SKS6: menubar items text
Tuesday, June 17, 2008 by vogliadicane | Discussion: Skinning
does anyone know if it is possible to disable the shifting of text in menubar items when pressed (usually it shifts one or two pixels down/right)?
or some workaround?

there's a custom code you can use.
TextVertShiftPressed=xx
TextHorizShiftPressed=xx
(not syre if it is TextHorizShiftPressed or TextHorzShiftPressed
try booth.
on XX set the value to move the text, you can use negative values too
exemple
TextVertShiftPressed=-1
TextHorizShiftPressed=0
PS. you can use this code in other skin parts like Tabs, taskbar buttons, etc.

WOW...never heard of this before...Thank YOU!How long has this beeen possible...I've hated text shifting from the beginning.
Does it work on XP and Vista...does it work on other states...like text that isnt responding to content margins?

cool thanks for that!
I had found some workaround using align and text margings. It worked most times, but not always
this one is what I was looking for, "lege artis"

I added it to Normal toolbar>button and toolbar like button...at first it didnt work but after adjusting content margins for the buttons...it did...so dont know if it was just a delay or if the content margins helped.

Hmmmmmmm...seems pretty hit and miss...it stopped the vertical shift on the normal buttons but not horizontal shift.
On toolbar like buttons it affected the mouseover state but not the pressed state(that it was coded for)...pressed still shifts both ways. (
