Topic: Title GFX 1 - Page: 2

I give up. I tried absolutely everything I could think of to try to get rid of the white circle around the cover art. I tried turning the boxes black. I tried completely removing the cover art mask tag from the XML. I tried turning the coverbackground to 000000. I tried making the skin.png completely transparent. Still, that white circle just will not go away not matter what I do. What am I missing?

EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out. Edited skins move to the top of the list, and VDJ doesn't bother to tell you.

Yes that's based on the visibilty tags in the XML
So it will have code like
"load_pulse_active 1000ms 5000ms && pulse 12000ms"
to figure out when to start the fade out
If you simply change that to "ON" it will stay on
I just tested it in the "Blue-Dark Modern Basic [feat. remix & cover art].xml", so the whole last block becomes:

<!-- later version 2018 -->
<group visibility="get_build &amp; param_bigger 4462">
<define class="titler_item">
<panel class="titler_boxes"></panel>
<deck deck="playing"><panel class="titler_text"></panel></deck>
</define>
<group name="titler_newer">
<stack fadein="1500ms" fadeout="1500ms">
<size width="1920" height="360"/> <!-- one third of screen -->
<pos x="366" y="829"/> <!-- lower third of screen -->
<slot x="+0" y="+0"/>
<item class="titler_item" visibility="on"></item>
<!-- default -->
<item class="blank_item"></item>
</stack>
</group>
</group>

And now it fades in and stays on

Will add an option setting to keep on screen :)
The Titler by default is meant as a fade in out title message..

Its not too hard for a quick edit for now ...
Challenge is that its so many variants..

But if you click [+] next to Title GFX in the skin settings, you can see name of what variant you are currently using.
Then click "Edit" at top right corner to edit the skin...

In the XML file that matches the name, look for titler_item and just remove visibility part.

In other words from:

<item class="titler_item" visibility="load_pulse_active 1000ms 5000ms && pulse 12000ms"></item>

to:

<item class="titler_item"></item>

nothing happened , my code like this , im using vdj 8 and mac os x ..
 
Posted Fri 12 Feb 21 @ 9:50 pm
Seems correct ...

But make sure you use the skin called Title GFX (Edit) to use your edited one ;-)

No problems with that. ;-)

But did you select the skin Title GFX 1 (Edit) ... ? Else you are not using your edit, but rather the original
You need to change to the "edit" skin to see your changes

And reload skin (select other variant then back to yours, to refresh view)

Is there a way to add other fields like year and album?

Its possible to add that yes.
Would need to edit the XML file to add your own fields.

A challenge might be space, but if your song titles arent very long, it could be room to add ;-)

Hi there

Is it a WYSIWYG editor for this kind of files that is recommended?

Need to decrease the height of the black song field to fit in a mashed skin by half
Sat in 6 hours last night fiddling with the figures but couldn't solve it. Every part seems to rely on each other and need to switch track to see the update in Virtual dj

"Modern Basic Red Theme no cover as example" and changed to fit in lower left corner of screen
 	<define class="titler_boxes">
  		<!-- shadow -->
  		<square name="shadow_bottom" color="#000000" visibility="10%">
			<pos x="+6" y="+144"/>
			<size width="14+1400-6" height="6"/>
		</square>
  		<square name="shadow_end" color="#000000" visibility="10%">
			<pos x="+14+1400" y="+4"/>
