Setting the global skin from lua

[KillTheMule]

Hey, thanks for masque!

I'm looking for the ability to set the global skin (i.e. the functionality I get from opening the options, choosing the "Global" category and selecting a skin from the dropdown menu) from lua code. Is that exposed somehow? If not, can anyone suggest what to do? I'm kinda pondering mucking with the savedvars and call Masque:OnEnable(), but that's of course kinda hacky ...

Thanks for any pointers :)

The root ("Global") group is unavailable externally. All you can do is set the skin for each add-on individually (which will propagate to sub-groups), assuming you know which add-ons are enabled in Masque.

Hey thanks for your answer! I'm fine with skinning addons individually. Am I right assuming I need to call API:GetGroupByID(addonname) to get the group for the addon? I'm however unclear how to set the skin on that, seeing that the functions used in the config options are not exposed externally. Could you give me a hint on that? Thanks in advance :)

You can use that API function. If that doesn't work, just use the Group function and pass the add-on name. To set the skin, use Group:__Set("SkinID", "NameOfSkin").

That works nicely, thanks a bunch!
