Hi S.Brandt.
Now that you mention Outline... the whole Wiki instructions about skins
were written around Outline.
As I found out, it was made with the now deprecated tag, fixed
positioning (not resizable), so the skin itself is not exactly a good
example anymore, but we should think about those

Not yet. Here are my Netbook Test results:

* Shade 7 s
* Tango 59 s
* Deere 2.1 32 s
Deere 2.1 issues:
* To big for maximized, view. Window decoration and task bar at too

I do not see anything different from a "cart wall player" and a grid of
samplers other than the name. Cart wall software displays more
information at a glance on the samplers like user defined color coding.
Those features do not yet exist in Mixxx. It would be nice to add them
and not just for
Hi everyone,
I think a dedicated "carts-only" skin, with only samplers and library
access, could be an interesting addition for radio people, as this category
of users would not be immediately interested by the DJing decks while
looking for a cartwall software. I quickly tweaked LateNight to add
Hi,
I have found a good reference for a card wall player I had in mind:

instead of putting this into Deere and Tango. On the other hand It will

I see we have oppinions for each and every side.
I thought that Shade was the only really useless skin, as a leftover from
older versions and now I read one of the main developers is actually using
it, either partially or fully.
When moving from 1.11 (only a few months) to 1.12/2.0 I also felt

Fader start is not a skin issue. I think a big wall clock would probably be
better served by an actual wall clock rather than a computer screen. Deere
