A couple of suggestions, if you don't mind The shelf navigation feels wrong with a horizontal menu. It's an up press to get to it, then it switches to left/right to switch between tv/movie/music shelves (and up/down to navigate between items). I suspect it would feel more natural if it was switched so that up/down switched between the different shelves, and left/right between items on the shelf. I had to change the shelf items before they would show up (e.g. just selecting "Enable shelf" doesn't work - I have to "Enable shelf", then change the item type for each Movie/TV/Music before they'll show). Only needs to be done the first time when enabling shelf, and I vaguely remember having the same issue with reFocus proper. Finally, you could remove &mode=single from the skinshortcuts build commands, as they're needed only for reFocus proper's menu with all items in a single list - it'll marginally speed up the menu building, and reduce the size of the resulting includes file. - There's also no need to run the script on back on the main menu, again that's only needed for reFocus' single list menu. Edit: One more, for maximum XBMC compatibility (although tbh I don't know whether it'd cause any issues, it's just how every addon is named), might be worth changing the addon id in addon.xml and the folder containing the skin to "skin.refocus.horizontal" Keep up the fantastic work! RE: [MOD] reFocus horizontal - newsilentsilver - 2014-06-28 Nice work. Is there a way to reduce or remove the opacity? On small screens (I have a 26'') the menu items are hardly readable because of the opacity ... RE: [MOD] reFocus horizontal - removed151214 - 2014-06-28 I hate getting the quote and edit buttons mixed up. Grr But seeing as I've added an extra post here, it looks like the opacity is set for the main menu by base4 and base5, and for the submenu by Color8, in the %skin%/colors/Default.xml file - the first two characters adjust how much transparency there is in hex, from 00 (0 in decimal) for completely transparent to FF (255 in decimal) for not-transparent-at-all. They're all at aa at the moment (170), so adjust upwards from there to get the desired effect. (Google is good at converting decimal to hex!)

Sure. There is the code PHP Code: RunScript(script.skinshortcuts,type=buildxml&mode=single&mainmenuID=9110) in the files Home.xml, SkinSettings.xml and script-skinshortcuts.xml. This is what causes the script to build the menu. In every case, this could be: PHP Code: RunScript(script.skinshortcuts,type=buildxml&mainmenuID=9110) Because the mode=single bit tells the script to build all the menu items in a single list, as used by the unmodded reFocus. As I said, without it the menu should build ever-so-slightly faster, and the file that the script is building will be smaller. Also in HomeMenu.xml - line 143 - you still have PHP Code: <onback>RunScript(script.skinshortcuts,type=hidesubmenu&mainmenuID=9110)</onback> This is what causes the submenu items to hide in the unmodded reFocus (and makes sure the correct item is then focused), and can be removed when you're using two separate lists for the main and the submenus. Neither are particular problems, by the way - your mod works, and will continue to work, really well with them in. They're just not necessary if you're only providing the horizontal menu. One other thing - you probably don't want to include the file script-skinshortcuts-includes.xml when you distribute your mod. This is the file that contains your own custom menus. The skin shortcuts script will build this file itself. Hope that's clearer. (2014-06-28, 17:41)Seque Wrote:(2014-06-28, 15:02)Unfledged Wrote: Keep up the fantastic work!I'll try....

Have you any idea to change de order? Rearrange their order in the grouplist. You can also play with button 99999 to change the order that they focus (which may help to ensure the last item in the grouplist is focused, so that pressing up isn't jumping from the first-to-the-last item which I suspect is causing the bad-looking scroll you mentioned.)
