Multiple Skins

[FireLordZi]

I used EzSkin on my program and the folder it reads the images from is called 'EzSkin' without quotes. I was wondering

if it is possible to have it read from more than one folder so I can choose which skin to load.

If this would be possible it would great.

... The EZSkin example has multiple skins...

EzSkin was designed to be very, very easy! Just 3 clicks and its done!

If you want to use more skins and other GREAT Plug-ins use .... XSkin

I downloaded XSkin.au3 and I don't know where to put my code? Is it after the comment 'Now your on your own'?

Place XSkin.au3 in the include folder or in the same folder as your script.

you will need the skins ( I think you have those from EzSkin )

then try this..

#include <XSkin.au3>

; folder of skin
$Skin_Folder = @ScriptDir & "\Skins\Black-Yellow"

$XSkinGui = XSkinGUICreate( "My GUI", 400, 450, $Skin_Folder)

$button_1 = XSkinButton("Button 1", 145, 100, 100, 35, "Hello")

GUISetState()

While 1
   
    MouseOver()
   
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func Hello()
    MsgBox(64, "XSkin", "Test Button 1", 3)
EndFunc

XSkin is more complicated than EzSkin, BUT you can do a lot more with it!

When I created my title I did like this:

$XSkinGui = XSkinGUICreate( "- " & $version, 400, 450, $Skin_Folder)

and my gui is still smaller than 400,450?

Nvm the previous post, I can't figure out where to put the filename where my .bmp is because I want to have a picture on my close button at the top right.

This is the Demonstration page... All the demo scripts are here

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...st&p=233849

This demo is with the "close Picture Button"

#include <XSkin.au3> 

; the two following folders are seperate for building skins
; however in YOUR program put them in the same folder
; folder of skin
$Skin_Folder = @ScriptDir & "\Skins\Black-Yellow"
; icon folder
$Icon_Folder = @ScriptDir & "\Skins\Default"

$XSkinGui = XSkinGUICreate( "My GUI", 400, 450, $Skin_Folder)
$XIcon = XSkinIcon($XSkinGui, 3)

GUISetState()


While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $XIcon[1] Then Exit 
    If $msg = $XIcon[2] Then GUISetState(@SW_MINIMIZE)
    If $msg = $XIcon[3] Then MsgBox(0,0,"help",1)
    
WEnd

Please post your new skins in the XSkin thread and I will add a link to your post, because...
