Alternating Row Colors?

[0rac1e]

If you load the Classic skin in Winamp 5 and go to the Media Library, the rows have alternating row colors (provided you have the "use alternating row colors in list view when available" option ticked under Preferences > Media Library > Appearance.)

My question is, how to you achieve this is a classic skin? I've downloaded a bunch of classic skins and haven't seen it in any of them INCLUDING the Winamp5.51 Classic Base Skin.

Is this a trick only availble in the "Classic" classic skin because it's part of Winamp... or is there a way to do it in my classic skin?

in genex.bmp there is a load of pixel points on the top row, as of 5.55, pixel @ 0,92 is the alternate item background and pixel @ 0,94 is the alternate item foreground colour. if these are not present then it'll just revert to 0,48 and 0,50 respectively.

I *always* bloody forget about those 4 extra pixels...

AHH! Thanks heaps! Couldn't find this info anywhere.\

It all seems so obvious now. I had tried adding pixels below the existing ones, but didn't think to try adding them to the end of the line *slaps forehead*

Thanks again.

I have the same problem but after changing pixels at @ 0,92 and 0.94 nothing changes. Should I do anything else ? Preferences option to alternate colors is checked. Attached is my GEN file.

chupetoide: it should be in genex.bmp, not gen.bmp as i incorrectly typed in my response (only taken 14months to have that noticed).
