winamp

how do i get rid of the controlz and just have the time and title showing?

i am having some troubles creating a winamp skin
1.the controls are getting cut off (do they need to be a specific size?)
2.Song title is oversize, how would i change it to a smaller font

Can you post the winampctl.ini file from the skin you're using?

sure np

Hmm, I'm going to need the 2 background bmp files and the ctrls.png file was well

here ya go

i have fixed the text size, it was just i hadn't set a value correct, but i am still having trouble with the controls

Ok, I see what's going on with the controls. I'll attempt to explain. First, the controls don't have to be any particular size, but they all have to be the same size. There also has to be 6 buttons (play, pause, stop, previous, next, and open) in the three states (normal, hover, and down). Also, if you have a space between two buttons, don't forget that space counts towards the width of one of the two buttons, and all the widths have to be the same. Internally, TLB takes the width of the controls image, and divides by 6 to determine the width of 1 button. It also takes the height of the image and divides by 3 to get the height of 1 button. Because of this, the width and height you specify in the ini file is ignored and only the x and y coordinates are used. If you don't want an "open" button, just make all 3 states transparent for that button.

To answer your first question about invisible controls, it's really quite easy. Just make a transparent image, and use that for the controls image in the ini file. Set the x and y coordinates to whatever you want.

I fixed the stuff I saw to save you some time. Here's the zip if you want it.

thx works like a charm
