sizing margins for userpane, ect for vista skin
Saturday, February 16, 2008 by Vampothika | Discussion: Skinning
ookay....here goes, currently doing my first vista skin.....(loving it btw) but i got a question. when i did userpane and prog list and places list on the old skin studio, there used to be sizing margins, so i could adjust so there wasnt any stretching or distorted images....... i cant seem to find that on skin studio 6?? anyone know where it is? my userpane, proglist ect are mathmatically correct in size, but i still got a bit of a disfiguration...and its something id like to correct so the image is sharp.
i noticed there was a 'coloured' margin..but that didnt seem to do anything........kitty is lost.......

One tip kitty: when doing the "sizing margins" (now called painting margins), select "Colour preview margins". This makes it easier to see which areas are inside the margins.

SKS6 doesn't have a place to 'Hide Start Panel Shadows' ... you'll need to open the skin in SKS5 to do that.

The fourth tab 'Text' is where you set the text area ... used to be called content margins
