Hello all,

first of all, Thank you jurialmunkey for this beautiful Skin. Super Clean, yet, with all the info we need

I have a question, is it possible to make the Homescreen to also show the plot,rating etc? Instead of the full wall with posters?

thank you.

Wow, This skin best out of all the skins so far available.
I run this skin on my tv and phone
When i apply this for my phone unfortunately I have changed the view to list and go back to the previous one,I don’t know how to change the view in list mode of view in a phone.
Can any one please explain how to do it

Thanks for your work jurialmunkey, I switch to horizon since a long time on AZ

I loved to have some big fanart display with last movies. I try banner view for movie widget but I’ve a 4k TV and the banner is pixelated max resolution is only 1000x185 pixels.
Is there a possibility to have a custom landscape widget view. The current one is perfect for episode but for movie, title is redundant and I would like to have better view on fanart.

He's been pretty vocal in the past about not wanting to add a "large landscape" aspect, but I guess we'll see

I like the styling on this skin and tested it out as an alternative to the abandoned Estuary mod I'm using now.   I'm afraid I couldn't get it to stabilize.  Even after restarting Kodi, the busy spinners roll and roll and sometimes the widgets never load.  Sometimes they do.   If I click into an addon, the ocean busy spinner rolls and it never opens.  Then after the the initial time I was able to customize the home page, the "customise home page" button wouldn't open anything.  I clicked it, went away and did chores and came back and it had opened, so maybe sometimes it opens but takes a long time.  I tried installing it to a separate profile, but that didn't improve things markedly.

In skin shortcuts, I tried it with share menus switched off and on and didn't notice any difference.   What version of skin shortcuts does Arctic Horizon support, btw?

I'm on Windows 10, 9th gen i7, 16gb memory and Kodi 18.8  which is to say that I don't think my device is slow.

It's a Kodi issue - sometimes when Kodi is attempting to load multiple plugin paths it will get stuck in a loading loop. I'm not entirely certain about the cause but I think it's some bottle-neck related to some python module not loading properly -- I assume that Kodi only processes X number of plugin threads at a time and the rest wait in a queue. So if all the currently processing plugins are all waiting on a particular module to load (which isn't loading properly for whatever reason), then any new scripts/addons/plugins (e.g. skinshortcuts) will all just sit in that queue rather than run.

You could try disabling online lists in the info dialog and then restarting:
"Skin Settings > Lists and Other > Customise info dialog lists > Use online information"
(for some reason using lists from plugins in the info dialog cause issues for a lot of people)

RE: version of skinshortcuts. I use 1.0.19 but the one in the Kodi repo should be fine too. The issue isn't skinshortcuts - it's Kodi getting stuck in a loading loop that prevents skinshortcuts from running.

Ok, thanks.  I'll try disabling the lists.

0.5.0 - Widget Overhaul

Heads-up for every one - version 0.5.0 overhauls the widget system.

There are several benefits:

• Submenu is single row
  
• Info is no longer limited to single widget pages and can be set for any widget (set in widget customisation -- "Display Info")
  
• Fullscreen hub widget no longer requires using showcase hub replacement and can be set for any widget page.
  
• Fullscreen widget now allows multiple "normal" widgets stacked underneath rather than switched via submenu
  
• Settings widget navigation between rows now behaves properly

How do you get the 2nd picture?

I think I found a bit of a bug. I added a Fullscreen Widget above two normal widgets, decided I didn't like it & removed the Fullscreen Widget. Now I can't go down to the two remaining Widgets, pressing Down does nothing. If I add the Fullscreen Widget back in it lets me scroll down but without it I can't. It seems like there is a flag somewhere which isn't being removed when I delete the Fullscreen Widget.

Seems to be multiple widgets with "Display Info" enabled.

Thank you this piece of artwork, once again. I was sticking to AZ2 due to horizontal menu. Since it has been implemented in to this, now I gave a shot and liked it!

One small issue with the widget from NBA League Pass add-on. I am using "upcoming live games" as widget from this addon with square aspect. I would prefer landscape but somehow team logos only shown with square in both skins. However logos does not fit in horizon while it fits fine with AZ2. Any ideas?

Here is the screen shots:

AZ2

[drinfernoo]

Is there an option to now use that "submenu" widget aspect, or has replaced "icon"?

Hi @jurialmunkey,

After testing the 2nd picture format..

I think it needs more cleanup on the screen.

1. Perhaps a divider between poster and text?

2. Remove header text (I.e. TV Shows etc)

3. Perhaps a slightly different background colour for text/ clearart section

4. The lower widget is showing a cut off of the widget header

For 3., there are a couple different options for styling of the divider, which I feel like each give a very distinctive look.

For 4., that is by design, to "hint" that there are more widgets to scroll.
