**frontzosd** · 13th May 2024, 07:02 PM

This very small update, is only for to Thank my friend Alain for the nice start icon and the reason which I upload all the ux folder for each
Edition , except for 2 or 3 zips, which it needed, is for to avoid ( questions and explanations!)

For to have the nice start icon , and the last Alains Nice Silver progress bar.
It needed to modify , for each apk edition , different files for to override the default svg files.

Also for Pap G , except for diricons correction
(SAVE our choice now!)

I add an other Last function: if we touch , on trip computer we change icon!
And all theese functions set completed!

Thanks for the changes, the skin is getting better!
I have two more questions.
- The small Diricon in the upper left corner instead of the First diricon, can it be set to appear with the same frame (transparent, white or gray) as the First diricon?
- Is it the same for you, that the only Quarter Junction View is compressed in landscape view, an empty bar appears at the bottom, but it is fine in portrait view?

In this update:

Spoiler: link

we have many changes of Cockpit appearance!

As our Friend Papp G observed the problem, about Junction, landscape and quarter mode
This fixed!
Also added the ability to change, transparency for Junctions and Tunnels.
(Papp G ---> This is the disabled button, which you asked for)

New buttons about simulation mode , and
The feature to change 5 different icons from menu!
Different color for Day and Night mode!

I want to Thank our Friend Alain57 for his new nice job, about icons!!

If you like to see how we change them you can watch this video

Spoiler: video

I decide to change all the diricons architecture. As Papp G suggested!
The result is indeed better!!
This means except from 1 frame for All( first and second diricon)
The position for First and Second diricon changed!
The position For first and Second Distance , First and Secont time changed.
The position for vertical bar which inform us
When we must turn, changed.
All the objects putted, to the best places
Because there in not enought space, especially
in portrait mode.

Our Friend Alain give us the icons About frame
If we press on the First diricon we change 2 different icons , black and white.
The icons doesn't have backgrounds, only frame!
I will not change them , and I will not accept questions about icons and background!!
space is very few.!!!!!
Have a nice day!

One more small issue

Spoiler: photo

**frontzosd** · 20th May 2024, 07:45 PM

issue fixed.

**Papp G** · 20th May 2024, 09:41 PM

Some questions and comments:

"If we press on the First diricon we change 2 different icons , black and white."
- When I press First Diricon, nothing happens, but sometimes it's blue and sometimes green on the Second Diricon.
The icons doesn't have backgrounds, only frame!"
- How can I turn on the Diricon frame, I can't see it?
- In landscape mode, there is still a background at Diricon, nowhere else:

Setting "Cockpit menu/Cockpit icons transparency/Turn" sets the color of what?
I also don't know what the "Sidelist Menu/Sidelist Settings/Side" is for?
In "Art of Silver", the color of "Color of Fonts" cannot be adjusted, even if I set it to "Color" from "Default".

It would not be possible to standardize the setting of the colors to 0-100%, because one can be set between 0-22, another 0-32, and the third 0-252. And for each value setting, I would press a line to increase it, press the line below it to decrease their value, instead of the current one, where there is a line for the change, a line for "+ or -".

I want to thank, our Friend
Alain 57 for All the new icons for Skin Menu.
So our friend draw the icons from the beginning. Nice, NEW square frames for them

here is some screenshots for his nice job

Spoiler: screenshots for new Icons

Next important..
I change the priority for some objects on the cockpit.
This means that objects like Speedlimit image
Or diricon images (the arrows inside diricon)
Come in front of the backgrounds.
This the conversation we have some days before .. about speedlimit and transparency

So after that we have the opportunity to use baground for the new diricons frame.

We can press over the First Arrow and NOT on the frame of diricons to change 4 different
Icons , 2 with Bacground and 2 with no background.
And of course we can set the transparency value, from menu.

But in this update we can use the new Slider buttons , as our Friend Papp G suggested.
Finally this is very useful tool especially when
We have many values for our Sets!
In theese screenshots you can see the nice Slider buttons, which our Alain
friend Alain draw.

Spoiler: Screenshots

And now, explanation about the questions..

For Papp G

We have objects in front of backgrounds

Here, are screenshots, with No transparency! And the objects in front of them

Spoiler: screenshots for priority

We have diricons with Background.
We press over Arrows!! Not over frame!!!

Unfortunately, theese apps, doesn't support
Changing the color of an object, with the (command " hushift ", so we can't change one static
Blue Icon for example with our new Slider buttons, or with our old increase buttons with 250 different colors ...)
So in this version , I disable it from menu
I had create this feature for older NextGen's

You ask me about the sidelist
And the automatic show _ hide.
And the 3 choices ...

We can give the time for the first SideList to hide

We can give the time for the second SideList to hide

We can give the Speed for the First side List
To hide....
If our speed, for example is over the Speedlimit we
Set from menu the side List Automatic hide.
(Also if we press over the screen, during simulation, the sidelist hided!)

And it depends, which limit comes first
The time or the Speed...

Also you ask me what is Cockpit buttons and
Transparency...
In theese photos you can see Only these objects to understand( with no transparency)

Spoiler: screenshot

I don'tknow, if there is something else to
Explain

Sorry @frontzosd & @Alain57 - I can't resist complimenting you publicly. Amazing. What a dedicated work.

**Papp G** · 25th May 2024, 11:27 AM

Thank you, the skin is getting better and more usable!

I'm glad that you managed to solve the sliders and the speedlimit frame background! Let me believe that I had a part in them too, if only a little!

Since no one else but me reports back if something works strangely, I don't know if the error is just for me or for everyone.
For me, the error was in the Save folder, that I couldn't set the background of Diricon, I put back an older one, now it's good!
Couldn't the gray one be added to the background of the Diricon (which was already there once), instead of just switching between white and transparent?
Can't the small Diricon background be the same as the big one?

Spoiler: screenshot

Sorry, if I ask stupid questions, I tend to ask questions that I can't see working even after many attempts:

I don't know that either, in the list on the right, what can be set between -252 and +252, I tried many ways, but it didn't make any difference.
Couldn't the background of the traffic signs on the left (if there are 2 signs) be made a little shorter?

Spoiler: screenshot

Could the slider even be put in here?

Dear friend..
Of course you are part of the evolution of this skin
and your ideas are helpful!!

We said that the new apk, doesn't support
Color shifting!

I have already disable it from menu..
Next step is from the sidelist.

Next step will be and a new icon for Highways
Turn from our friend Alain.

Of course we dont have finish with Slider buttons...but you gave me an idea....
When I saw your screenshots with the red place

Slider Button straight on menu choices...
Nice idea. Fast and Easy
I hope menu support it...
Because this is factory feature..
I Will try and this....
