Just so I am clear, what you are looking for is for the plot to be more readable (like, from a distance) when the dialog is shown? Please let me know.First I was think this, but I was imagine plot view like in Aura Skin. In Aura Skin plot view is show in all screen, and this way large letter be good. But showing plot in a box I think letters is good in current size. What I think is better is just dim or blur the background when show and remove white background when plot is not being clicked (we can know that is clickable because we can select it). Sorry my misunderstand. Quote:To add the Next Episodes shelf, when configuring a widget, go to Additional Widgets, Skin Helper Service Widgets, Episodes, Next Episodes.Worked! Thanks! RE: Amber for Leia with Skinshortcuts - timmins - 2019-06-10 I'm having problem with TV programs not playing. I have two rows setup, the top has new program esp and the bottom row has my in progress tv program. The top row plays okay and the bottom row open the file location instead. The movies is setup the same but both rows play okay. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong.

I removed the grey background from the plot. Also, I improved the navigation and appearance of the vertical menu based on your suggestions. Please disable "Static vertical menu", enable "use bigger font", and enable the new option "use wraparound navigation for vertical menu", and let me know if this is what you were looking for. Thanks. I am still looking at the other suggestions. Regards, Bart RE: Amber for Leia with Skinshortcuts - bsoriano - 2019-06-10 (2019-06-10, 16:39)edjalmo Wrote:@edjalmo , thanks for the clarification.

Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong. @timmins , could you please let me know which widget did you select for your bottom row (Default widgets? Additional widgets? which one exactly?) Thanks. That way I will see if I can duplicate the issue and find a fix for it.

But I think you have to dim a little more, because it's kind of imperceptible. Another thing, we can see the dim expanding, I kinda don't like this (see like Estuary do. I think is more fancy).

The new wrap around menu looks GREAT !!! Removing the grey plot background also looks MUCH better. The main menu is pretty much perfect now I think apart from the delay/lag from the on deck widget. Any progress on that or the episode thumbnail thing ? Keep up the good work, I appreciate it !!!

Please let me know if this what you were looking for. Also, I added the episode thumb and tv show banner instead of the tv show poster in the video info dialog for episodes. I also started working on the ratings. it is not finished and does not look polished yet, but you can see my idea for it. let me know what you think.

Thanks. @treboR2Robert , I still have not looked at the lag issue (probably will take me longer). Please take a look at the latest from Git, I added the episode thumbnail and tv show banner to the video info dialog for episodes, and I started working on the ratings. It is still a work in progress, but you can see where I am heading with that. You need to have the different rating types scraped, since I am displaying what is in the Kodi database, not anything from an addon like skin helper service. I want to keep the skin as light as possible. Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

RE: Amber for Leia with Skinshortcuts - MKornby - 2019-06-11 I am very happy that you have revived Amber. And I like the shinshortcut version a lot. I am using the vertical menu and it is great that I can customize the top menu as I please. Up to Jarvis I had modified Amber to show only the menu items that I wanted, and now it can all be done without a hack. Wonderful! I have a request. I use the List view. It shows 9 items on the screen and there is a lot of space between the lines. Is it possible to show more items, perhaps 12 or more, by reducing the line spacing and/or reducing the font size? I made this change on my hacked Amber and it was easier to get an overview of the available media when you can see more items at the same time.

I will look into showing more items on List View. Regards, Bart |
