There are some very noticeable nice additions in there, going from the previous skin in a beta build (4.something) to v5, although im not entirely sure what is Gotham and what is Nox 5 tbh.
A couple of pointers/questions...
-
Is there any chance we can disable the search button on the home page? 1 up off the menu, meaning it requires 2 up's to get to the widget. I would have thought most XBMC users use a remote and ive always found search to be utterly useless unless you use a mouse (or mouse function on the remote) as you cant type using directional buttons cos its locked into the text entry box. Eitherway, it'd be nice if that could be disabled an you could get straight to the widgets. On a side note, im loving the fact that there are now far more entries in there.
Found a solution - see edit at the end of post
- Theres no skin/theme colour selection, only the default (light blue) and orange. Is it possible to get that implemented again, so we can pick from a handful of pre-determined colours? Would the 'Color Picker' addon do this, or is that something entirely different??
- A mate switched back to 4.something after trying 5.0.3 because the previous options for how the widgets were presented were missing (for me, you left in exactly what i'd be picking anyway
), is this something which is likely to return later down the road?
Certainly feels much nicer, and the things it 'lacks' are much smaller in significance to the improvements brought. It feels a little crisper, and IMO its always been head & shoulders above the none Aeon skins, and the best of the Aeons.
Thanks for continuing to improve Nox for us all.
edit - found a previously answered post for the search getting in the way of widget access.
If anyone isnt as lazy as i was, and wants to know how...
change skin to confluence, then disable other skins (esp Aeon ones)
addons > program addons > global search > disable.
re-enable the Aeon Nox skin
Done.
You cant have any enabled skin which is currently using the search within it, and disable it, you have to disable the skins then disable the search, then load up the skin again and its much better (IMO)
