Hi,
I just started to tweak Estuary skin, and make a version for low-power device such as my old RPI.
I'll try to remove not necessary animation (such as focused item zoom for example), and maybe display less widgets row by default.
So I'd like to know what are the most demanding render parts , and where to put my efforts:
I spent some hours this afternoon to read the code, but a lot of stuffs seems complicated for me.
For example, to display focused poster item border, it's a combinaison of texture+border+bordertexture!
If I remove all animations, would it be more simple and less time consumming to just draw a "plain color rectangle" before the image?
I'll try to read the "skinning manual" tonight, and find answers.
But I'd appreciate to have advice about the way to go to 'reduce' estuary skin.
Thanks

- animations (slide, zoom, transition, fade...)
- image composition (use buttons/overlays for border vs plain color, use alpha and gradient, ....)
- mouse support
