script.skinshortcuts is supposed to start when I touch "Widget 1" or "Widget 2". When I touch either a condition is not being cleared so script.skinsortcuts isn't being called?

EDIT:

I have the widget menu item working on Android with mouse and on android with touch!

Let me set this up:
ALL installs are Kodi 17.1 Final
Android with mouse is a Ugoos UT2 box running a custom ROM so I could get it to Android V5.1 and Kodi 17.1
Android Touch is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10.5 SM-T800 on Android 6.01 Stock no root

Your link to the code got me to thinking and looking. I noticed between the present V6.06 and the previous git V6.06 there was an extra line of code that was NOT in the older git v6.06.


This line was added in the present git for Krypton:

<onfocus>ClearProperty(skinshortcuts-management-widget,Home)</onfocus>

So, I removed it and fired Kodi up and low and behold on the Samsung the touch worked for widget 1.
Now I go do the same thing to the Ugoos box, edit out that line of code, and the mouse still works on Widget 1 but it's also working on widget 2 which is not happening on the tablet. I suppose that line of code repeats somewhere for Widget 2, like item 801.

Now tell me how I just hosed up my whole install of Kodi on both devices cause I don't know what the heck I'm doing and why would I go in there an tinker around anyway.

Removing that line will make it hard to back out to the main menu customizer. At least it should do that

A couple question for ya. Using Krypton nightlies on win10.

When setting up a widget, would it be possible to remove the title of the widget? If I setup recommended episodes, I don't need the title to remind me what the widget is (or do I? Getting a bit old ). If I try and space away the title, the widget won't work. If library data provider is used, it seems the episodes are displayed ok. Skin helper service brings up a complete different set of episodes that never seem to change (hope this makes sense).

You mention quite often about using the latest from git. Is the correct way to use git just download the zip file every time you want to update? Doing a pull from source seems to make the skin incompatible.

Appreciate your work and any help you can give!

So, uh, while I was testing this out I noticed something else with the new graphics for moving the menu items (↑↓+X) in Windows I noticed when dragging the mouse around on them it's very likely two of them will turn white as if active. The ↑ and ↓ in particular.

I'll push a fix sometime tonight or tomorrow for the the spacing issue with the buttons

Just setup tvheadend and have some concerns:
I wanted to use the recent channels widget on my live-tv home menu item. The problem is that by focusing the widget, the background image disappears. Is there somewhere an option to force the menu item background to stay visible?

I recognized there is no button for the "pvrosdchannels" in pvr osd menu, which I like much better than the guide (which has a button). Would you mind to add it or do you think it gets too much buttons? :-)

In movie and tv show lists, you can switch back to fullscreen and control the player in the side menu. Don't you want this also to be in pvr menus like the guide? I think it would be nice to have it there, too.

In the TV guide, there is a placeholder for picons in the lower left corner. Unfortunately the picons are being shown way smaller than they could, so would be nice if we could scale them up or something like this.
When no EPG data is available for a channel, the picon disappears, too. Would be nicer if this doesn't happen.

Best regards

Now that its all up and running correctly the only issue I have is when I goto Skin Settings, Customizations, Video information. doesn't matter if I click use default or not only your version shows on screen when I click Information on any movie or TV show Episode. or using Widgets From Home Screen, However if I go into Extended info Program and find the movie or tv show and click Information it uses Its Dialog Screen which is the one I use because your Version still shows Actor Image instead of the Actual Photo of the Actor.

Nonetheless it still does the same for me if I delete than post new folder. Kodi 18 shows no problems whatsoever other than the extended Script add-on doesn't work. I like your version other than the fact that the Cast members show up as Default Actor icons instead of the actual actors photo. But after 29 Hours straight trying to do this everyway possible I am done and will stay with 6.0.5 til 6.0.6 is officially released.

You almost followed all the instructions exactly

Missed the bit about the README and which branch works for each Kodi version.

You are installing the Kodi 18 version of the skin so if you do not want that version install the correct one.

The reason I say to delete the folder is if you do not know what you are doing you will have a FrankenSkin that isn't going to work right.

The fanart being black when there is no Widget fanart is bug and should be fixed with latest Git.

I don't yet know how to make images, really should just hunker down and learn but not really enough time ATM, if you make one or someone else does I don't mind adding it.

I'll add the player controls in PVR sidemenus also

Going to need a pic about the Picons. I can't test much when it comes to PVR.

It is impossible to show the skin versions of xmls if they do not exist. You say you deleted them.

If you have done that they do not exist and therefore cannot be shown.

2. Why don't you just take the playlist buttons? There is no playlist in pvr osd and they match quite good I think.

3. Thank you :-)

4. here are two screenshots. On the first you see the picon on the right in the info window is nice big, the picon on the left in the background is a bit small, there is just too much black around it I think :-)
On the second screenshot I'm on a channel without EPG data at the moment, which also makes the picon disappear.

Finally I'm having one more feature request which I know from Titan skin (when I remember right):
The ability to setup which osd button is selected first when opening video, music and pvr osd.
So you just need to double tap the ok button to reach your most used function, e.g. the pvr on screen channel list ;-)

Best regards and thank you very much!
