Hi,
I've just started to learn XBMC scripting and everything has been going smooth, so far.
But now I have encountered a problem I just can't seem to solve.

From the XML-file:

PHP Code:

<control type="button" id="3">
<posx>180</posx>
<posy>200</posy>
<width>180</width>
<texturefocus>Subtitles.png</texturefocus>
<texturenofocus>mynormaltexture.png</texturenofocus>
<label>Button1</label>
<onfocus>-</onfocus>
</control> 


And from the python script:

PHP Code:

ACTION_SELECT_ITEM = 7

def onAction(self, action):
if(action == ACTION_PREVIOUS_MENU or action == ACTION_PARENT_DIR):
     self.close()
if(action == ACTION_SELECT_ITEM):
     self.SetFocusId(3) 


Why doesn't the button get focus? Maybe I have misunderstood something, but shouldn't the button show my chosen image when I hit <Enter>?

If you want to use your button on <enter> you need to use the onControl
method instead of onAction.

It will look something like that in your case.

Code:

def onControl(self, control):
       if control == self.yourbutton:
           self.showImage()

Where control is the button being hit.

setFocus method is used for highlighting buttons and not clicking/hitting them.
