Seems I had everything enabled, it just wasn't on library view.

As you might of guessed, just starting using XBMC!

Anyone with any ideas on how to stop the wall cover art from being faded?

XBDD Wrote:Just donated a few hours ago, sorry I took so long, had to verify my account. Anyways, Screenshots look amazing. I was wondering when those Dialogs were going to be dealt with. But that's such a good idea. Do they slide in and out like the time panel?

Anyhow, like the fact that your trying to finish this Horizonz before you branch! Thats good. Gives you more time to concentrate on the look. Hey, hows it doing recruiting that guy from devianart to do Horizonz graphics? I adore his gallery. 34 Daily Deviations is crazy, but he's the best designer I've come across in an age. How far away does he stay from you?

Doraemonn Wrote:I really like the new dialog design. Looking forward to the new version. Any estimate as to when you might be ready to test it?

digitalhigh Wrote:CANCEL BUTTONS ON THE DIALOGUES! FINALLY!!

Whew...got that out of the way.

The dialogues are beautiful. I see that the letter view is the only one devoid of some kind of progress bar...what about having a bar there to reflect how far through the entire collection the person is?

Just a thought. Either way, I like the little attention to detail you're putting into everything. The subtle stuff is what everybody notices but can't quite put their finger on...

So what do you mean when you say "make it more graphic-oriented"?

pletopia Wrote:make sure you extracted Vol. 3 properly
into your skin dir .. put the horizon dir .. and that the horizon dir inside has a 720p etc

lot of times you get the horizon's dir (which has the 720p dir etc) inside another parent horizon's dir

dynamix Wrote:xb2iris, what a brilliant idea for those dialogs. Dynamically changing dialogs, cool! Also like the way you integrated the progress bar. Very clean and sexy.

Kingsley Wrote:Sorry if I'm being silly, but does anyone know how to change:

1) When in Wall view, the colouration of the thumbs. Id rather cover art wasn't greyed out.

2) The size of the zooms of the cover art when they are highlighted?

Thanks!

Kingsley Wrote:Another question, sorry guys!

How do you get the infomation to show like that?

six_storm Wrote:I just thought I would share what other forums on the net have been requesting of Horizonz. I have been a member of NVNews.net forums for almost 5 years and some of the members there are loving Horizonz. Here is what nekrosoft13 has to say:



Just thought I would post this to see what everyone says. xb2iris, clean your inbox out!!!!

dynamix Wrote:Kingsley, if you use the library mode the info will pop-up after a few seconds when selecting a movie/tv show.

Steps to take:

- in filemode set the content for the map which includes your movies/tvshows
- pick a scraper, for example imdb for movies and tvdb for tv shows
- scan for new content (info, cover and fanart are scraped)
- go into librarymode

Now select a movie and voila after a few seconds the info window will pop up!

pletopia Wrote:Kingsley .. you will also have to enable a couple settings

Settings -> Aeon -> Features
-enable Media Information Panel (applies to Wall View)
-enable Dynamic media information panel (applies to list and Poster View)

that should get it going for you

dynamix Wrote:Welcome in the lovely world of XBMC, Kingsley! Be aware: XBMC is addictive

I don't think there is an option to disable the fading. It's the way the view is at the moment. It could be that xb2iris will pick up your request when he is able to work on volume IV.

missy_xbmc Wrote:Hey guys. How's those donations coming? 54% seems to be the number of the day. Thats so much closer than when I donated at the beginning!

Anyways, C'mon PEOPLES, donate, I want Volume IV out as soon as possible. The screenshots are looking mighty promising, don't you think. Hes said he'll need a week or less to put this thing up after he gets a PC, so lets help him get one.

It's XMAS! Give the skinner dude a XMAS gift and I'm sure he'll give us all a SPLENDID Gift right back! WOW, those Dialogs look great!!!!! I'm excited enough to donate again, even though I'm a poor student without a holiday job! C'mon Y'ALL!!!!

nekrosoft13 Wrote:XBMC is quite popular in other places

number 3(font) and 4(watched/unwatched notification) are the most important

None of the Polish special characters show up (ę,ą,ł,ó,ś etc..)

BlackRose Wrote:I totally agree with missy_xbmc... us females are abusing you guys donationwise. We're the only ones of a few who have done something to help XB2IRIS! What I mean is, with over 15,000 downloads and all only coming from this site I believe, how can only a few have a few spare pounds laying around to donate. That doesn't make any sense!

Seems, that all most people do is tell XB2IRIS what they need or want in the skin, and when he puts it in there, all he gets is them downloading his skin, with no thank you and most definately, no donation. That is completely wrong in my opionion.

Well, as it is, ask for whatever you want, it won't be added coz if you haven't heard, Horizonz is not in production right now, due to its developer not having a pc to do it on. And with XB2IRIS close to securing one of the best Graphic Designers out there to do his graphics, this is the skin to watch. How unappreciative are people It's crazy!
