anybody know how to override add to menu ?
widgets add to home screen but are unusable
they get added as ActivateWindow(10000,plugin://plugin.video.crackle,return) is not clickable
if i go to settings and change to ActivateWindow(Videos,"plugin://plugin.video.crackle",return) it opens the addon
Hi All !
I have a question.. is there a way I can use 2 separate skin.shortcuts for 2 separate skins on the same Kodi ?
let me clarify...
For my Main HTPC ( windows based used as Primary media Server as well .. all my local Media is here ) as I require a more level of further customisation I use ANS as my main skin . I also like Bingie Skin ( Titan Bingie ) & I use this as my main skin on my Nvidia Sheild ....
I want to use these 2 Skins but with different skin shortcuts
Is this Possible Like maybe modifying & cloning the skin shortcuts to be used as separate incident in both skins ?

shaktoo , as far as I know, script.skinshortcuts allows for shortcuts not to be shared between skins, but the skin needs to specify this in the "overrides.xml" file in the shortcuts folder. There is a "<doNotShareMenu />" tag that can be placed in that file.

Bart

Dear Bart,
many thanks for the reply.
Ihave been trying to achieve this as I have these 2 skins with different needs but was having difficulty.So basically if I create thsi tag @doNotShareMenu /> @" and place it in Overrides.xml in the skin folder that should do it ? Right

@
shaktoo , yes, it should. In my main HTPC I have Amber (the skin I maintain) and other skins that use skinshortcuts, and when I switch between skins, I have different shortcuts for Amber than for others, and it works well.

Bart
Just One question : where is this overrides.xml as I cannot find it in Titan Bingie Skin.

@
shaktoo , in the skin's folder, there should be a "shortcuts" sub-folder. There you will find the "overrides.xml" file.

Bart

Thanks @
the_other_guy : will definiti=ely give this a try
I just installed a fresh compile of Kodi git and then script.skinshortcuts from the repo - version="1.1.0" provider-name="BigNoid, marcelveldt, SiLVO".
Anyone know how to fix this?

@
teriyaki this looks like a copy&paste error as the gui file tries to import itself. Can't test right know but I think the fix would be either:
change line 1951 of file .kodi/addons/script.skinshortcuts/resources/lib/gui.py from
to
Code:
from resources.lib import gui
or
comment out line 1951 by adding a # in front of the line and change the beginning of line 1952 from ui= gui.GUI( to ui=GUI( like so:
Code:
import gui
ui= gui.GUI( "script-skinshortcuts.xml", CWD, "default", group=launchGroup, defaultGroup=launchDefaultGroup, nolabels=self.nolabels, groupname=groupName )
to
Code:
# import gui
ui= GUI( "script-skinshortcuts.xml", CWD, "default", group=launchGroup, defaultGroup=launchDefaultGroup, nolabels=self.nolabels, groupname=groupName )

Thanks for the fast response @
AnonTester ! I applied your latter suggestion and it works fine now. Do you know which git repo would be the correct place to file a bug report for this? I think @
mikeSiLVO forked it to make it python3 compatible but I'm not sure if his repo is the one for the official Kodi repo now or what.

Is everything working? If yes, could you bump the xbmc.python version to 3.0.0 and create a PR for the Kodi Matrix repo and for a review?
Sounds great that we're at the stage to ask that question already!
One question I have regarding the need to use the Skin Helper script together with Skinshortcuts, @
mikeSiLVO: Would it be possible to incorporate this button fuctionality into the Skinshortcuts script for the future?
Code:
RunScript(script.skin.helper.service,action=setskinshortcutsproperty,header=$LOCALIZE[528],property=widgetName)
It should be a native functionality IMHO - any adjusted home menu or submenu entry can be renamed with a button and dialog, but the widget label renaming can currently only be done with the Skin Helper script.
OK, I've spent the last couple of hours going through the documenation, looking though the code, and looking at the XML files the script generates to try and figure out how I might add a custom widget to a skin (I"m using Arctic Zephyr 2, so I'm basically trying to mod the skin to add this widget as an option). I specifically would like to have the PVR status widget Estuary has that tells me what the next recording is and what is currently recording. I have the XML from Estuary to do it (probably needs some changes to adapt visually to AZ2), I just can't figure out how or where to add it so that it shows up in the widgets I can pick it as an option to show on the LiveTV section of the home screen. It feels like it should go into the templates.xml file, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Here's some of the code I'm trying to use as a widget (it does the currently recording part).
xml:
<control type="image">
<top>80</top>
<left>16</left>
<width>670</width>
<height>225</height>
<texture border="21">dialogs/dialog-bg.png</texture>

<font>font12</font>
<shadowcolor>black</shadowcolor>
</control>
BTW, it looks like AZ2 uses skin shortcuts to generate everything, so I can't just manually shove this somewhere without it getting overwritten.
Thanks.
