Is it possible to set a conditional position, height / width of a control based on a skin setting?
I'd like to reposition a bunch of controls based on a skin setting and would rather not duplicate each control with it's adjusted settings, then set a visible condition.

Ideally I'm looking to do something like this;

<Control type="image">
<posx condition=Skin.HasSetting(setting)>300</posx>
<posx condition=!Skin.HasSetting(setting)>600</posx>
...
</Control>

Can something like that be achieved ?

look at the wiki for animations eg: slide, zoom etc.

Thanks, unless I'm missing something I can't see how I'd manage to change control height / width via animations.
It probably wasn't really clear in my example but I need to move the controls and make them wider based on the skin setting.

maybe you could use the new <height>auto</height> and <width>auto</width> feature of Gotham. it may be worth a try.

In Includes.xml

Code:

<include name="MyWidth1">
    <width>1200</width>
</include>
<include name="MyWidth2">
    <width>1000</width>
</include>

In your Control replace the <width> with:

Code:

<include condition="!Skin.HasSetting(MySetting)">MyWidth1</include>
<include condition="Skin.HasSetting(MySetting)">MyWidth2</include>

Code:

<include name="MyWidth1">
    <width>1200</width>
</include>
<include name="MyWidth2">
    <width>1000</width>
</include>

In your Control replace the <width> with:

Code:

<include condition="!Skin.HasSetting(MySetting)">MyWidth1</include>
<include condition="Skin.HasSetting(MySetting)">MyWidth2</include>

Remember, if you change the setting while still viewing the window referenced by the setting - for example, toggling info in for a list view - you'll have to refresh the skin since conditions are only checked on opening the window.
