Hi stoli

I love the new views, can you add the watched overlays to these ones too?

I think they don't display it in multiplex, cover flow, panel and wrap

another quick thing: in tvshow's episode view it doesn't display the imdb rating...can you add it somewhere?

thanks man love your work!!

hey stoli !
Neon is one awesome skin. love it !
One feature I would request is Movie Sets in the Movies submenu.
I could not find it (if it has been already implemented). My apologies if it has been implemented or if it has been requested.
cheers

Do you mean from the main menu? If so, I'm not sure I really see a value in that...


Touch interface - GHP3 - 2011-08-24 00:48

I love this skin. Great job!

I have recently got a tablet and I am trying to run XBMC with the neon skin on it. The scrolling is great with the touch interface, and almost everything works great.

However, in order to get into movies, I can't simply tap the movies bar, I have to touch right below it and then slide over to the files tab under it. Also, flipping through the movies works great, but when I want to choose a movie, I can't just tap it, because that takes me deeper into the folder structure for some reason, I have to tap and hold, then click movie information, and then tap play.

If there was any way to make it so that tapping the Movies or TV tab would take you straight to the respective library, similar to simply hitting enter on the keyboard, it would make it much smoother. Also, when tapping a movie, if that could either take you straight to playing the movie, or to the movie information page, that would also make this skin perfect for touch screens.

I haven't yet done any tweaking for touch interfaces and honestly I'm not sure I will as it will take an extensive amount of time. Having said that, I know there is work underway to better support touch interfaces, so that may make things easier in the future.

+1 on this...at least from the standpoint of how movie sets are displayed in the Movie menu. I believe there is an add-on that some skins have integrated. In Neon, I use the view the show the plot summary, fanart, and 2 extrathumbs at the top and movie cases at the bottom. With movie sets, the top portion of the screen is unpopulated. I would at least display some fanart, all the titles that are in movie set and the extra thumbs.


Missing letters in Home menu (Spanish language) - barramundi - 2011-08-27 21:19

When language used is Spanish the unfocused home menu elements with accents miss accented letters, showing 'V DEOS' instead of 'VÍDEOS', 'PEL CULAS' instead of 'PELÍCULAS', and so

Easy to solve using Font_Neon_45 instead of Font_Neon_45Caps in line 31of Includes_Home_Horizontal.xml

Great Skin, goes flawlessly in atom, and the design is clear as water, i love it. Thank you Stoli.

Farewell

Thanks,

updated to Git... no more large/small recently added, just one view now.
