Can you move NextUp notifications to the top? I use subtitles and it would be very helpful!

Also the vertical menu looks good so far Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - deletedpenguin - 2015-07-03

Vertical menu looks great - though the background doesn't shine through enough. I realise you have to find a happy medium between transparency and readability, but my vote would be to let the images shine through a little bit more.

It works, you just have too many movies to display which are pushing the episodes off the side. Maybe you are looking more for something like this:

Code:
plugin://service.library.data.provider?type=recommendedepisodes+recommendedmovies+randommovies&reload=$INFO[Window.Property(recommendedepisodes)]$INFO[Window.Property(recommendedmovies)]$INFO[Window.Property(randommovies)]

I imagine this would annoy other people as top right is much more intrusively visible than bottom right... you might have to modify it yourself.

Yeah I know. The point is to match the fade between library and home so it seemlessly transitions - when it has more or less of a fade than the library then the transition looks odd.

How much fanart is faded can be controlled in the color schemes in skin.arctic.zephyr/colors/
edit the xml corresponding to the theme you use and change:
Code:
<color name="FanartFade">2Fffffff</color>

Change the "2F" part to a different hex value -- higher values show more fanart

Thanks it worked.

Ah, I figured there was a reason for it. Makes sense. Thanks!

Introducing the vertical home menu (on github). Still a few things to do (support for Next Aired, Weather, Favourites widgets and better looking music widgets) - but everything else works well.

Great work, well done Big Grin

OMG, so cool, this I was missing a long time, since I would like to have some more transparency. Smile

Thank you

Is there any way that you could add this setting to extras, so anyone can easyer control this?
Is there and option that you would add also possibilitie for selecting secondary highlight color to extras?

Stoked that you skinned the YouTube addon. Hope Phil develops it further because it's really cool.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - radicalonions - 2015-07-03

Can you add an indicator that there is a submenu on the vertical menu? New menu looks very good BTW.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - furii - 2015-07-03

out of curiosity how messed up is a:z on isengard? now that we're at rc1 i was considering giving it a try but don't want my favorite skin messed up Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Guilouz - 2015-07-03

How to launch this youtube browser ? I have the latest extendedinfo script and youtube browser script but my youtube is the same as before...

Definitely just trying to figure out the best way to do it.
