Hello DJ Dad, I use this skin since the initial version on VDJ7: I Love it !
Now a question: when I press the "Browse" button on my controller (Denon DN-MC6000) on VDJ8 (build 1897.736) the browser on skin showing in Full screen mode, but if I release the button the browser showing back in "normal" mode. Is it correct that to show the browser in full screen mode I must hold down the "Browse" button on controller ? (if yes, it's not usable).
Thank You for attention
Best Regards
Gianluca

Which button (the name of the KEY you see in the mapping of your controller ) do you use, and how is it assigned ?
geposted Wed 23 Jul 14 @ 2:00 pm
Excuse me for delay.
Well. the KEY it's "Browser" and the default action configured for DN-MC6000 controller is:
set '$browser' 1 & down ? nothing : var_equal '$browser' 2 ? set '$browser' 0 : set '$browser' 0 & var '$sampler' ? skin_panel "audiomixer" on & set '$sampler' 2 : var_equal '$mode' 0 ? browser_window +1 : set '$mode' 0

Hello DJDad, I have some question/request about this skin:
1) Is it possibile to have a functionality, such as the default VDJ8 Skin, that resize only track wave-form with mouse wheel over it ? Actually it resize the main wave-form over the decks too.
2) Is it possibile to configure the central "button" over the skin, in waveform section, to resize only the track wave-form (see above) ? Actually it resize the main wave-form over the decks too, but, for me, it's redundat, because there's already a vertical "bar" on top left of main wave-form that do this functionality.
3) Is it possible to "flash" or "blink" the circle deck and/or REMAIN time, when the song it's near the end ?
4) I see in the graphics file of this skin, the "Sandbox" "button": is it for future implementation or it's already implemented ?
5) The text font size (all) it's very small, for me. On my notebook with resolution 1366x768, it's very difficult to read clearly all the text on the skin (some it's not readable at all). If it's a problem, don't worry: I try to adjust it for my own use in the XML code, such as previous version (that was bigger than this). Expecially I'm interesting on very greater font on REMAIN conunter: with actual "space" on skin, I can't enlarge it to much.
Also, the "Width" and "Height" of many text it's not large enought to contain e bigger "Size" of font, if I need to change it: it's very appreciate if at least this value are greater, so I can change only the "Size" font.
Thank You in advance for attention.
Best Regards
Gianluca
P.S.: Excuse me for bad english :-)

The clue is in the name ..... it is 4 deck only!

Haha, ask a silly question... ;)
But seriously though, I used to use the 4 deck swap skin in VDJ7, and liked the feature of being able to hit a button on the skin to hide two decks when not needed, a useful feature when most of my normal bread & butter DJing relies on 2 decks, only occasionally do I need more than 2, and it save a lot of browser space on the skin.

Oh, so close!
With the new two deck option and the big browser, you have almost duplicated what I have been doing:

I removed two of the four mini decks and had started to add in a small mixer. :-)

There seems to be two threads going on this skin. This is what I posted on the other thread (accessible from the download section);
Thanks djdad for the update to version 2.0.
I have used your deck swap skin for VDJ7 for quite some time. I only use 2 decks normally, so, have been using the default skin for VDJ8 until now. Ooh and thank you, thank you, thank you for the Mini players when using browser zoom. It has always been a problem getting engrossed in browsing and having to constantly check on the status of the players. Looking forward to using it at my next gig. :-)
Cheers
Les
P.S. Just found a problem - no pitch reset button on the skin.
I have programmed my MC6000 with a key combination for pitch reset, pitch lock and smart sync toggle on/off. I use these extensively when I want to beat mix or disable beat mixing. But with your skin I can't do this with the mouse if it is needed.
P.P.S. There a small spelling mistake on the wave type (PC & Mac) - Choose Song Position Style

No button, but if you double click on the pitch number in the deck display area, it resets.

Ah yes, it says SYTLE. It's on line 1913 of the XML if you want to change it yourself.
