Hi,

if I stop browsing through my video library everything around the movie which is selected is getting a bit darker after a few seconds.

I was wondering if I can set this contrast as default somewhere?

What view are you using?

I'm using the panel view

The code for that is in ViewsPanel.xml. At the top of the file is the include "Panel_Dimmer". You can change the fade animation end number and that will alter it. I also noticed in that include there is a visible setting to change the time before the fade appears, but there is not a setting in the Top Menu to do so. I'll fix that as well.

I should know this already but don't and can't find an answer.
I am wanting to add some more home screen menu selections:
If all the available ones are used up in: Settings: Skin Settings: Main Menu: Customize Main Menu: ..................
Can new ones be created?
or
Is this a limitation of the skin?

Thank you

Not sure if I understand you right. What do you mean by top menu? Can I change the time before the fade appears yet or do I have to wait for your fix?
Because I edited the values of start and end but this didnt bring the effect that I was looking for

How were you able to change the media icons?
Did you do this manually? Thanks in advance.

I'm not aware of any way to increase the amount of main menu items besides altering the code.

@Kupo91
There is a missing button in the Top Menu that I will have to add to the next update to control the timer for that image. It's set by default to 3 seconds. What effect are you trying to achieve?

I want the selected movie always to be brighter than the rest:

I think thats what you meant by default 3 seconds.
So I will be able to set this timer to 0 seconds after next update?

Hi @latts9923 
Please see picture:

Would it be possible to make the statue/s smaller & move it to the top middle as my arrows suggests?
If not for everybody, can you maybe tell me where I can change the code to get the desired result.
Just my personal preference.
Thanks

I added the new Top Menu button and also added a no delay option for the Panel view. To get this working before the next update, open the file ViewsPanel.xml and change
xml:

<include name="Panel_Dimmer">
<left>0</left>
<top>0</top>
<texture>darkgrey.png</texture>
<colordiffuse>$INFO[Skin.String(colortexture)]</colordiffuse>
<animation effect="fade" start="100" end="45" condition="true">Conditional</animation>
<include>Animation_Fade</include>
<visible>[String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),1) + System.IdleTime(1) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),2) + System.IdleTime(2) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),3) + System.IdleTime(3) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),4) + System.IdleTime(4) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),5) + System.IdleTime(5)] + Control.HasFocus(62)</visible>
</include>
to
xml:

<include name="Panel_Dimmer">
<left>0</left>
<top>0</top>
<texture>darkgrey.png</texture>
<colordiffuse>$INFO[Skin.String(colortexture)]</colordiffuse>
<animation effect="fade" start="100" end="45" condition="true">Conditional</animation>
<include>Animation_Fade</include>
<visible>[String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),0) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),1) + System.IdleTime(1) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),2) + System.IdleTime(2) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),3) + System.IdleTime(3) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),4) + System.IdleTime(4) | String.Contains(skin.string(panel_seconds),5) + System.IdleTime(5)] + Control.HasFocus(62)</visible>
</include>

Next, open IncludesTopMenu.xml and find
xml:

<control type="radiobutton" id="9290">
<include>TopMenuRadioButton</include>
<label>31486</label>
<onclick>Skin.ToggleSetting(nopanelvideocase)</onclick>
<selected>!Skin.HasSetting(nopanelvideocase)</selected>
<visible>Control.IsVisible(62) + !Skin.HasSetting(noviewpanelposter) + [Container.Content(movies) | Container.Content(tvshows)]</visible>
</control>
and add this above it
xml:

<control type="button" id="80135">
<include>TopMenuButton</include>
<label>$LOCALIZE[31621]:</label>
<label2>$VAR[panel_seconds]</label2>
<onclick condition="String.IsEqual(skin.string(panel_seconds),0)">Skin.SetString(panel_seconds,1)</onclick>
<onclick condition="String.IsEqual(skin.string(panel_seconds),1)">Skin.SetString(panel_seconds,2)</onclick>
<onclick condition="String.IsEqual(skin.string(panel_seconds),2)">Skin.SetString(panel_seconds,3)</onclick>
<onclick condition="String.IsEqual(skin.string(panel_seconds),3)">Skin.SetString(panel_seconds,4)</onclick>
<onclick condition="String.IsEqual(skin.string(panel_seconds),4)">Skin.SetString(panel_seconds,5)</onclick>
<onclick condition="String.IsEqual(skin.string(panel_seconds),5)">Skin.SetString(panel_seconds,0)</onclick>
</control>

Next, open IncludesVariables.xml and add this variable to the top.
xml:

<variable name="panel_seconds">
<value condition="Skin.String(panel_seconds,0)">$LOCALIZE[32201]</value>
<value condition="Skin.String(panel_seconds,1)">$LOCALIZE[31465]</value>
<value condition="Skin.String(panel_seconds,2)">$LOCALIZE[31466]</value>
<value condition="Skin.String(panel_seconds,3)">$LOCALIZE[31467]</value>
<value condition="Skin.String(panel_seconds,4)">$LOCALIZE[31468]</value>
<value condition="Skin.String(panel_seconds,5)">$LOCALIZE[31469]</value>
</variable>

Finally, open the strings.po language file and add this to the end.
xml:

msgctxt "#32201"
msgid "NO DELAY"
msgstr "NO DELAY"

Open ViewsRightList.xml and find "<!-- Awards -->". Below that is all the code for the Oscar images.

I used kodi texture tool to customize my icons. You can get it here:

There are tutorials on how to use it. It's pretty easy.

If you have no idea what i am talking about you have try to get into the basics of skinning .xml -> Skinning_Manual (wiki) 
Hey @"chrissix"  figured it out for movie extended info but I can't figure out for tv extended info. I copied the codes and placed them here:

and I still get no results. For example:

If you can help me that would be great. No hurry. Have a happy new years  Smile
