Anything i need to know about layering pannels? i have a pannel that opens fine, but some (not all) of the buttons underneath it show through, how do i prevent this?

Make sure that all the buttons of this panel have the right syntax (panel refering)

<button panel="panel name" action...etc

alsomake sure you have given the right up position for the buttons and the right down position fo rthe panel.

yeah, that all seems to be OK, but the problem is that the stuff showing through is not the stuff that's supposed to be...

the thing that djdad didn't mention was that pannels will only replace pannels completely if the are in the same "group"

sure you probably already knew that though.

what are you putting on the pannels?

When you use a pannel.. You Your you need to use the code up

For example:

<pannel pannel="Audio_Deck" group="Sud_M" visible="no">
<size width="240" height="278"/>
<pos x="520" y="137"/>
<up x="1032" y="2659"/>
<down x="1032" y="2659"/>
</pannel>

Maybe your problem is solved..

Regards..

Like Dj Ro said the UP will show how the button is supposed to look like when inactive. BTW are you new to Virtual DJ Skin creation?

I'm thinking that my mistake is that pannels will not cover up pure skin? i mean, the area has to be a pannel in the first place...? yes?

one area of a skin can have as many pannels as needed, just put them all as one group, and another area will be a different group with any number of pannels necessary. get me?
