SKS Vista Explorer Parts / Selection Image
Friday, January 9, 2009 by voidcore | Discussion: Skinning
I dont know if this has been said before but it seem's the selction image has 6 frames not 3 as is the default in SKS.
Also it is lacking in the help tab what frame does what.

The selection image can have 3 or 6 frames.
If you only supply 3 then WB creates the other 3 on the fly from the original. If you want more control then you can supply 6.
2of3: Do you have any examples?

Only one I've noticed is URL box defaults to 5 states, I think there are only 4.
That could be errant... its late.. ![]()

Yes ive noticed but the on the fly created frames displays wrong, it does not with 6 frames... trans, alpha, vert checked.
Here's a screenie i upped the contrast so its easier to see...

Also when i supply an image with 6 frames it seems to automatic use like 50% alpha on all images that is not in the orginal image, this does not happen with 3 frames where the alpha stay the same as used pic.

The line issue has been resolved for the next WB update.

the IE Navigation Background is mislabeled: it says that every image should be 70x29 pixels. It should be 76x29. It even says *****Change ME***** in the description ![]()
that's one off the top of my mind.

It is supposed to say that to keep a smile on your face while skinning... who said programmers dont have a sense of humor
