Hi there, having a slight brain freeze. I am trying to create a list, whose height will change depending on whether a setting is applied or not. Code fragment below:
<control type="list" id="506">
<posx>300</posx>
<posy>544</posy>
<width>1000</width>
<height>176</height>
<viewtype label="ninjalist">list</viewtype>
...
...
Now, if for instance a condition such as "Skin.HasSetting(raiselist)" I want the height of the list to be a certain value, and if this condition "!Skin.HasSetting(raiselist)" is not met, I would like the height to be another value. Is there something like conditional height when I can do the following in a single list control.
<height condition="Skin.HasSetting(raiselist)">300</height>
<height condition="!Skin.HasSetting(raiselist)">176</height>
I have attempted to create two list controls with same id number, and different heights which is visible when these either of the two conditions are met, but one of them won't work.
Any idea what the solution to my dilemma may be guys?
only way atm is to use includes + reloadwindow(). we have the same "problem" with low list viewtype.

Change the ID of one of them so they're not the same.

Will this work? Does there not have to be a default control, and if not present, kabam!

Please elaborate super phil? I'm using your low list as a reference, but have changed the control to a list, due to cosmetic value (lol!).
inside the list:
Code:
<include condition="!Skin.HasSetting(nohighlist)">LowListHeightHigh</include>
<include condition="Skin.HasSetting(nohighlist)">LowListHeightLow</include>
Includes:
Code:
<include name="LowListHeightHigh">
<height>480</height>
<focusposition>3</focusposition>
</include>
<include name="LowListHeightLow">
<height>330</height>
<focusposition>1</focusposition>
</include>
settings button:
Code:
<control type="radiobutton" id="1630">
<description>Toggle Lower List</description>
<include>Objects_MediaMenuButtonAlt2</include>
<label>$LOCALIZE[31170]</label>
<onclick>Skin.ToggleSetting(nohighlist)</onclick>
<onclick>XBMC.ReloadSkin()</onclick>
<selected>Skin.HasSetting(nohighlist)</selected>
<visible>Window.IsActive(videolibrary) + stringcompare(Skin.String(actualViewtype),lowlist)</visible>
</control>
only other solution is, as Hitcher said, to make seperate viewtypes with different ids.

Now that is seriously sexy. Thanks so much Philinio! That is going to be a serious help. Now stop wasting your time on a fool like me and go sort Aeon Nox 4.0 out! haha

solutions with reloadskin() aren´t sexy
And they're frowned upon for official repo releases.

Haha, I reload my skin all the time... but yeah, why u nox fellows not try the Hitch-Meister's solution
could work...

Well, I frowned when I tried the multiple id solution last night... was excited... but it didn't work for some reason... do you think the different id's caused the list not to appear when one setting was chosen
.. i was clueless, thought it was because of the default control thingy... thought it would work... but yeah, any idea?

i know. that´s why i was begging for conditional height some time ago.
conditional focusedposition and navigation (hor/ver) would also be nice to have.
i know why i was binging a conditional weight
