Well, just think that because of those additional 3 images and 6 lines (5 coordinates + header) in configuration files, ALL of the current skins would need to be changed to accommodate the additional controls. I'm counting in my skins folder 8 current skins, about a dozen with all the modified skins I have, plus a few more of my own that I started working on.
So, to sum it up for just a moment, what started as a simple idea now turned into the following changes:
- Code change: modifying the measurement system; modifying the display capability to 4 digits
- Configuration changes: 6 more lines to add for each skin
- File changes: creating/adding and modifying image files for spinners, display numbers and loop switch, creating additional space for them (somewhere) for 12+ skins, including mods (I don't know the exact number, just the ones I have)

Teksonik wrote:Any new feature is going to require some new code and quite possibly some new gui elements as well so that shouldn't even be a consideration. Whether the feature requires 5 lines of code or 500 shouldn't matter as much as how useful the feature will be to the most users. I'm not saying I'd use this feature but I'm speaking of feature requests in general. They're all going to require some work.......whether or not they are worth the work is another matter......so counting lines of code or the number of skins that will be modified is kind of pointless as any progress will require some work.
