Could you add an option to switch between list and wraplist for vertical menu? RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - Tgxcorporation - 2014-04-30 (2014-04-28, 22:27)nooryani84 Wrote: Very nice!

Fantastic skin. I have to say that I was more centered in WIP skins (developed for gotham version from the begining), but I am very happy to have discovered your skin, with hundred of ways of configuration, perfect font size for my tv (32") in all the menus, etc.. Thank you. And in my personal view, I would like to know if it is possible to add a couple of things: - Possibility to change the selection border colour, to be it more visible in a quick view, for example in the home menu widgets (in progress, random, etc...) - And some addons for streaming channels have a long titles. Would it be possible to add some list view with more space for the titles?. Thanks again.

In version 1.1, the selection border is more visible. However, i'm planning to add the possibility to change the highlighted color.

I know this is one of the weak points of the skin. It's not easy. I'll try my best for the next release. Thanks Tgx RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - cdonnie - 2014-05-02 Nice nice !!! I can see that i can add 10 shelf items, but i use it on android, and use it to launch my android applications. Is it possible to expand it to 20 ? That would be so cool man! RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - mrfattbill - 2014-05-02 Sat down this morning to listen to some music and noticed I now have the updated version....one problem I no longer get any of the visualizations while while listening, I just the the default backdrop. Thanks Bill RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - Tgxcorporation - 2014-05-02 (2014-05-02, 19:38)mrfattbill Wrote: Sat down this morning to listen to some music and noticed I now have the updated version....one problem I no longer get any of the visualizations while while listening, I just the the default backdrop. Once you are in Music Playing screen, just press "ok" or "return" on your control device and the Music OSD will appear as in the screenshot. The last 4 icons on the top of the screen control visualizations. The first icon controls the "Artist Slideshow" plugin. The second enables visualizations The 3rd pops up visualization settings The last one is for visualization presets. Hope it works! Tgx RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - mrfattbill - 2014-05-03 The ONLY way I get it is if i have "Background music visualization/video player on home screen" set to yes, but the visualization is still on top of that multicolored screen instead of just a black backround.

Yes. Actually there is a problem with the "Background music visualization/video player on home screen" label. It should be "Enable background music visualization/video player". It's now ok in the latest revision. Regarding the black background with visualizations. The version 1.0 of the skin planned a black background beneath visualizations. The 1.1 version instead displays the default background. If you want a black background you have to: - go to your Userdata folder - enter the "addons/skin.blackglassnova" folder - edit the file "Includes.xml" file and replace the line n.34 "<visible>[Player.HasVideo] + Skin.HasSetting(Show_Player)</visible>" with "<visible>[[Player.HasVideo]|[Player.HasAudio]] + Skin.HasSetting(Show_Player)</visible>" - save the file Thanks Tgx RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - Tgxcorporation - 2014-05-05 (2014-05-02, 11:56)cdonnie Wrote: I can see that i can add 10 shelf items, but i use it on android, and use it to launch my android applications.

Thanks Tgx RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - nuttypro69 - 2014-05-05 Hey Tgxcorporation love this skin looks so good on my Raspbeerry Pi .Thanks so much RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - Endemoniada - 2014-05-06 Very attractive skin. Congratulations. One query re: fonts. It's not possible to select anything but 'skin default' although it states 1/3. My only issue with the default is that numbers aren't fix width so when elapsed time is showing the numbers move about (pet hate of mine).

My only issue with the default is that numbers aren't fix width so when elapsed time is showing the numbers move about (pet hate of mine). The skin is relatively new and for the moment i've planned to use only a font. I'll try to fix the width of numbers for the next release. Thanks Tgx RE: Black Glass Nova 1.1 - Gotham - PeteB - 2014-05-07 Hi....Would it be possible to display country specific MPAA ratings? eg: I use ember to create .nfo files and have country specific rating ie: <mpaa>Australia:M</mpaa>. I already have the icons for this. Also, would it be possible to display the IMDB top250 number. This is the tag used in the .nfo file <top250>99</top250> |
