Post subject: | Main menu search box skin parameters in .skin |
I'm trying to customize the main menu search box in a .skin file, and not .skin7. Settings such as "Search_background" seem ineffective. Is it only supported in .skin7? If so, is there a way to get a classic 2 row behavior using a .skin7? BTW, is there somewhere documentation for the new .skin7 attributes/options? |

The search background is only supported for .skin7. That's because only in Windows 7 style the search box is guaranteed to be at the bottom of the first column. In Classic styles it may be anywhere, even in a sub-menu. There is no documentation for .skin7 yet. It will be coming after version 4.0 is released. For now things are still in flux. In the meantime you can experiment with the existing skins, but don't expect things to work the same way in the final version. |

It'd be useful if Search_background and related skin options could be used also in non-Windows 7 style skins. Perhaps the skin won't work well if the search box is moved, but I think it's anyway likely to be at the left of the main menu, and most likely at the bottom. Currently it doesn't work correctly in submenus anyway. |

You just helped uncover a bug. Search box when moved to a submenu isn't working in 3.9.x betas. Works in 3.6.x. |

Didn't know. Is anyone using it like that? |
