There doesn't seem to be a way of setting/changing the pitch %.

How do I get the cover art on the jog wheel?
EDIT: Sorry, Found it! The buttons (minimize, config, skin options etc) are VERY dark on my screen. That's why I didn't notice this button....

In the quick 3 1/2 minutes of playing with it, I have found the following issues on the Mac:
Virtual DJ logo in the top corner is overly large and covers a significant portion of the window. (Picture attached.)
The numbers are not fixed size, so the counters 'bounce' left and right when counting down/up. (The fix that other skins have made is align the text left in the xml, not right. (Most of the time the leading number will be a zero.)

A few more issues-
- In the song title/artist area, if the name contains any characters that 'hang' such as a lowercase j or g, the bottom is cut off.
- If you look at the screenshot above, the word remain is cut off. (The N is sliced in half.)
- The plug (battery) indicator is always lit (on) regardless if the laptop is plugged in or not.
(FYI- I am running 1440x900 as my resolution.)

To be honest I didn't check the skin on MAC's
Battery indicator is native.
Also the times are supposed to use the "LCD" font which by default is usually installed with version 7 (unless it's not on MAC's)
Anyway, if I can get my hands on a MAC, I will fix these issues

If you give me pointers on where I can look to fix these issues, I can probably make the fixes myself and then provide you tested code. (I'm a software developer myself, so together we should be able to get this working on both Mac and PC.)

Take a look on line 10 on the XML
<define class="txt_TI_Text">
<text size="20" color="#bebebe" weight="bold" scroll="no"/>
</define>
Try to change the text size to a lower value and tell me what works best
Also on line 2770
<logo os="pc">
<size width="96" height="23"/>
<pos x="+7" y="+8"/>
</logo>
Remove the os="pc" and tell me if the logo is fine now

Will do! Give me an hour or so. :-)

Oddly enough, when I make the changes and then compress the files back into a .zip, it tells me that it cannot locate the .xml file. I need to figure out what is going on and why...

Not sure what is happening, however can you make those changes and then pass me a .zip which I will test?

Wow - looks awesome! Really looking forward to see how you cram all this good stuff into a 4 deck version!
Only suggestion - would it be possible to make the LCD font switchable? It gets a little hard to read on my screen depending on the sizes.

For some reason making the .zip files on the Mac causes issues, however I was able to manipulate the files on a PC, but then drop them on a Mac just fine.
Here is what I found:
- Removing the Logo PC designation fixes the issue on the Mac (screenshot below).
- Changing the text size from 20 > 16 fits in the text with a 'descender'.
Now just waiting for the 4 deck version! :-)

Also, you had mentioned that the wall power/battery indicator is native when I reported that it was always lit like it was on wall power. Please review your code for this since the other skins (including VDJ 8 native) properly reflect the state of power, however this skin does not. (It may on PC, but it does not on Mac.)
I'll be more than happy to be your test subject on this.

George,
Your skin is excellent. Now using it to test V8.
Probably going to use this one when my DDJ-SX2 and new laptop arrive. Thanks for all the hard work!
