Code:
<include name="MyTextColor">
    <param name="textcolor" default="FFFFFFFF"/> <!--default acts like fallback-->
    <definition>
         <textcolor>$PARAM[textcolor]</textcolor>
    <definition>
</include>

and call it :

Code:
<include name="MyTextColor">
    <param name="textcolor" value="FF$INFO[Skin.String(selectedColor)]"/>
</include>

Didn't tried it so far but this should avoid the $VAR use.

Just tried... Nope.. not working either.

That's got it working everywhere where I define the instances of the controls. Any idea how it could be extended to SettingsCategory.xml for example, where I just provide a default button, and so can't add [COLOR] tags into the label? Thanks again.

Up for this.

Facing (of course) the same problem.

I'm not Python coder at all but isn't it easier to allow the .xml files from Skin "colors" folder to handle $VAR or Skin.Strings. So colors can be called with their name without having to worry about controls code ? Just a though.

Thanks

Empty label2's should be fixed in todays nightly build.

Great! Thanks for looking into this, really appreciated.
Does this mean it's fixed for all controls that have a label2 property ? So button, edit etc.

And, by any chance is the issue with the textbox colors inside a container also fixed ?

RE: Font colors via $VAR[]'s - Jayz2K - 2015-08-01

I can confirm all Label2 and textboxes inside containers are fixed. Textboxes have been merged and should be available in tomorrow's Jarvis dev build if I'm not wrong ? Wink

Wow, great. So many great stuff already added in v16.

Exactly, i merged it to master and backported to Isengard branch today. It would be awesome if you guys could grab tomorrows nightly and test.

Will test tomorrow and report back

RE: Font colors via $VAR[]'s - Jayz2K - 2015-08-02

Tried the latest Jarvis dev build. Textboxes are fine. Label2 for built-in button in control built-in grouplists too but seems that Label 2 for sliderex in those grouplists is once again not showing (ex. VideoOSDSettings). Don't know what changed since your latest test build you sent me.

Can someone confirm please ?

RE: Font colors via $VAR[]'s - mkortstiege - 2015-08-02

Hmz, you're sure it worked in the test build?

RE: Font colors via $VAR[]'s - Jayz2K - 2015-08-02

I tried it on another computer. I have to install this build on the one I use today. But I'm pretty sure it worked. Will report when back Home.

RE: Font colors via $VAR[]'s - mkortstiege - 2015-08-02

Jayz2k, mind sharing a VideoOSDSettings so i am able to test and reproduce?

RE: Font colors via $VAR[]'s - Jayz2K - 2015-08-02

You can still use the modded Conq file I sent you through PM (the second one).
