Hi,
After having generated the code for the chosen options and having closed the RetroCSS application, is it possible when reopening the program to load the previous settings (or 'open' the exported CSS file) in order to further alter colors and/or other previous settings that were made before?

Welcome and hello Nimuë.  Yes, that's possible, but I've given up on it since it took a lot of extra time but also because the skins can easily be reconstructed. In any case thank you for the suggestion. I suggest you to download version 1.5. Today's version is exactly how this program was supposed to be from the beginning. In recent days I have lost a lot of free time on correcting certain errors in program because no one who has used the program did not send feedback about problems. The first is a Kombivan and I thank him once again. In version 1.5, which was written from scratch, I removed unnecessary things like normal wrapper (full wrapper is default in this version) and I left the possibility of parallel use of the Tapatalk options from the "Customize Look & Feel", so now the Cover image frame can be placed and removed with one click, and the admins have the full access to the customize-sub-forum button now. This version of the program is a serious design tool for the Tapatalk forums. |

Thank you for your prompt reaction! I'll download the new version 1.5 right-away.
I agree that the skin can be reconstructed fairly easy, i.e. when you use the basis colors. But if you make use of a CSS/HTML color picker for subtle shade differences and later on want to make slight changes, it would be helpful - I think - if there also were an IMPORT button for the previously exported CSS file so the previously made skin can be loaded and is already available, so merely a few alterations can be made to the elements you're not yet 100% content with.

I promise you that this will be a part of some future version because this program is finally done right. And I can't promise when it will be because it takes a lot of free time. As I said, that there were feedback, this would be over in the first days. The Export button was primarily introduced for the web masters, for the people who are hosting their phpbb forums on a server (self-hosted), because on such forums the CSS codes are mostly loaded from an external CSS file. Greetings. |

Thank You Admin that means a lot to me. Your font sizes were working it was Skwerls that stopped working.

KombivanLike I said before: The possibility of re-importing the code into the program is currently not possible. I recently wrote about it HERE, in response to the same question.
