

Logon studio

Sunday, October 29, 2006 by steelmeetssteel | Discussion: Beginners

Hi, I am new to using all the wincustomize software, and I'm trying to make a logon skin through Logon Studio. The error i keep getting when I'm satisfied the way i want it to look is: value creation failed " at line 226 . How can i fix that, and what am I doing to make that happen.

Line 226 refers to bmp 119, or one of the frames around the userpic in the logon. It could be that you are trying to use a .jpg instead of a .bmp or a .jpg or .gif renamed to .bmp and that will create the error. Does it work at all? Do other logons work ok?

Check bmp 119 and make sure it is a true bmp and if you still have problems, you can always email me the file and I'll check it out and see what the problem is.

Ok thanks, yeah i think it is a .JPG. and other skins work so it must be that.

Line 220 is bmp 113, the other bmp that is a frame around the userpic. All images that you use in the logons have to be true bmps, not other formats renamed to bmp.

Line 220 is bmp 113


That was my guess

(I've been opening uifiles as text and looking at them, then waiting for your answer)

background: rcbmp(113,6,255,0,0,1,0);

That's how you figure it out, huh?

It will help a lot to get you close. Most Logon Studio uifiles are all the same, people don't change anything so you can pretty much count on the line error being right. But logons that are splash logons, without the uifile for that logon you can only guess compared to other logons of that style because most people add their own code and the line numbers change.
I hope you use Object Edit or Notepad ++ or something similar that numbers the lines and you aren't counting them every time though.
