Color Definitions - ZexisStryfe - 2014-09-07
I am using a color picker to set the accent color to the string "accent.color". I have text in my skin that uses the color definition "Accent". It doesn't seem possible to set this to a string or variable. Is there a workaround? This is needed in particular for labels in which I have two colors in one label (for example movie name (white) movie year (accent) ).

Have you read the wiki entry?
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Label_control
'textcolor Specifies the color the text should be, in hex AARRGGBB format, or a name from the colour theme.'

Pretty sure you can't use a variable.

Right, I get that. I was curious if there was a work around. I clarified my original post a bit.

Also I noticed this is in the wrong forum- can a mod move it to Skin Development forum?
