well as i said i could enable it for whenever recently added isn't showing or maybe move it to the centre of the screen, i'll have a quick play around and see what it looks like.

Edit: here's a quick alteration to enable to clock with the menu at the bottom of the screen - i'm not 100% happy with it but i've got to go out so i'll have another look at it later http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5YVJFGX0

Hi! where in your homemenu2.xml can i find the posy property for the menu labels. I'd like to lower the labels from the menu so they fit perfectly into the menuselect image.
thnx

Thanks! I've been fiddling around with your mod to make it look like my mockup Wink I'll find out how you adjusted it Wink been looking at your code this entire night and I couldn't figure it out :p
the first skinning steps are the hardest I guess Wink

ps: if you could tell me what it is you adjusted it could save me some time Smile

removed the posy value from the image control under focusedlayout within the homeMenusLayout2 and homeSubMenusLayout include - look around line 950. have you got a good text editor for working in?

I use dreamweaver, still have it from the days when i was making websites Smile

Is there a way to instantly see the changes you make without having to reload the skin? (for code that is called for in the home.xml file you don't have to reload the skin but for code in the homemenu2.xml you do need to reload the skin in the settings - i hope my point is coming across here Wink)

if you put <F5>XBMC.ReloadSkin()</F5> in your keymap you can just reload the skin by pressing F5

i'll fix the accessories button tomorrow, again it's due to me not having used it myself and forgotten about it, i'll also improve the clock and any other bugs i can find (i'll actually test it with all the options in skin settings lol)

No rush mate also the length of the word accesories is a bit long for the highlite, would it be a big job to change that to say extras? just a thoughtWink

I'm really liking this mod and it made me go back to reFocus but there is a problem with movies and television shows displaying the title twice

the mod won't work with the current version of reFocus and is quite buggy, I was going to further develop it but Jeroen is planning on a horizontal menu so for now I'm leaving it. I may come back to it at some point though if I get some free time.
