@Johnny1982fd , thank you for your requests!  I will do my best to answer each:

1. Since I see you use the horizontal menu, whatever item you have as the third item in your menu will be the starting one. 
If you use the vertical menu:
  -- The fourth item will be the starting one
  -- The sixth if you use the static vertical menu. 
  -- You can choose to always start with the first item (Settings, Amber Settings, Home Layout, Start at First Item).

Please remember that you can change the order of your menu (Settings, AMber Settings, Home Layout, Customize Home Menu and Shelves)

2. The 3D flag exists in the skin; it shows if the media file is stereoscopic (I think this gets filled when the item is scraped).  

3.  The progress bars on system info should be of the same highlight color you have selected.  I will fix this.

4.  About the blue text not being very readable, the best solution would be to change the highlight color to a more readable one (Settings, Amber Settings, Color Options, Highlight Color).

5.  I will work on implementing an option to swap the list items and the info panel on the appropriate list views (List, Low List and Tall List). 

6.  About the icons list with info suggestion, have you tried the Panel view? I think it offers the functionality you are looking for.  You can make the posters smaller and you can use banners (for tv shows). The info is on the left, not the right.  I guess I could implement an option to swap like for the list views.  Please let me know if the Panel or Big Panel views satisfy your needs, or what do you think is missing from them (other than placement of items).  Thanks.

7.  The collection overlay is a good idea.  Now I need to find one that fits well with the skin.  I will look for one (@newbii , do you think you could make one? Thanks).

8.  The skin has 5 font options, and I am not planning to add more.  It is a PITA (sorry for the expression) to ensure all parts of the skin are readable and look good with each font. 
In terms of colors, please look in Settings, Amber Settings, Color Options.  You can change the color of, in my opinion, all the relevant parts of the skin, so that you can make it truly unique to you.  Please let me know if there are issues with the color customization, or if you think there are other skin elements of which you would also like to change the color.  Thanks.

Finally, thank you for thinking of donation! If you like, please donate to the XBMC Foundation (The Kodi team).  Without them, none of this would be possible.  Thanks.

Hey @bsoriano 

sorry for my late answer.

1.) It is OK for me and the current options. I guess, some users would appreciate it to fix another point at start.

2.) youre right

3.) THX - now it looks better

4.) No, cant agree with that. This can not be change! I try all options. In adition to that, in my populat netflix list are sometimes the same olor "bugs". Have a look at here:

https://imgur.com/a/UjWFqq4

5.) Thanks! I really appreciate it!

6.) Panel View looks good. But i really appreciate it if you implement a sawp option to switch left / right (i only like text on the right side ).

7.) You have implemented a Collection item (not final item as you said). But i´ll wait to your final version. What do you think ?

8.) It is OK for me , i like your blue


Glad to hear from you and best regards!

@Johnny1982fd , thanks for you reply.  

In terms of what option you start in, I think that because you can choose which menu item you have as the third, or fourth, or sixth, you can always have Amber start in your preferred menu item.  Did you customize your menu to have the option you want be the third one?

For the color issue you provided the screenshot for, which viw is that? Which Netflix list is that? My Popular on Netflix with icons view looks like this:



So I am not sure where that is coming from in your screenshot.

I will look into implemeting an alternate layout for the panel views as well.  I just finished that for the List, Low List and Tall List views, and it was a lot of work.  If you want to test that, you can download version 3.2.58 from GitHub.

I still have not heard back from the user who is helping me with the Collections indicator, so it still is not the final one.

Finally and most important, I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy through this crisis.

Bart

Hi @bsoriano 

you mean:

--> No, i guess you missunderstood that. If i start Kodi new with my Pi4 (LibreElec) you have ALWAYS the third item (i know that you can choose the menupoints to left/right)
I mean, you have NO Option to say "hey, if you kodi starts, go initial not to the third menu point rather to fifth point."


Yes, it is "popular list" at netflix. i have the same color bugs in LibreElec Settings (i have really no idea where this come from) - but it bothers me

Is version 3.2.58 in repo? Or is this a preview version?  

(2020-04-11, 21:46)Johnny1982fd Wrote: Hi @bsoriano 

thanks again for your fast reply - man i love you

"what I meant with the menu is that you can decide which item is the third one, so that when Kodi starts, the menu will be positioned in the option you want."

-->
But why is it always the THIRD POINT after kodi start? (independently which menupoint is on thrid position)
My suggestion is not to change menu points (up/down as you already implemented), much more an option to say kodi after start "Dont start at menu point three (from left) rather menu point five (from left side)


"So, if you go up from "Disable" and click/press on the up arrow, you can move the TV Shows option up, so that it is the second option, for example.  So you can move any menu item up or down, until you have them in the order that you like.

This is what I meant with you can decide which menu item is the third one."

-->
Agree with that. And i used it to customize my home menu. All is good.




Have a look at here:

https://imgur.com/a/pyBHQ5a

I reset to standard color (reset).
LibreElec settings again blue, but popular list in netflix now shows rigt colors (i take the same examples like in my previous post, The Crown, Suits)


And ... push the new version in repo - ill test this.
What are the changes

Keep healthy and thanks again!

@Johnny1982fd , thanks for you feedback.  I understand better your suggestion.  The third position has to do with how the menu moves.  I need to see if it is possible (for me) to make this configurable without losing any other functionality.  I will keep this in mind, but it is not something I will be working on very soon.

I have not skinned the LibreELEC settings dialog (I have no way of testing it), so that is why it looks different than the rest of the skin.  I will add this to my To-Do.

Bart

First of, I hope that you and your families are safe and healthy in this crisis.

I have pushed versions 3.2.58 (Leia) and 3.3.58 (Master) to GitHub only.

This is a big change (for me), with important additions to the List, Low List and Tall List views:

1. I have added the option to disable the info panel on a per view, per media type basis.  What this means is that you can disable the info panel for List view for Movies, but leave it enabled for TV Shows, or that you can have it disabled for List view for movies, but leave it enabled for Low List and for Tall List.  You will find the option now in the side blade (press Left in any media view).

2. I have added a new option to swap the info panel and the list items, also on a per view, per media type basis.  This means that the list items will now be in the center, and the info panel will be on the right.  The option appears in the side blade as "Alternate List Layout".  Like the disable panel option, you can enable the alternate layout for movies, but keep the original layout for music, and you can enable it for tv shows for List view, but not enable it for tv shows for Low List view.

3.  There are global settings for these two options in Settings, Amber Settings, Media Views: Disable Info Panel in List Views and Alternate List Views Layout.  if you enable these settings globally, then they will be enabled for all three views, for all media types.  Likewise, if you disable them globally, they will be disabled for all three views, for all media types.  You can, however, disable them globally and enable them individually per view and media type, and enable them globally and disable them individually per view and media type.

Did you make these changes for Big List as i am not seeing this in .59 and always use Big List?

@Kyselak, what version of the skin are you using? The statistics line should appear on the shelf (widget) when the shelf is not focused. Could you please send me a screenshot where I can see how you configured it and one where it shows the shelf without the statistics line? Thanks.
