XWindows Dock 5.6

you should install new version to a new folder, but you can try to copy DockItems.xml.

skins have a new format, so all previous skins must be re-generated (they’re NOT compatible!)

run XWD with default skin, then look into .SkinsCurrent folder for examples of new PNGs that are needed.

docklets have a new API, so all previous docklets developers will have to migrate them before they can be used again.

What’s the purpose of Mask*.png files in a skin?

They’re used for determining how to show windows reflection on the panel. If you don’t want that the dock shows relfection on some places of your skin panel, you should use 100% transparency.

You can also create reflection gradients. For that you should create gradients from white to black or from black to white wink.gif . Black is used to instruct the dock where reflection should be painted, while white is where it shouldn’t.

For a better understanding of it, you should unpack some skins from .Skins and look at what its mask*.png files look like and then see the resulting effect when running the dock.
