[REQ] Material Design Dark skin with blue instead of Orange

Post by kermaco »

Is there a way to make the Material Design (Dark) skin have blue or grey menu bar and bottom action bar instead of orange?

There are no user settings in MediaMonkey for the Skin, it has to be done by editing the Skin itself: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=81285

Thanks for the reply lowlander.

I duplicated the skin and edited the skin_base_add.less to get what I need. Seems like it would be difficult for a non coder to figure it out. I hope someone makes an app or plugin to be able to do this visually.

Thanks again!

What if the user is uncomfortable editing the files directly?

Then you can request skin ideas: viewforum.php?f=32

But it would depend on a Skinner to make those changes.

It is just about changing several color values in skin_base.less
More at: viewtopic.php?p=486525#p486525
So if anyone change the color consts and publish the skin then anyone can benefit and use it.

I also see that Draki is planning a color picker: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=17316 (but not sure about the his progress with this).

I'm enjoying the spirit of your team and its outcome very much.
Always love how free developers are creating a really fine software, being open for feature requests and reporting issues.
Thank you!

I appreciate your response, lowlander.

I faced a similar challenge when customizing the skin and resorted to duplicating it and modifying the skin_base_add.less file. You're absolutely right; it can be quite daunting for non-coders.

Do you guys have a progress bar with this skin for videos? I've been using this skin with my own custom colors and since around Jan or Feb an update broke the progress bar on videos. i get no progress bar. i posted about it a few times back since then up to March and still been waiting for a fix. i have the newest version today and still no progress bar. i don't know if it's just this skin or the whole thing.

Hi,
For me progress bar shows normally.

Have you tried to rename/delete persistent.json?
