Topic: Track Highlight bar color

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I can't seem to find the option for this. Is their a way to change the highlight color of the tracks in the browser window back to the familiar green color instead of the light grey?

just open the skin xml and you can customize all those colors to own liking, if one prefer red or green.. or something else

Which part changes the highlight color, and what number is equivalent to "VDJ 7 green"?

The default 2 deck skin XML only has the following:

<browser>
<pos x="12" y="560"/>
<size width="1897" height="508"/>
</browser>

No stripes code.

Between where?

In your above example you've got no closing </browser> tag and no opening <colors> tag.

Just tried that, now every other line is green!

It needs to be just the highlight bar.

You need to change selected then

sorry fixed that now in the example ;) was a bit quick copy paste

Nightmare!

On your (Dan) new full screen browser skin, the highlighted track is a dark red-ish shade.

If I switch to full screen then back again, I can get it to be green - but if I touch it or highlight another track, it reverts back to the original color.

So WHICH "selected" do I need to change? One? All?

OK thanks. I'll give that a go later.

Would be nice if we could just pick our color choices from a menu within the VDJ config, rather than getting our hands dirty in the XML.
