I didn't add 'return' to the other views because there'd be no way of getting to 'Genres', 'Studios', 'Actors', etc.

I love the progress of Alaska and the fix that was recently applied to hide the media flags for sets on the movie menu, which leads me to the next logical question about sets. Does xbmc allow for a way to prevent repeating entries when viewing a set of less than 7? I know this has been looked at recently, but not sure where it stands at the moment. It looks pretty ugly when you see repeats when viewing a smaller movie set such a trilogy.

Keep up the great work everyone!

Look for <onclick>ActivateWindow(MyVideoLibrary,movietitles)</onclick>
Add ",return" after movietitles
Do the same for <onclick>ActivateWindow(MyVideoLibrary,tvshowtitles)</onclick>

Thanks a million! Just what I was looking for Smile

The Aeon threads had this same discussion afew months ago and the engine either allows a fixed list or not. Unless svn changes have been made then it's still the status quo.

It's something I've been wanting for a while now but alas not possible.
Hitcher Wrote:So I can't choose between a fixedlist and a wraplist based on the number of items in those lists then?

jmarshall Wrote:I suspect not, correct. It's chicken and the egg - the control has to be filled before it knows how many items it has in it (and thus become visible or hidden), and it has to be visible to be filled.

Cheers,

Are wraplists that good? I don't find any problem with the fixed lists used for the seasons (apart from not being able to jump from one end to the other anymore... any reason that was disabled?). I think I could live with fixed lists throughout the poster views.

I made a port of _someone_'s dark PlexAlaska theme. Link

Extract the zip into XBMC\skin\Alaska. PM me with any questions/suggestions/fixes you have.

For the developers, I listed the media files I edited here I also edited backdrops/filter.png because the old filter graphic worked better for this theme.

Really nice work and love how this skin is coming along. In fact with this color scheme its now my default skin over Hitchers Aeon mod.....

Kudos to Hitcher and crew...

Really nice color scheme.. nice! Would be nice if one could toggle between a few diff color schemes like this darker blueish one and the white redish..

Great work.. Smile

Thats exactly what it allows you to do, select color schemes under the appearance settings. He just listed the files modified for the developers...
