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

Quote: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.

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

DialogFullScreenInfo.xml

Video Information Screen:

DialogVideoInfo.xml

Hope that helps Laugh

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

There's a link to a video in the first or second post in this thread. Or just install it and play with it, it's not like one skin will impact another...

You've been pointed to the files - maybe you aren't explaining yourself well enough. What EXACTLY are you trying to change?

as i said before, i'm attempting to modify the full-screen info. yes, i was pointed to the DialogFullScreenInfo.xml, but it only contains the code for the upper part of the display, along with includes for OSD_Progress_Bar2, OSD_Player_Details, OSD_Player_Time and MediaInfoVideoPlayer. where do i have to go in order to modify the lower part of the display, like in the mockups i posted? in the Includes.xml? changes made there aren't showing up in the skin.
