how do you move the rotated logos over a bit im using remix skin just wanna move them over cause the writing over laps them,what xml do i do & how do u do it.

You need to open header.xml in either notepad/worpad or web page editor.

Located in:
\Football Manager 2006\data\skins\SKIN_NAME\panels

I suggest you back up the file before editing it. You also may need to unread-only it.

This bit of code controls the placement of the right hand logo (usualy the club one):

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="right" inset="220" /&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="8" /&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="mnpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt; </pre>

alignment="right" inset="220" - controls how far from the right of the screen the logo appears (bigger number moves it to the centre/left, smaller number to the right.

alignment="top" inset="8" - How far from the top of the screen it appears, small number top of the screen.

Numbers are in pixels.

This code controls the placement of the left logo (comp logo):

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="220" /&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="8" /&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="scpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt; </pre>

I suggest you give them both the same top alignment, and you'll never be able to get it so that no club or players position info covers the logo - as some stretch right to the date and user name.

Your name and your team name (the bits to the far right of the screen) should be controled by this lot of code, found near the bottom of the header.xml file:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;container id="ZDr1"&gt; &lt;layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="top" offset="16"/&gt; &lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true" inset="16"/&gt; &lt;widget class="text" id="pers" text="" standard_spec="text" style="embossed" alignment="right" auto_size="vertical" multiline="false"&gt; &lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="user" set_property="text"/&gt; &lt;/widget&gt; &lt;widget class="text" id="team" text="" standard_spec="text" style="embossed" alignment="right" auto_size="vertical"&gt; &lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="Tnam" set_property="text"/&gt; &lt;/widget&gt; &lt;/container&gt;</pre>

These two lines of the above code should control the placement:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="top" offset="16"/&gt; &lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true" inset="16"/&gt;</pre>

You may need to change the aligment from horizontal to left or right, and change inset to offset. Leaving it how it is, increasing the inset value should shift the data to the left, decreasing should shift it to the right. (I haven't changed this myself, but that should be right).

And incase you ask . The date on the left side is controled by this code in the header file:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;container&gt; &lt;layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="top" offset="16"/&gt; &lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" inset="16" layout_children="true"/&gt; &lt;widget class="date_cell" id="date" text="date" standard_spec="text" style="embossed" alignment="top, left" auto_size="vertical"&gt; &lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="date" set_property="valu"/&gt; &lt;attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="cont" value="-8" set_property="hidn" skip_if_null="false" skip_if_resetting="false" priority="1"/&gt; &lt;string id="format"&gt; [%date#1-day] [%date#1-time] &lt;/string&gt; &lt;/widget&gt; &lt;widget class="date_cell" id="date" text="date" standard_spec="text" style="embossed" alignment="top, left" auto_size="vertical"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="date" set_property="valu"/&gt;&lt;attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="cont" value="-8" set_property="hidn" skip_if_null="false" skip_if_resetting="false" priority="1"/&gt;&lt;string id="format"&gt;[%date#1-long_no_day]&lt;/string&gt;&lt;/widget&gt; &lt;/container&gt;</pre>

Which is located around the middle of the file. And is coded the same way as your user name, above.

The main title, flag, subtitle etc... is controled by this load of code, located inbetween the date and user code:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;container id="tita"&gt; &lt;container height="48"&gt; &lt;layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="bottom,extend" offset="0" gap="0"/&gt; &lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true"/&gt; &lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top,horizontal" inset="10"/&gt;&lt;!-- title area --&gt; &lt;widget class="text" id="sect" standard_spec="title,large" alignment="centre"&gt; &lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="titl" set_property="text"/&gt; &lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="fcol" set_property="colr"/&gt; &lt;/widget&gt; &lt;!-- subtitle area --&gt; &lt;container height="20"&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" layout_children="true"/&gt;&lt;layout class="centre_in_parent_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true"/&gt; &lt;!-- hide when no subtitle --&gt;&lt;attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="subt" skip_if_null="false" set_property="hidn"/&gt; &lt;container&gt;&lt;layout class="arrange_horizontal_attachment" alignment="left" offset="0" gap="8"/&gt; &lt;layout class="fit_children_attachment" alignment="horizontal,fill" offset="0" gap="8"/&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" layout_children="true"/&gt;&lt;!-- flag --&gt;&lt;widget class="nation_button" id="stfl" auto_size="horizontal" icon_alignment="right,can_scale" dspf="4"&gt;&lt;attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="stfl" skip_if_null="false" set_property="hidn"/&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="stfl" set_property="valu"/&gt; &lt;/widget&gt;&lt;!-- description --&gt; &lt;widget class="text" id="subs" standard_spec="text" alignment="centre" mlti="false" auto_size="horizontal"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="subt" set_property="text"/&gt; &lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="fcol" set_property="colr"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt; &lt;/container&gt; &lt;/container&gt; &lt;/container&gt; &lt;/container&gt;</pre>

If you want your header to look like Auora, your best off opening the header file for the Auroa skin and seeing how the above code is different.

All the code I've posted is from the Metallic skin, just so you know what the above code looks like in game. The code in the header for the remix skin, may look slightly different depending on how much the skin maker has edited the skin.

I'm trying the above with the Turnstyle skin to cure this problem

http://community.sigames.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/420...292065581#1292065581

Unfortunately - I cannot seem to find the relevant bit that I need to edit.

(methinks down to shoddy coding by the person who designed it)

Can you help at all?

MY Turnstyle skin has a gap between the logos, though these may be due to me using rotated logos rather than the standard ones.

You may be able to introduce a gap by changing this code in the header.xml file for Turnstyle:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">&lt;!-- Logo --&gt;&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="scpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="mnpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;</pre>

To this:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;!-- Logo --&gt;&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="scpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;&lt;!-- Spacer - hidden if no logo --&gt;&lt;container width="10"&gt;&lt;attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="mnpc" skip_if_null="false" set_property="hidn"/&gt;&lt;/container&gt;&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="mnpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;</pre>

The italiced is whats been changed, if thats not enough, try increasing the container width. This should work, though I haven't tested it.

retired_vpoorni

Ok so italic text doesn't work inside the code, the second lot of code should be this:

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> &lt;!-- Logo --&gt;&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="scpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt;&lt;!-- Spacer - hidden if no logo --&gt;&lt;container width="10"&gt;&lt;attachment class="test_global_attachment" get_property="mnpc" skip_if_null="false" set_property="hidn"/&gt;&lt;/container&gt;&lt;widget class="picture" id="logo" auto_size="all"&gt;&lt;attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="mnpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/&gt;&lt;/widget&gt; </pre>
