I am trying to make a spincontrol with that will move through some screen options. I am unclear at where it pulls the options available from though. After looking over some xml's that use something similiar (such as weather.xml for location) I noticed they all have buttoncommonvalue in them. I am not sure how this controls it, or even if it does.
Could someone help with how to set what the selections are available. I am just not sure where it is pulling from. Thanks for the help!

I figured that was what it was for, but thought I would check. So basically there is no featue on the skin level for a range of options. It has to be a single selection...ie. on or off.
This might be a better question for DJH since it is his skin, but I figure you have a good idea as well. How is Aeon able to have a dialog screen for views, and then a selection? It isn't controlled off of what would appear to be a button with built in values, but rather an image. Would this be possible with PM3.HD? I was thinking of a dialog box with actual screen shots and then make your selection from there. Mediastream does something similiar as well with a list of views and then a screen shot associated with each list item.

Yeah you set on right on left commands so on but i am having a problem with these is there a way to have one button always focused when entering that window id for instance i have a new home screen it has 5 blocks you can use the direction buttons to go through the menus without hitting enter but when returning back to the home screen the last button focused is highlighted so i have to press a direction to reset it is there an option to set the center button as default when entering the home screen (defaultcontrol only works if the skin is reset this is useless :|)
