Possible to change the progressbar colors properly?
Working on a skin.
I have only been able to change the color on the part of the progressbar which actually moves during playback. I would like to change the color of the
bar where the play, pause, time remaining etc are situated. Is this possible in colors.ini or in some of the dis files?

I believe that is the only thing we missed when creating the colors.ini for v3.8.
For the next version we have added the possibility for:
[PlayTime ProgressBar]
nonElapsedBG=
If you want I will upload a new eJukebox.exe that recognizes nonElapsedBG= later today. Also, let us know if you find anything else that needs to be
added.

Thanks a lot for the reply!
Sounds great! If it's not too much trouble I would love to see a fix on this 
It's possible that I've overseen something, but the right bar of the artistlist, a blue vertical line 1-2 px large, seems to be left out of
reach too?
This also seems to be the case of the blue borders around the homeview. But, since the latter is under heavy surgery anyhow, I don't know how
much energy you want to lay into adding this to the homeview.ini file?
The rest of ej seems to be opened properly

OK... here it is:
[ArtistList]
RightBorder=
and
[ProgressBar]
nonElapsedBG=
now work when added to colors.ini

Thanks a lot!
The right border of the artistlist now works fine.
But the PlayTime ProgressBar
nonElapsedBG seems to have some problems with cooperating with the PlayTime ProgressBar.
I have set them all to 0 now, but depending on the order in the colors.ini the default white color comes into action. Either as a border for the
progressbar When:
[PlayTime ProgressBar]
nonElapsedBG=0
[PlayTime ProgressBar]
Background=0
Border=0
or as background for the nonelapsed bg When:
[PlayTime ProgressBar]
Background=0
Border=0
[PlayTime ProgressBar]
nonElapsedBG=0
Hope I've described the problem good enought. I'll post screenshots if you need them.

Sorry should have explained...
You need to put all 3 under the same header like:
[PlayTime ProgressBar]
Background=0
Border=0
nonElapsedBG=0

Strange, that made all colors appear correctly except for the border color of the progressbar that draws two white lines through the bar while
advancing, even when set to color 0.

A screenshot of how it looks. Can it be due to a color defined for some other element?

Thanks for the screenshot. We have fixed it so the border color gets applied correctly.

Agreed. It's quite dark, the color settings more or less the
oppsosite of the default eJ skin. But after getting used to it, i think most people will find it quite stylish, allthough perhaps a bit alien.

That will be the "Arctic design"! I'm impatient to play
with it!

Hehe.. I don't know how much "arctic feel" there is in this one. You've already played with it through the help you gave us with
the songlist imagescaling, remember?
I might have some more questions about dising soon. Would like to implement some shadows for the now playing fonts, but can't get it to work
properly. Wish I was as good as you with the dis files
edit: I figured out how to use the glow effect properly in the songlist and artistlist.
But for some reason it won't work (with the same techniques) in the playlist and now playing panels. Probably doing something wrong, will try to
figure it out tomorrow when I return from the university.

Yes that's true i've already played a bit with your songlist, and
with your damned dis file too! Thanks.
Now i'm even more impatient to see the final result!
...shadows in the now playing pannel? Good idea! and easy to carry out, i think. A little filter should do nicely...
That will be a pleasure if i can help you a bit, in spite of my modest competences...
edit:
Well, i hope i will be up to... if you say that don't work like in the songlist! Weird...
2nd edit:
By the way, your now playing panel screenshot look great! Bravo Fishy & Junk

I've also tried to apply some filters in the other panels:
Unfortunately you are right Fishy, the nowplaying and playlist panels seem to don't support filters from their dis files. I think it's
because they aren't in pure html. Only Audiosoft could allow filters there, if they can find a way to pass them through the dis file...
The Artistlist support filters, but as it's a long list, that slowdown to much the mouse reaction...

Hmm...maybe there is some sort of font you could use to make almost the same effect but without the slow down. If you include fonts in your
skinname.zip they should be accessible for anyone that uses the skin.

Ah... really Audiosoft? Thanks for the suggestion! Now we can go hunting to the shadowed fonts...

Not sure if there is such thing as shadowed fonts...but there may be. I know there are "bubble" fonts which might look good.

We have made it so eJukebox v3.83 supports filters specified on the nowplaying.dis file.
