Is there any chance of having the player description font smaller, so that more text can be shown ? I know the CFG only has room for 2 characters, and I’ve edited the INI file direct to put in FM frequencies - but perhaps smaller fonts with space in the CFG for more than 2 characters ?
That would be really good.
Edit the file layout.ini and replace its contents with the following:
[Player0_0]
NameFontSize=10
You have to create such a section for each player. Player0_0 ist the first player of the first playlist, Player0_1 the second player of the first playlist, Player1_0 the first player of the second playlist and so on.
You can also change the Font (NameFontName) and Font Style (NameFontStyle, combining 1 for bold, 2 for italics, and 4 for underlined).
The appearance of the other labels can be changed in the same way with TitleFont…, StateFont…, and TimeFont.
In order to activate these settings, enter the configuration dialog and check “Fonts” in the “Display options” section on the “Miscellaneous” page.

Hello I am new on this forum!. first I want to say what a great piece of software this is.
Everthing workings fine on my pc.
But i have 1 question about the layout.ini, I want to change the name and time size
of the players.I now how to this!. Only in the Documation there is written that you must ativate
this in your configuration.
I see everything but only the button "Fonts" to this.
can you help with this, Thanks
FrankFrank,
Use skin.ini to set the size, colour and font of the Players, Cartwall etc…
This is the section and some typical settings:
[Player]
NameFontName=Tahoma
NameFontSize=8
NameFontStyle=1
NameFontColor=#FFFFFF
FadeNameFontColor=#000000
PlayingNameFontColor=#000000
Any combination above can be used, ie: FadeStateFontSize=12 to increase the size of the Player Status font during Fadeout.
This is a typical skini.ini - Use this as a starting point:

I have left out the [ScreenObject] settings as these are specific to my layout.
Thanks for the quick reply… Charlie
I’m gonna change it in my ini.
Is this same for to change the backgroundcolour of the playlist it’s now white and i want it grey.
That example is a light grey (BackgroundColor=#DDDDDD), if you mean the background of each audio item - you’ll need to change those on a “per item” basis…
Playlists are done in a similar way, with a ‘master’ [Playlist] section, or you can specify [Playlist0], [Playlist1], … sections with specific ‘over-rides’ for those Playlists (assuming you have >1 Playlist; if not, just use [Playlist0]).
Here’s my own [Playlist] section (I use 2 Playlists):

To answer your original question, the one which controls the row background colour is RowColor=, but you’ll find you will need some/all of the other items as well. Try them out (in your skin.ini) and comment out the ones you don’t need (and change the ones you do) until you’re sure it all looks and works the way you want. Obviously mine will look ‘horrible’ to you.
