Posted this in the main forum but was re-directed here.

Downloaded the aqua skin for my game and for some reason, there is this stupid panel called the "skinner panel", with the numbers one and two, fixed on the screen. It's of no real use but I can't seem to get rid of it.

Anyone know what I do about this?

It's not stupid :eek:

Its a skinner tool to help refresh the skin during construction. However the skin maker hasn't been too clever and has left it in when releasing the skin.

Fairly easy to fix. Open the 'global panels.xml' in the panels folder of aqua skin.

scroll to the bottom and then delete the following:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;container class="titled_box" title="Skinner Panel" width="200" height="90" appearance="boxes/tutorial" colour="white"&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom, right" inset="10"/&gt;&lt;attachment class="moveable_attachment"/&gt;&lt;widget class="action_button" text="1" auto_size="vertical" appearance="button/blue/button" width="85"&gt;&lt;event id="click_event" event_id="sPRF" event_target="scrn"/&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="0"/&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;&lt;widget class="action_button" text="2" auto_size="vertical" appearance="button/blue/button" width="85"&gt;&lt;event id="click_event" event_id="conf" event_target="scrn"/&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="0"/&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="right" inset="0"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;&lt;/container&gt; </pre>

Thanks, but I can't seem to do this.

I've tried to open the document, but I just get the following error message:



"The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

We're probably getting into technical computer problems now, but it looks like I have a further problem.

Open it with Notepad.

Sorry to be a pain in the arse but, I did exactly as instructed and the skinner panel has not disappeared. I re-loaded the skin and still, it has not disappeared. Looks like I'm stuck with this thing.

Untick the 'use skin cache' option in preferences. reload the game.

It'll be either that or you haven't saved the xml file or have edited the wrong one (like in a 'right' version or something). Delete it from both left and right sided versions.
