Code Monkey - A customizable dark skin inspired by Visual Studio

[monkeyfan1970]

Hello TIV73,

Could you add a 5th Display size option for the font size "Medium" that is between Normal and Large. I find the font size for large is a little big for my taste and setup.

Thank you.

Close MM5
Start Windows Explorer
Search bar: input %appdata%
Double click: Mediamonkey5 folder
Double-click: Skins folder
Double-click: CodeMonkey folder
There is the file “info.json”
Open this with WindowsEditor

There are the entries:

"12": "Compact",
"13": "Normal",
"15": "Large",
"17": "Very large"

Add the following between 13 and 15: "14": "Medium",

save file
exit editor

Start MM5 and change your skin setting

I testet with "Font-Family: Arial and Consolas
All tests OK

If you know your way around Github, you could make a fork and submit a pull request with your changes. It'll just be up to the author whether he wants to include the changes & merge the request.

Thanks for the hint. I will not do this.
That is up to the inventor TIV73

The next release of the addon will have updated display size options.

I have installed version 3.0.59 and can no longer switch to "Arial".
So this skin is unusable for me.
Thanks

Not sure what you mean, the skin only comes with one font and it was never possible to select another one (you can read more about that here).

I guess it's possible to change the font by directly editing the addon or swapping out font files after installing it. I don't have strong feelings for or against it, and people are welcome to do that if they really can't live with the included font, but it's deep into DIY territory so it's not something I offer support for.

Heads up, with the release of MediaMonkey 5.0.3 I also just submitted version 3.0.59 to the addon gallery and tagged it as stable release on github.

The new version now adds an additional display size between normal and large, and uses the new squeezeWindowContent progress bar introduced in MM 5.0.3. The minimum required MM version has therefore also been set tl 5.0.3.

If you already installed 3.0.59 from github a couple of weeks ago you don't need to do anything, the newly released version is identical to that version. If not, the update should be available via the built-in updater shortly.

The latest release of MM (2814) seems to have changed the Album and the Artist detail panels. The button that did have the title "Online" no longer renders correctly.

See here. #1 is the Material Design skin, and #2 is Code Monkey.

[TIV73]

Yeah, I noticed. It's fixed locally, but since I don't know if more skin-relevant changes are coming I won't publish an update to the skin until we have the final new mediamonkey update.

If you don't want to wait until that, you can actually fix it yourself in the meantime. Simply open /skin/skin_base_add.less in the code monkey folder and add '@darkTheme: true;' to the top of the file.

[Barry4679]

Thanks. I will wait. It looks slightly broken, but it is just a cosmetic thing.

[TIV73]

FYI, I just updated the first post of this thread with an announcement regarding changes in the upcoming version of the skin.
