For the combo popups, it says 768x500, is it height or width first?
It's HeightxWidth, but usually It should be Width xHeight.

You probably have a custom menu-background image in your skin, try to remove it and see if that would work

I am not sure if someone has asked but I have a question about default numbers and score numbers. Is there a simple way to create them? Is there a recommended font size maybe or typical creation for these? I seem to always make the numbers too small and they are unevenly spaced due to the different width of the shapes of the numbers.

You can use numbers from other skin as a reference (I usually do this if I want to make a skin-element, including the numbers). For spacing, You can add these lines in Your skin.ini :
[Fonts]
HitCirclePrefix: default
HitCircleOverlap: *number*

ScorePrefix: score
ScoreOverlap: *number*
*number* : the number You add for spacing, higher number = closer spacing

Does anyone know if it is possible to prevent stretching of the button-middle element on the mod screen?

It's not possible to prevent stretching for button-middle. In fact, both button-left and button-right are scalable but not stretchable. These two elements are resizable by width, as button-middle can be used as 1 px which is resizable by osu! defined sizes.

You can try to use a wider button-middle to avoid long stretches.

HitCircleOverlap: *number*

ScoreOverlap: *number*
*number* : the number You add for spacing, higher number = closer spacing
I was just wondering what font size and if i should re-adjust the image size of my numbers so that they are not dis-positioned (some numbers higher than other numbers on the score line).

There is no typical recommended font size since fonts are different and they have different sizes. But I will tell you how I do numbers.
First most important is height of numbers for score try not do go over 45px (90px for HD), for default number try to keep them around 45-55px (90px-110px for HD) size but that's up to you.
Width doesn't really matters here since you can manipulate distance between numbers with skin.ini.

You need a good font that doesn't have numbers with different size, it will make your work much harder. I would like to recommend making your numbers large on new workspace and later, resize and copy them into selected numbers.
When you have your numbers ready, resize them to proper size (just do few tries to see with one will fit your desired height) and save them as correct numbers.

Now you would need some corrections.
First of we need to check if height is proper. Just open one of the numbers (0 for example) and put other numbers onto it, compare and see with one need corrections.

For width, reduce any empty space of canvas you have on them and lave 1-2 px of free space on both sides. As below :



Rest of width problems you can correct via skin.ini

Yes you can. When used with V2+ skins the trick to remove slider-ends also removes note fade-out.

No, even in V2+, although the fadeout is quicker.

The trick is to use hitnumbers as hitcircles, which by look truncates slidertails and also removes the zoom transition (it will fade instead)

Replace the image named "mode-osu-small.png" with a transparent 1x1 png file.

Hello! ^w^

I'm trying to modify my skin for Taiko, but there is something I don't know if it's possible to do.

I would like to know if it's possible to make 1 unique face for all the red notes and 1 unique face for all the blue notes.

Example all the red notes would have this face:

And all the blue notes would have this face:


Is it possible to do? And if so, how can I do that?

Thank you for answering my question ^w^
Haskorion
nope. you can only differentiate for normal notes and big notes, not for red or blue.

In the ski.ini there's Color customization. It goes by RGB, so for example: 225,225,225 would be white, Etc.

Is selection-selectoptions.png used anymore? It and -over are in the default skin template I have, but I don't see it anywhere?

The feature was removed. So this element isn't used anymore.

Can someone help me with my ranking panel not meeting with the upper panel? I've tried resizing it, but it keeps leaving a gap(where the cursor is). I have also tried it on other skins and the panels seem to meet (or overlap) for them. :?

OsuMe65
It's hopeless. Version: 2+ skins have that anchor.

Resize the ranking panel to 1366x768 and see if that works. If not, try resizing several pixels higher than 1366x768.

I've tried that. Unfortunately it only moves the panel down, blocking the statistics. :(

If that's the case, then it can't be helped :cry:
Off to plan B if it can't be truly solved! :lol:

Or you can also try to switch to skin version 1.

No luck there either.
For now, I'll settle with a gradient blend until I find a solution. I'll welcome any other ideas you might have. Thank you for the help. :)
