Hello my friends, I am using the ifsogui mod and works perfect. I have one little question. The ifsoGui can change a complete theme at the beginning of the program using the GUI.LoadTheme function which changes whole theme , including all gadget skins. for example some gui skin in the root directory of the game there is a folder with name Gui_Skin and contains the fonts and graphics sub folders for whole theme. GUI.LoadTheme("Gui_Skin") So have a question , is it possible to change the skin of only one gadget on run time? I have seen all gadgets have the Loadskin method. If we assume I have one listbox and use this code: Global Inventory_Item_List:ifsoGUI_ListBox Inventory_Item_List = ifsoGUI_ListBox.Create(370, 450, 250, 140, "Inventory Item List") Inventory_Item_List.SetGadgetColor(255, 255, 255) Inventory_Item_List.SetShowFocus(False) Inventory_Item_List.SetTextColor(200, 200, 20) Inventory_Item_List.SetTransparent(True) There is and one method with name ".Loadskin" what argument needs to put in the .Loadskin to change only this gadget with a different skin , not the main theme. If we assume I have and one second folder with name "Gui_Skin2" which contains the fonts and graphics sub directories of a different skin, how to change only the skin of this gadget. Something like to have a main skin for whole ifsoGui theme , but some gadgets can have different skins or variations of the main skin. Thank you very much. :)

You should be able to do that just modifying the source. Try doing a back trace on how the them is applied and exclude the gadget that you like to have a different theme.

Is tricky , I will do some research , If I will not manage to do it , I will leave it as it is. Only one skin per gadget. The main theme.
