I'm using Maximinimalism as a base for a dashboard that I'm creating (screenshot below). The last piece I'm trying to figure out is how you enable a multiimage/random background across a skin or for individual menu items (for example the screenshot is a customization of MyWeather.xml/"Weather" page of the skin).

Ideally I would like to be able to have the background of MyWeather.xml pull at random from an images folder. I can't find anything in the documentation and my searches have brought me to articles and videos telling you to go into Skin Settings-->Background Options (this skin doesn't have that) rather than how to do it in the XML itself.

Any help would be great. Thanks!

For this interested ...

Code:
        <control type="multiimage">

            <posx>0</posx>

            <posy>0</posy>

            <include>dimensionsFullscreen</include>

            <imagepath>special://skin/extras/backgrounds/</imagepath>

            <timeperimage>120000</timeperimage>

            <fadetime>1000</fadetime>

            <pauseatend>10000</pauseatend>

            <randomize>true</randomize>

            <aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>

            <colordiffuse>ffffffff</colordiffuse>

        </control>

Hi,

Love this view so much but I'm having trouble with the library.

When I select the icon I want all the add-ons to be there instead of clicking add-ons. Is that possible at all. I know it's lazy but I just want to click and go
