Sujet VDJ2024 Custom Skin Making (Questions)
I'm making a custom skin (vibrant skin) and I have... many questions (all of it being just the code of the skin)

First of all, I did these things:
1. Colored the decks into more vibrant colors (Saturated Blue, Bright Red, Lime Green, and Dandelion [which in the og skin being orange])
2. Backgrounds being black
3. Just like the jogwheel logo, I made the deck colored when a song is loaded

Now, the questions... (all "how" questions)
1. How can you make a 6-deck layout?
2. How to change the background color? (making it a gradient background)
3. How can you restrict the skin on only one theme? (related to #2)
4. How to make an ACTUAL Full 4-Deck skin?
5. How can you resize the waveform?
6. How can you make the deck highlight?
7. How can you make the waveform scan (IDK WHAT ITS CALLED OK?) not mirrored?
8. How can you make the waveform mirrored? (One of the wave modes)
(Maybe more questions soon)

Ok, Thanks but it still doesn't answer the questions 1 (figured out its just not exposed), and 6, or I think I'm just blind-

EDIT: I scrapped the idea of question 4

Well thanks, but I already did what you said about question 3, but when I come back to the original skin and change the theme and came back to the vibrant skin, the background also changes. I also even deleted all define codes of the color schemes

check the 
<background>
element(s) logic

Oh yeah I forgot to say

I already made the 6 deck rack semi-functional (still kinda buggy)
Scrapped questions 4, 5, and 6
And the rest is also already answered (some are not)

check the <background> element(s) logic

Aight I'll let you know if it works now

So it works now. The only thing I need to do is fix the 6 deck rack cuz its var_equal or var_not_equal isn't working

Are you referring to the unused six deck view in the default skin?



If you go back far enough to earlier VDJ versions, it was an option available from the menu, but now it's just buried bones.

Oh don't worry I can figure out myself and finish the code cuz the songpos is not colored by the actual songpos color I did

And plus I also trying to add the background for it. It's kinda empty without the background of the rack

EDIT: and the swap button

I'm not worried, I'm just asking if that's what you're using.

I forgot about this. One last question. I'm still confused how does chanX_left and chanX_right work since most of the skin makers use chanX and chanX_active. Might be helpful in fixing the rhythm in the VDJ7 6 decks skin

<rhythmzone>
<size width="1489" height="88"/>
<pos x="56" y="33"/>
<mask x="+0" y="4687"/>
<up x="+0" y="+0"/>
<colors
chan1_active="#28acff" chan1="#007ca9"
chan2_active="#ed1c24" chan2="#7d0607"
/>
<rhythm y="33" height="73"/>
<grid height="5" width="5" mainwidth="12">
<pos y1="108" y2="114"/>
</grid>
<cue y="33" height="18">
<mask x="912" y="2993" width="16" height="18"/>
<text dx="14" dy="0" font="arial" size="18"/>
</cue>
</rhythmzone>

I somehow figured the code but not done yet
