RE: Unifying dialogs so simply skinning - Alex... - 2014-05-12
The list is based on Gotham and to be honest I only checked for the changes posted by Ronie in the Changes to the skinning engine for XBMC Helix thread, so I wonder what else I missed.

As far as I know, 41-47 aren't used, so I guess it would be ok. 48 and 49 are used in DialogKeyboard.xml for digit keys (unless that changed).

Any news on this ?
Dialogs are, from what I gather, the most painful things to code in XBMC, and the main reason we have so much unfinished skins.
Having them simplified would ease the job of skinners.
Bunching dialogs would be great to. MassIV made a first list here : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=159328&pid=1435987#pid1435987
It's good to see how much XBMC development evolves and is optimized.

Yes there is progress. You can follow here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=194515
For example, you can see the button id's are being changed so they are the same in all dialogs.
