vista navigation arrows on SKS 6

Saturday, April 12, 2008 by windoe | Discussion: Skinning

Hi everyone.

I 've got a problem with Vista navigations arrows on SKS 6.
I've designed all arrows states with a 27x27 image , composed of 2 frames. (left, right).
My design appears in skinstudio preview, but when I apply the skin, nothing changes...

does anyone know how to fix that ?

thanks in advance

Make shure that You dont have the "Image Is tiled Vertically" Checked under the image tab... Ond in frame builder if you are useing it. If you are not Try to cut your image in half and Use frame builder and Import the right arrow to all frames and then import the left into the left frame? I hope you under stood that? Images would help and you can upload them to photobucket to post them here. Also.. I dont know if this has anything to do with it but..

what is you background image for the navigation buttons. That template is 70x29 and You can make it transparent. This part of the whole is where the down arrow show. The one that when pressed it shows your navigation history. This image can be anything that you want.

Did you add all states? If you added disabled as a transparent image which would mean that the button would not show when you first open a vista explorer window it would then show the normal state once you navigate to the next location in explorer. Try to go into my documents and then go into pictures and see what apears.

I would highly recomend posting some screenies It will be allot easier to help for many including me?Post the exact images you are useing for all frames

The background image and what It looks like applied. K
