I am learning skinning by modding djtolls AWSOME skin Joggler

Joggler has a context menu that comes up for each thumb nail in the music view so based on that I have a button next to the context button that when pressed brings up a yes no dialog.
I would like to pass the Artist, Song and Thumb to this dialog is this possible?
I can pass the $INFO[ListItem.Label] in the context dialog but that doesn't work for the custom dialog.

file view

Code:
<control type="group">

                <posx>11</posx>

                <!-- start context Buttons -->

                <control type="button">  <!-- 1context -->

                    <posx>100</posx>

                    <posy>60</posy>

                    <width>64</width>

                    <onclick>ContextMenu</onclick>

Any suggestions?
Thanks you Smile

You could try to specify the container.

Code:
Container(id).ListItem(offset).Label

But you probably need to transfer the label to a skin string before opening your custom window (2x onclick in 1 button):

Code:
<onclick>skin.setstring(MyString,Container(id).ListItem.Label)</onclick>

<onclick>ActivateWindow(1234)</onclick>

And use that string in your label

Code:
<label>$INFO[Skin.String(MyString)]</label>

Thanks a bunch MassIV

In the end I used

Code:
<onclick>skin.setstring(MyString_Song,$INFO[ListItem.Label])</onclick>

<onclick>skin.setstring(MyString_Path,$INFO[ListItem.FileNameAndPath])</onclick>

<onclick>skin.setstring(MyString_Image,$INFO[ListItem.Thumb])</onclick>

<onclick>ActivateWindow(1234)</onclick>

And

Code:
<onclick>PlayMedia("$INFO[Skin.String(MyString_Path)]")</onclick>

Code:
<label>Play $INFO[Skin.String(MyString_Song)]</label>

Code:
<texture>$INFO[Skin.String(MyString_Image)]</texture>

Thanks again Smile
