XBMC Stargate Animated Home Screen

Thanks, I positioned it well down in the Home xml and the defaults became visible again for all the various 'on clicks' Just have to create the visible condition for, say, videos (could be any of the menu items). This is where my ability comes to a grinding halt Smile

Oh, and Ned, You are a very sick man Smile

Container(id).HasFocus(item_number)

Container id is the id number of the control that you switch through home screen items. item_number should be self explanatory. If that item number is focused then the condition is true.

Put the four controls in a group and add a visible condition like this:

Code:

<control type="group" id="17">

<visible>Container(69).HasFocus(3)</visible>

        <control type="image">

            <posx>280</posx>

            <posy>0</posy>

            <width>720</width>

            <height>720</height>

            <texture>white.png</texture>

            <colordiffuse>ff000055</colordiffuse>

        </control>

        <control type="image">

            <posx>280</posx>

            <posy>0</posy>

            <width>720</width>

            <height>720</height>

            <texture>GateEventHorizon.png</texture>

            <animation effect="rotate" start="0" end="360" center="640,360" time="60000" loop="true" condition="true">conditional</animation>

            <animation effect="fade" end="80" time="0" condition="true">conditional</animation>

            <animation effect="zoom" start="100" end="110" center="640,360" time="30000" pulse="true" condition="true">conditional</animation>

        </control>

        <control type="image">

            <posx>280</posx>

            <posy>0</posy>

            <width>720</width>

            <height>720</height>

            <texture flipy="true">GateEventHorizon.png</texture>

            <animation effect="rotate" start="360" end="0" center="640,360" time="55000" loop="true" condition="true">conditional</animation>

            <animation effect="fade" end="80" time="0" condition="true">conditional</animation>

        </control>

        <control type="image">

            <posx>0</posx>

            <posy>0</posy>

            <width>1280</width>

            <height>720</height>

            <texture>gate.png</texture>

        </control>

</control>

Brilliant

thanks for such prompt replies. you can deal with Ned if you like Smile

wannabegt4 · 2013-03-14 06:27

No problem. Ned is a smart guy; he could probably throw that all together in the time it takes me to search the wiki to figure out how to do it all correctly.

pan2 · 2013-03-14 16:20

Well thanks anyway, I think I see now how it works now so thanks again. You did say in an earlier post that you were working on a follow-up wormhole idea. Has that progressed at all?

That is damn neat and very geek-worthy Smile

Excellent work

All I did with the wormhole idea was a window close zoom animation with a white flash at the end signalling passing the event horizon. I got burnt out on it all before I could get the wormhole to look right and just haven't felt the urge to pick it back up again.

Either from :02 through :06 or :11 through the end are the only parts of the wormhole transition that I think would be relatively easy to accomplish (all the other effects seem to complex):

That's fine, maybe some other really clever guy will try it Smile

ooooh Neeeed! Smile
