Kiosk Mode
#1
I really love Amber Skin.

It looks great and runs very smooth on my raspberry pi.

Is it possible to mod the skin so that Kiosk Mode becomes available?

I tired to do it myself but I am failing miserably since I don't have coding experience.

Hope that someone can help out.

Cheers,
David

Oh that would be absolutely amazing

I hope you will find the time to add it.

I am using your skin in a project inside the national park of Bali.
It is by far the best skin for what I am using it and getting Kiosk mode would make it perfect Big Grin

All the best from Bali

I don't think this feature ever made it in.
I managed to edit Settings.xml to add the toggle option. But I was having problems editing MyVideoNav.xml to include support. Any chance of this feature finally making it in? I have children who I do not want to change the settings.

Settings.xml
Code:
<item id="2" description="AutoScroll">
              <visible>Skin.HasSetting(AutoScroll)</visible>
              <label>$LOCALIZE[20189]</label>
              <label2>$LOCALIZE[107]</label2>
              <onclick>Skin.ToggleSetting(AutoScroll)</onclick>
            </item>
            <item id="2" description="AutoScroll">
              <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(AutoScroll)</visible>
              <label>$LOCALIZE[20189]</label>
              <label2>$LOCALIZE[106]</label2>
              <onclick>Skin.ToggleSetting(AutoScroll)</onclick>
            </item>

            <item id="777" description="Kiosk">
              <visible>Skin.HasSetting(KioskMode)</visible>
              <label>$LOCALIZE[31996]</label>
              <label2>$LOCALIZE[107]</label2>
              <onclick>Skin.ToggleSetting(KioskMode)</onclick>
            </item>
            <item id="777" description="Kiosk">
              <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(KioskMode)</visible>
              <label>$LOCALIZE[31996]</label>
              <label2>$LOCALIZE[106]</label2>
              <onclick>Skin.ToggleSetting(KioskMode)</onclick>
            </item>

            <item id="3" description="Lyrics">
              <label>$LOCALIZE[24020] $LOCALIZE[31132]</label>
              <label2>$INFO[Skin.String(LyricPath)]</label2>
              <onclick>Skin.SetAddon(LyricPath,xbmc.python.lyrics)</onclick>
            </item>

Figured out a work around for this problem.
It was really important for the installation that I am doing that nobody changes the view settings so what I ended up doing is to just delete the code of the side menu in the skin code and like this there is no way for other people to do changes on how the skin looks.

I edited the files MyPics.xml and MyVideoNav.xml
You need to remove the code of the section
<control type="group" description="Side menu 9000 group">

When you deleted it all out then there is no more side menu to access.
It's a bit an extreme measure but for my case it works just how I need it now :-)
