Hi g200kg,
I hope all is well.
I have been having a small problem that just started to happen. I have been creating some very large GUI's with a couple of hundred layers, I have had an occasional crash but I know now what some of those little bugs are and avoid them and goes well for the most part. But I started a new GUI and all of the sudden I'm getting a run time errors every couple of changes or new primatives that I make. I'll be good for a few layers and then I'll try to change the color and it has a run time error. I think it happens most often when I try to change the color. In the image below you can see the color picker is blank that is because I was selecting a color for the layer when the runtime error occured. Sometime when I change the color skinman will just go blank and shut down but that is not often, only once or twice, its mostly the runtime error and this has occured many times now.
I have textures added to most of the layers I'm using them heavy on this so I'm thinking that might be the problem I don't know. I'll try to just export the skin to a .png and start and new canvas with that in hopes it avoids some of these problems. I'm not a programmer nor very smart concerning computers in general so I have no idea why this happens on this one project and not the others. I do have a descent graphics card but a rather small ram for the computer, I don't know if the ram is the is the problem or not, but I have some other guis that are very large both in size and amount of layers being used and they don't do this.
Jonathan

edit: I did export the background to a .png and then converted the knobs to .pngs as well. Opened a new canvas and loaded the images in. only simple things going on now but I am still getting a run time error. Is it my computer or a correction in the files? Its not doing this on the other projects I have.

thank you for your concern
I'm fine. but these few weeks I have been busy because of some (obon) religious rites.

use the "Insert Image"

instead of "Insert New Knob"

"Insert New Knob" create a new knob from scratch.
"Insert image" import a existing .knob (or other image-files).
In addition,
once created or imported, "Edit Image/Knob" from R-click menu will start editing by KnobMan.

yes,that works.
is there any way to select a position of the knob?
cos i'm using drawbars which you can't see when in their first position,and only gauge their height when in the last position.
