SS broke my skin again...shellstyles(common task) have disappeared.
Tuesday, September 21, 2004 by I.R. Brainiac | Discussion: Skinning
tried save as...tried unloading WB...loaded other skins,they work fine.I removed a single 'my music glyph'(optional)...and no more shellstyles.
This is the 3rd 'save as' for this skin.
Anyone know how to restore them?

Thanks Snowman
the arrows use translucency by default but I made them all blank...maybe that messed them up...(but I have done that before)

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Snowman...
The arrows can use translucency,but they cant be blank...I used to make magic pink versions.
Whew!Glad it was fixable...I didnt want to go another month not working on this thing.

Solution 1:
Open a new skin (Default Luna hurl)
Save as 'base' (or whatever)
Copy the 'my music glyph' from the base skin to the skin you're working on.
Assing the copied image as the 'my music glyph'.
Solution 2:
Create an image with the same color as color you have set for the background of the 'special pane content' and assing that as the 'my music glyph'
Solution 3:
If you're using BMPs in any parts of the 'task pane' be sure that none are using translucency - if just one of them are using translucency the whole shellstyle goes bye bye.
