|
|
|
bbStyleMaker is a tool for Blackbox for Windows to create
|
|
and edit blackbox styles in an interactive way.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
=================================================================
|
|
|
|
Quick Start:
|
|
------------
|
|
- Have blackbox running
|
|
- Load a style that you want to begin with
|
|
- Start bbStyleMaker
|
|
|
|
Everything else should explain itself easily step by step while
|
|
you are using it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Buttons:
|
|
--------
|
|
[edit]
|
|
Opens the current style in the 'blackbox editor' (as set in
|
|
extensions.rc or bbStyleMaker.rc)
|
|
|
|
[save]
|
|
Saves the style to disk. Asks for a name only if the style
|
|
was not edited previously with bbStyleMaker. Also, wallpaper
|
|
image changes on the 'bsetroot' section need a 'save' to apply.
|
|
|
|
[save as]
|
|
Saves the style to disk. Asks for a name always. Also lets
|
|
you choose whether you want a clean style or rather keep the
|
|
formattings as is (i.e. leave any additional items and comments
|
|
in the file).
|
|
|
|
[reload]
|
|
Reverts to the last saved state.
|
|
|
|
[quit]
|
|
Closes bbStyleMaker.
|
|
|
|
[?]
|
|
Show bbStyleMaker Info.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Color picker:
|
|
-------------
|
|
- The topmost color field shows the current style texture.
|
|
|
|
You can left click this and hold down the mousebutton to
|
|
pick a color from anywhere of the screen or from the
|
|
palette fields, also.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Color palette:
|
|
--------------
|
|
- The other 9 color fields are palettes to store a style
|
|
texture temporarily.
|
|
|
|
- Right-click to store a texture to the palette.
|
|
|
|
- Left click to pick from the palette. The behaviour varies
|
|
accordingly to the 'color' selection:
|
|
|
|
Selection: Properties applied:
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
color 1/2 All (texture, colors, bevel, text, border)
|
|
text textColor and/or foregroundColor
|
|
border borderColor
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
--------
|
|
- *border when set applies border changes to all outer borders
|
|
of the selected part (e.g. with window: title, frame, handle)
|
|
|
|
- *font when clicked applies the current shown font setting to
|
|
all parts once.
|
|
|
|
- With the sliders you can hold down the control key to link/unlink
|
|
them temporarily.
|
|
|
|
|
|
bsetroot gradient:
|
|
------------------
|
|
In the 'other' section you can now interactively set the background
|
|
rootCommand for the style. Note that you need to save the style to
|
|
let image settings take effect (otherwise the update would be too slow)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration:
|
|
--------------
|
|
bbStyleMaker requires the configuration file 'bbStyleMaker.rc'
|
|
in the same directory. You can open it in a text editor and set any
|
|
options to your preference. You can also change the style of the gui,
|
|
the font and font-size and the overall width/height of the window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changing style syntax:
|
|
----------------------
|
|
When a style is 'saved as' with the style syntax set changing
|
|
(bb*nix 0.65 <-> bb*nix 0.70) bbStyleMaker will insert a section
|
|
'lost & found', with anything that it does not know what it is.
|
|
It may be other items e.g. for bbpager or just misspelled items.
|
|
You may want to edit this manually before proceeding.
