It selects if the vu meter shows the level before the level fader (as default with most mixers) or after (so it will show silence if the level fader/crossfader is down)

The user had the choice of what to select

We had the choice in 2018 and we need the choice now too . It's a user selection

There is no plan currently to add this in the 2020 skin, it is however not very difficult to modify the 2020 skin yourself and change this.

ii spoke to support and they told me they would add it .

Why
not re add something that was already there ?

How do we add it by modifying the skin exactly ?

I have add it in my Skin , I can change it in the Mixer Options (little Button over the Crossfader).
I find it also userful the VUs to change for what I need , when I work ;-)
My Controller has also this VU Option on the Channel VU.
Its a good practical thing :-)

This is not something trivial, needs some work
here is a generic example of the structure (extracted of 8 decks skins) of the mod :

<define class="vb_vumeters" placeholders="*x,*y,*width,*height=[WIDTH]*4,*deck=0,chan=">
<group name="vumeter[DECK]" x="-[WIDTH]/3+[X]" y="[Y]">
<square x="-5" y="-5" width="[WIDTH]*5/12" height="[HEIGHT]+10" color="vb_vumeterbg" radius="6" />
<menu width="11+2+11" height="[HEIGHT]+10">
<item text="Show vu meter" action="skin_panel 'vu_output[DECK]' on" check="skin_panel 'vu_output[DECK]'" />
<item text="Show output levels" action="skin_panel 'vu_meter[DECK]' on" check="skin_panel 'vu_meter[DECK]'" />
</menu>
<panel name="vu_meter[DECK]" group="vumeter[DECK]" visible="no">
<visual source="deck [DECK] get_vu_meter_left [CHAN]" class="vb_vumeter" width="[WIDTH]*5/12" height="[HEIGHT]"/>
<visual x="+13" source="deck [DECK] get_vu_meter_right [CHAN]" class="vb_vumeter" width="[WIDTH]*5/12" height="[HEIGHT]"/>
</panel>
<panel name="vu_output[DECK]" group="vumeter[DECK]" visible="yes">
<visual source="deck [DECK] get_level_left [CHAN]" class="vb_vumeter" width="[WIDTH]*5/12" height="[HEIGHT]"/>
<visual x="+13" source="deck [DECK] get_level_right [CHAN]" class="vb_vumeter" width="[WIDTH]*5/12" height="[HEIGHT]"/>
</panel>
</group>
</define>

adapt (for a one master deck : remove all deck references and position computation and & copy <visuals>...</visual> and x="" y="" from your skin)
i.e. in default/:essentials skin
line 1408 for mixer
line 1430 for video

Please, can everybody stop quoting (and nesting) entire messages from previous posts, when the post is immediately above, and it's obvious who you're replying to?

Thank you

No idea what you mean

I'm sure to you that's hilarious.

Chances of me helping you modify the skin now = zero. Well done.

Ok
