You need a MOD that supports kiosk mode, or you delete the whole sideblade in MyVideoNav.xml

Thank you for your reply!
Could you please advise mod (preferably a small "light" one) which would allow such a hack?

Thanks. I have tried your mod and I really like it, however it seems to increase CPU/GPU usage as temps rose with more than 10 degrees in idle. Doesn't seem to take advantage of Dirty Region settings?

DirtyRegion is not skin specific!
Every skin takes advanteage of it.
TBH can't believe that the rising of the temperature by 10 degree is caused by the skin...
There is nothing that could lead to this behaviour from skin side...

I don't know what the cause is, but I experienced the same issue with the Tranparency skin.
No issues with Confluence and Confluence Vertical.
By the way the options your mod offers are awesome and should've been included with Confluence!

I just edited MyVideoNav.xml by changing
<include>SideBladeLeft</include>
to
<include></include>
This removed the complete side menu (from the video menu).
Please let me know if you find a way to hide the side menu with an option

Many thanks!
After I've added your changes to MyMusicNav.xml and SkinSettings.xml, I was able to select the Kiosk mode option in the Confluence settings.
This added line <setting name="skin.confluence.KioskMode" type="bool">true</setting> to guisettings.xml
After I put the original MyMusicNav.xml and SkinSettings.xml back in the 720p folder and restarted XBMC, the Sideblade was still hidden!
Does this mean Kiosk mode is built in Confluence?

nope, it's not implemented...
If you reverted your changes, there should be the side blade visible, again...
Or you made an error somwhere...

You're right.. Sideblade is back after reinstalling XBMC.
It turned out I forgot a </control>
It works now! Excellent!
