There is no way an arbitrary plugin could reasonably use any of the colors a skin has defined - it doesn't have any idea about what each color is actually used for! The only way a plugin might "blend in" usefully would be to open a cSkinDisplayMenu and draw some stuff into the "central area" of that menu. That way the "decorations" (like title, buttons etc) would be drawn in the skin specific way, while the actual content is up to the plugin to draw. I do plan to implement this possibility, but right now I'm still at the (audio) track stuff... Klaus
