Haxial AppearanceEdit Description

Haxial AppearanceEdit - Change the apperance of your Haxial apps. Haxial recognizes that people have widely varying tastes, and what is delicious to one person is disgusting to another person, and what is beautiful to one person is hideous to another person. This is why Haxial wants to let you choose and customize the appearance of Haxial programs. Users should not be forced into one appearance.Haxial programs render/display their graphical user interface (GUI) using the Haxial Appearance Engine, which supports a high degree of customization. In other words, if you are not happy with the appearance of Haxial programs, you can change it to suit yourself.The easiest way to change the appearance is to download a Haxial Appearance file (a ".hap" file) from the Haxial website or another source, and load it into the Haxial program of your choice. The Appearance Engine then renders the GUI using this .hap file, and the appearance is completely changed.Alternatively, if you are more adventurous, or you are the artistic type, then you might like to use Haxial AppearanceEdit to create your own appearance file, or modify an existing one.So in summary, AppearanceEdit is a program for creating and editing ".hap" files which change the appearance of Haxial programs.What's New in This Release:· In order to reduce code bloat and simplify, removed support for "color only" Appearances, leaving only support for full Appearances. To support both kinds required 2 almost entirely separate rendering engines, thus bloating the program. Most of the "color only" Appearances looked crappy anyway, but if desired they can be recreated as full Appearances.· An Appearance file can now contain file icons for any file type -- you can add a file icon and specify which file type it is to be used for (for example, "image/jpeg"). An icon can also be used for a whole group (for example, if you specify "image/" as the type).· Added mouse icons (pointers/cursors) to the Appearance file, allowing you to customize them. The OS mouse icons are no longer used.· In the Images panel, support the optional drawing of transitions (aka "gradients") underneath variable-size user interface elements (to be useful, the image must have transparent areas for the transition to show through).· The above changes required that the Appearance file format change. Use AppearanceEdit to update old Appearance files to the new format by opening and saving them. Old "color only" Appearances are NOT fully converted automatically (just the colors and icons are imported).· Improved the default built-in Appearance ("Evil Chiaroscuro"). Evil Chiaroscuro is now sexy beyond belief. Gimme some of that dark gray metal baby, give it to me hard, ohhh yeah.· Started implementation of a Scale feature that will allow for bigger (higher resolution) Appearances to be created. Not finished, so disabled for now.· Added graph colors for future use.· The text color in the Images panel is disabled for items that do not use it.· Added ability to change background color of image scrollers.· Color choosers are now drawn using their own set of images, instead of abusing Focus Box.· Misc minor bug fixes and improvements.Requirements:· Any Haxial application.
