I hope this doesn't become one of those controversial issues like whether Flex should issue forward looking statements. There really isn't much room for controversy because it's one of those things where everyone can be happy. Yes, everyone.
I am not going to go through the specifics here, but it's possible to edit the Flex skins. A simple graphics editor like Photoshop or Paint will do the trick. There area ton of instructions out there telling you which file represents which section on the main form. You can change the color of buttons, the panadaptor background, pretty much everything. I have seen people with pictures of their XYL or grand kids as their panadaptor background. At least the guy said it was his XYL when I asked. She looked a lot like a supermodel and she wasn't wearing much but... You can add the Flex logo, your call sign, or anything else to your radio. One reason why I am glad that the logo is no longer on the default file is because, depending on the size of your screen and whether or not you use the full screen for the Flex, the logo graphic will skew. These things depend on a specific aspect ratio to keep their shape. If you're not using that ratio, they look funky. It's much easier to find out how you are going to be displaying the main form and adjust your graphic from there. Ham Radio is a hands on hobby. Some of us raise the hood and fiddle with the electronics. In the SDR world, we get to mess with the software and computer interface. Experimentation is what causes us to advance and develop new stuff to experiment with. Oh, and before I forget, thanks to the Flex team for a great new release. It was a quick, seamless install that worked right out of the box. 73, -- Steve Miller w6sdm.net _______________________________________________ Flexedge mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexedge_flex-radio.biz This is the FlexRadio Systems e-mail Reflector called FlexEdge.
