Im trying to create a xbmc manual / how to based on transparency's credits section

[Image: 20120726_220754.jpg]

so basically i want to insert images between those texts,
i know page control only works with textbox and lists type,
but i cant call an image from grouplist type, can anyone guide me?

why dont i use pdf? i've tried running adobe reader using executor and adv plugin, it takes longg time to load then it freezes and i have to stop the reader..
and i need some kind of how to in my language, its necessary because this is for public usage.

Why, can't you use an image in a grouplist, again? The following code should do what you're after. What it's doing is throwing all controls one after the last vertically which is what I guess you want? Just keep repeating image > text > image > text. The scrollbar will adjust accordingly.

Code:

<control type="group">

                <posx>470</posx>

                <posy>40</posy>

                <control type="label">

                    <posx>0</posx>

                    <posy>-50</posy>

                    <width min="20" max="530">auto</width>

                    <height>100</height>

                    <label>Overview</label>

                    <font>Menu-Scroll</font>

                    <textcolor>Label_Dark</textcolor>

                    <aligny>top</aligny>

                    <wrapmultiline>true</wrapmultiline>

                    <scrollspeed>0</scrollspeed>

                </control>

                <control type="grouplist">

                    <posx>0</posx>

                    <posy>0</posy>

                    <width>700</width>

                    <height>532</height>

                    <pagecontrol>80</pagecontrol>

                    <onright>50</onright>

                    <onleft>50</onleft>

                    <orientation>vertical</orientation>

                    <usecontrolcoords>true</usecontrolcoords>

                    <itemgap>10</itemgap>

                    <control type="image">

                        <posx>0</posx>

                        <posy>0</posy>

                        <width>700</width>

                        <height>340</height>

                        <texture background="true" aligny="top">$INFO[Listitem.Property(Fanart_Image)]</texture>

                        <aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>

                    </control>

                    <control type="label">

                        <include>Common_InfoDialog_Header</include>

                        <posy>32</posy>

                        <label>Description</label>

                    </control>

                    <control type="label">

                        <include>Common_InfoDialog_Label</include>

                        <height>300</height>

                        <label>$VAR[Info_Description]</label>

                    </control>

                </control>

                <!--Scrollbar-->

                <control type="scrollbar" id="80">

                    <posx>720</posx>

                    <posy>0</posy>

                    <width>5</width>

                    <height>530</height>

                    <texturesliderbackground>colors/color_white.png</texturesliderbackground>

                    <texturesliderbar>colors/color_grey.png</texturesliderbar>

                    <texturesliderbarfocus>colors/color_grey.png</texturesliderbarfocus>

                    <orientation>vertical</orientation>

                    <showonepage>false</showonepage>

                    <onleft>9001</onleft>

                    <onright>50</onright>

                    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="25" time="200" reversible="true" condition="!Control.HasFocus(80)">Conditional</animation>

                    <animation effect="fade" start="25" end="100" time="200" reversible="true" condition="Control.HasFocus(80)">Conditional</animation>

                </control>            

            </control>
