Sorry - there isn't a single view that uses boxes now and it will not be added by me. You are more than welcome to modify it to include it.

My only request is for some Music Video views. Otherwise, I'm loving all the new work done. Thanks Amra and Stoli!

Music Views.... - hogfan - 2012-02-15

Glad to hear you've been working on music views. Will there be an Albums view with just a horizontal row of the album covers for each album by an artist? This was one of my favorite views in shade at the album level. We sorted ascending, by year, you could just go through the entire discography in order.

I am loving this skin and it has become my new default. VERY clean and functional, with just enough eye-candy but not cluttered.

Also, one thing I did noticed that may have been fixed already......in the System info screen of Metropolis, the XBMC build information and cpu usage progress bar are not displayed. Currently, in order to check my build, I have to switch over to Confluence temporarily.

Video Information while playing video pressing " i " you need to look for:

DialogFullScreenInfo.xml

Video Information Screen:

DialogVideoInfo.xml

Hope that helps Laugh

I'll have to see how that is done - it's a relatively new feature I believe. Is that Confluence in your screen shot?

I'll take a look at Shade and see...

There are a few dialogs like that I have yet to work on...

actually, the code for the lower part of the video info is located into the Includes.xml. the DialogFullScreenInfo.xml contains an includes line that redirects to that file (dunno if i'm using the right terms Laugh).

yes this is from confluence. If u can do this at metropolis skin it would be great Smile

hey!

great skin, I have a rather annoying issue though...
hitting 'music' always directs me to 'artists' instead of 'albums' regardless of what setting I use in the options.

dunno if it's just not implemented yet, a bug or somehow my fault. any hint appreciated. Smile

is there an updated video.of this skin? I like stoli work and want to see if I should change feom neon to this skin but want to see it in action.
