BAT-MAIL.DE.VU - Batskin.XML Documentation

<bitmaps>...</bitmaps>

this sub-section is used to define a number of used bitmap files. It must contain at least one bitmap entry:

<bitmap id="ID" file="FILE" cropx="CROPX" cropy="CROPY" cropwidth="CROPWIDTH" cropheight="CROPHEIGHT" />

Such entries will define, what bitmap files will be used as source for used graphics. ID here is an unique user-defined Id for this bitmap to be referenced later in Batskin.xml, FILE is a file name of used bitmap file, supported formats are .PNG, .BMP, .JPG. In case of .PNG-file, alpha layer will be used for transparent areas. In case of .JPG-file the transparent areas will be defined by top-left pixel color - this color will become "transparent" color.
In case of .BMP-file, if source bitmap is 32-bit with alpha, alpha layer will be used to define transparency, otherwise top-left pixel will define transparency.
CROPX/CROPY/CROPWIDTH/CROPHEIGHT are optional integer values, which define used portion of the loaded bitmap. Sometimes source bitmap may be bigger than needed. This parameters allow user to crop the picture to needed size when loaded, in a way similar to Photoshop "Crop Image" function.

After <bitmaps> section follows required section:
<sizes> ... </sizes>

this sub-section is used to define sizes of glyph groups inside host program (The Bat!) It contains entries like<br>

<size id="GROUP_ID" width="WIDTH" height="HEIGHT" />

Such entries define sizes for different glyph groups used in host application. GROUP_ID values are predefined by host application and are listed in Appendix A.

Section <glyphs> define how actual glyphs are located in source bitmaps.

<glyphs> ... </glyphs>

Inside this section following sub-entries may be placed:

<source bitmap="BITMAP_ID" width="GLYPH_WIDTH" height="GLYPH_HEIGHT" />

Where BITMAP_ID should be exact ID parameter value of one of bitmaps in <bitmaps> section, GLYPH_WIDTH/GLYPH_HEIGHT define size of following glyph definitions.

<grid width="GRID_WIDTH" height="GRID_HEIGHT" xofs="XOFS" yofs="YOFS" />

One of batskin.xml concepts is to locate glyphs in a virtual grid cells. It works in such way:

Source bitmap is virtually divided into equal cells. Each cell may contain one glyph. References to glyphs are made using column and row numbers, starting with 0. GRID_WIDTH/GRID_HEIGHT define grid cell size. XOFS/YOFS define offset of each glyph inside grid cell, default to 0/0, if omitted.

<glyph id="GLYPH_ID" col="COL" row="ROW" xofs="XOFS" yofs="YOFS" width="GLYPH_WIDTH" height="GLYPH_HEIGHT" />

This entry defines one glyph to be used in host application. GLYPH_ID is an application-predefined value, listed in Appendix B. COL/ROW is position of the glyph in current virtual grid. XOFS/YOFS optional, overrides grid's values for this only glyph. GLYPH_WIDTH/GLYPH_HEIGHT optional, overrides <source> definition of glyph size.

<glyphex id="GLYPH_ID" file="FILE" xofs="XOFS" yofs="YOFS" width="GLYPH_WIDTH" height="GLYPH_HEIGHT" />

This entry defines one glyph from a separate file. FILE specifies the source file name. XOFS/YOFS optional, specifies starting (top-left) point of the glyph, default to (0, 0) GLYPH_WIDTH/GLYPH_HEIGHT optional, definition of glyph size
