hi Kodi team

using Kodi 15.2 Confluence

while Kodi is playing
it would be very practical if i could see the synopsis of a movie
by clicking on the thumbnail on the left

thanks for your great application !

program a remote button to be your <info> key.

I don't know what thumbnail you are referring to. I have no thumbnails when I am playing back movies.

when a movie is playing
and you click with the mouse
you can see the navigating buttons
and on the left there is a thumbnail of the movie

i do not have a button to call the <info>

i searched the kodi wiki and found some info about keymap
http://kodi.wiki/view/Keymaps#Functions

i will find out if it could be a lead
programming or reconfiguring keymaps is not evident
and definitely not for regular users

hope the programmers would implement this as a default feature

thanks for the advice

I have no clues about using a mouse with kodi but I know the osd screen you refer to. Easiest thing for you is to press I on your keyboard. Or map a remote key as per the wiki page you pointed to.
