Skin edit help for a noob - dandirk - 2008-10-26

oooo tay its my first post... Just found out xbmc is available on windows so been playing around with it all day...

I really like Aeon Showcase view, though I would like to tinker around with some things if someone could show me at least where to look...

I would be interested in performing 1 or more of the following to Showcase...

1. Reduce the size of the DVD covers (both non selected and selected)...

2. Remove the mirror effect at the bottom.

3. Remove/move the Title/genre at the bottom

4. lower the DVD posters closer to the bottom...


I have been dinking around in the includes.xml but seem to be 0 for 10 so far?

Am I in the right place or is there another XML that handles size and locations of these objects? I tried looking in Myvideo.xml but didn't really find much searching via the obvious object names aka genre or title...

All I really am looking for is the correct file name(s) and maybe a object or include name to search for, I am more then willing to do tons of trial and error...

You'll want to look in FullscreenViews.xml. The include name is Viewtype_Showcase. Good luck.

You might also want to check out the Horizonz mod to this skin as well. It adds a new "Info" view that sounds more like what you're looking for. It also fixes a lot of the loose ends that didn't quite get finished up in Aeon before djh got pulled away on his new Stark idea.
