[HOW-TO] [PRE-EDEN] Restoring Shutdown Menu Icons and some other home screen tweaks - claimui - 2011-11-11 Most (all?) of these changes are easily available in mad-max's Horizontal Confluence Modded, but I like to do things manually so I can tweak the skin piece by piece. Here is a guide for anybody who also wants to make these changes on their own. I hope some or all of these changes will be incorporated into the final skin. Reminder: If you make the changes to the skin.confluence folder in your XBMC folder, you will lose the changes when installing a new XBMC nightly! It is recommended to first copy skin.confluence to your addons folder, give it a new name, and make the changes there. Restore shutdown menu icons Basically you just need to reverse the changes that were made here: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/a339fc658d6a4f5f1bf20ebd402332cd97e25d85 Find DialogButtonMenu.xml in your skin.confluence/720p folder, and replace it with the one from Dharma: https://raw.github.com/xbmc/xbmc/bfb1eea8b6c5456563362776df940f9b10c01724/addons/skin.confluence/720p/DialogButtonMenu.xml Then download each of the shutdown icons from https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/a339fc658d6a4f5f1bf20ebd402332cd97e25d85#diff-2 and place them in your skin.confluence/media folder. Remove XBMC Logo The XBMC logo is in Home.xml under skin.confluence/720p, in the control beginning on line 34 (search for "LOGO", and it starts above there). To remove it, change line 42 to "<visible>false</visible>". (You can also just delete the control. But I prefer to change the visible tag so you can easily change it back.) Lower the menu bar The menu bar is in Home.xml under skin.confluence/720p, in the control beginning on line 438 (search for "HomeSubMenuCommonValues", and it starts above there). To lower the menu bar, change the <posy> value on line 439. I use "<posy>550</posy>" Remove the dark background when music is playing The background is in Home.xml under skin.confluence/720p, in the control beginning on line 46 (search for HomeNowPlayingBack, and it starts above there). To remove it, change line 53 to "<visible>false</visible>". Remove the home screen controls when media is playing The media controls are in Home.xml under skin.confluence/720p, in the control beginning on line 285 (search for "Controls for currently playing media", and it starts above there). To remove it, change line 289 to "<visible>false</visible>".
