Hello All

Would like to Code a option to set a "Custom Favorit" as Widget.

first i tought i can achieve this easiely with blablub.path

PHP Code:
<content target="$VAR[WidgetTarget]">$INFO[Skin.String(CustomFavouriteMainmenu1WidgetRight.Path)]</content

but "$INFO[Skin.String(CustomFavouriteMainmenu1WidgetRight.Path)]" returns: "ActivateWindow(10025,"special://skin/playlists/... "

is there a Way i could only get the "real" path (without the " ActivateWindow(10025," ")?

Anyone a Idea for a "Workaround"?

Regards.
Nope, you would need a script to walk your nodes or addon directory trees to select the content paths.
What you can do is to use skin.shortcuts to create some custom menus and to use them as custom widget container.
O.K.

Did thuth i ask here, to be shure i didnt overlooked something before i ask in the related tread.

Regards.
I'm also looking for something like this. I tried it on my own a few weeks ago, but I only have some basic Python skills. Maybe one of our scripting maniacs is interested in creating such a tool...someday.. hopefully.
did ask for a new infolabel in the "script.favourits"-Tread.

maby the request gets a go. (hopefully)
