The Left Corner "Notch" in Rolled Up Titlebars

cant tell from your teeny little screeny  

You can either use Skin Studio or just open up the skins .uis file in notepad.

Using SkinStudio, click on the 'Code' tab.

Look for an entry called: "rollup size" and change the setting to a higher number. Be sure to save the file and re-apply the skin.

Hope that helps.

edit: well, I tried doing this using the "Quest" skin in SkinStudio, but I can't find that entry. I found it in Notepad, but it had a ; in front of it.

Perhaps you would have to add it.

It's usually caused by the side frames stretching margins overlapping. The old fix we used to use was to create a custom button with missing part of the frame as it's image, then set it's visibility to 'add to frame'. Although that will only work now with non-per-pixel frames.

Thanks, Hippy - that rings the bell. I don't think it's an issue with perpixel frames since their geometry isn't the same.

And thanks I.R. & werewolf for chiming in.

'Preciate it.

I created a 6-tile .bmp image and saved it as the corner fill button. I created an advanced button using the corner fill button image. I set the alignment and visibility as per the copy of the button code below. I did not have a visibility option of 'add to frame' (SKS5) so I set it to always show & show if window rolled up (just in case).

I couldn't get the button to show when rolled up until I changed the button order & made it Button0 - I applied the skin after saving it & the button painted the corner perfectly. However, the magic pink pixels in the Titlebar were showing then (as often happens when making repeated changes to a skin & applying it multiple times), so I deleted the skin temp files (.wb4, ~*.*, etc.) and when I reapplied the skin, the button no longer showed up. I haven't been able to get it to reappear since.



Is 'attach to frame' just in SKS6?

is this a perpixel frame or pinked?Perpixel rollups dont usually mess up...as Hippy said,bottom sizing margins set to high will overlap and cause cuts.raise the rollup size,lower the sizing margin,or create a do nothing button if its a pinked frame.

It is a 'do nothing' button (Action=-1) in a non-perpixel top frame using magic pink trans (for only one pixel in this button as it happens).

Because the bottom & top frames are full-width in PPX borders, this isn't an issue for PPX - it's just the overlap of the left & bottom frames in standard borders that creates the defect. Putting a button there was the remedy I recall, as Hippy reminded me, & it seemed to work 'once.'

Thanks, I.R.

Is there such a visibility setting as 'add to frame'?

It's been awhile since I made one of those buttons but one of the settings required is under painting options
set the "frame shape change" setting to "add area to border".

Thanks for the additional tip, NT. I'll give that a try.

That was the ticket, NT.

Thanks a bunch.
