Here's a quick mod to enable mouse support in Stark
#1
As with my other mods, I'm far from an expert on skinning so this should be considered a dirty hack. It works though. Smile

Enabling the mouse is as simple as saving the following as Pointer.xml and dropping it in the 720p folder:
Code:
<!-- taken directly from pm3.hd -->
<window id="105">
    <defaultcontrol>1</defaultcontrol>
    <coordinates>
        <system>1</system>
        <posx>0</posx>
        <posy>0</posy>
    </coordinates>
    <controls>
        <control type="image" id="1">
            <description>Pointer Image</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <width>32</width>
            <height>32</height>
            <texture>pointer-nofocus.png</texture>
        </control>
        <control type="image" id="2">
            <description>Pointer Focus Image</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <width>32</width>
            <height>32</height>
            <texture>pointer-focus.png</texture>
        </control>
        <control type="image" id="3">
            <description>Pointer Drag Image</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <width>32</width>
            <height>32</height>
            <texture>pointer-focus-drag.png</texture>
        </control>
        <control type="image" id="4">
            <description>Pointer Click Image</description>
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <width>32</width>
            <height>32</height>
            <texture>pointer-focus-click.png</texture>
        </control>
    </controls>
</window>

And then saving these four images to the media folder:

OR download and unzip this to your Aeon Stark directory: http://upload.markism.net/files/MousePointer.zip


You also need to make sure mouse support is turned on in XBMC. Settings > Appearance > Look & Feel > Enable Mouse (at the very bottom)


The only area that I've found so far that the mouse doesn't control is the OSD when playing back movies. When you click on the menu buttons, nothing happens. I'm sure getting it to work would require some major changes to VideoOSD.xml and I don't know enough to jump into those. It doesn't really bother me though because the bluetooth mouse I use with my HTPC already has play/stop/ffd/rwd buttons on it.
