Really loving this skin, I have taken some time to get it set up with the popup submenu's. And this 
skin has be using Kodi again on my Shield because its just so good looking. Fantastic work man, thanks for the 
time you have put into it.  @jurialmunkey

Thanks

Just a note on the PopUp submenus - if you have an info button on your remote, you can also access the popup menu by pressing info.

Jurialmunkey, thank you for your work on this excellent skin. I am new to this forum but have been around for a long time.. A little off topic but I have to ask... Your thought process and writing style remind me a lot of a guy I used to follow on the old WDTV forum. Were you ever involved with the showcase mod?

Thanks!

Nope, never even been on the WDTV forum before.

@piscdi - As FXB78 points out, most of these issues have been fixed as of v0.1.84 - Current version on github is v0.1.91

I've added season number to the info line for Seasons section.

You've always been able to add a Recordings widget.
Skin Settings > Home Customisation > Widgets > Choose Widget > Default Widgets > PVR > Active Recordings

Everything else was already fixed.

Thank you, jurialmunkey. I downloaded v0.1.91 (and the helper update) last night; fantastic work as always. Everything looks great (love the season numbering), but I still have the "Recent Recording" issue; maybe its just me. I tried every conceivable way to parse the info in 'Active Recordings', but it still doesn't show me what I'm looking for (I had tried that widget before, BTW). Here are some screen shots that hopefully depict what I'm trying to illustrate. Sorry I can't point you to the exact script in Estuary; my complete lack of coding potential (and interest) manifested itself long ago in the Cobol and Fortran era. I've come to accept, if not embrace that personal limitation over the years  . But I stand in awe of those of you who do possess (and contribute) those skillsets. 

Recording folders in both Estuary and Arctic Horizon show the exact same files:

Estuary  



And AH



But the widgets return very different results. Estuary, which mirrors the 'Recordings Folder":



And AH, which does not, regardless of the search criteria used in the widget (which is sorted by 'dateadded', 'descending' and limited to ten for this screen shot). As I stated earlier, I tried every conceivable combination last night, some of which produced some pretty crazy results. 



This is not a deal breaker; I love the skin and will contribute shortly. Its just vexing, that's all. And its probably just me anyway, LOL. Many thanks, as always.

It's the right path, you just need the "date" sort method (I'm not sure why recordings has its own special sort method and doesn't just use dateadded like everything else!). I've added the date sort method in latest version (0.1.94).

To get the same listing as Estuary choose:
Widget: Active Recordings
Sort Method: Date (it's at the very bottom of the options - not dateadded)
Sort Direction: Descending

How does this work with stuff like the showcase? Does it make widgets smaller? I haven't gotten a chance to play with it yet

Everything behaves normally and the spacing is the same. The only difference is that if a main menu item has more that 2 widgets, the extra widgets "peek" over the borders of the screen as shown in the screenshot.

It's not possible to make it a "long press" action, is it? My main device is a Shield, so I only have one "action" button.

[chrisvilla]

Not sure this has been mentioned, couldn't find it if it has.

I have a submenu setup with the submenu hub. The submenu has 6 items in it. When I look in the settings and via pressing the info button on the home page, all 6 items are there.

However, when I open the submenu hub, the middle 2 are missing.

Is there are limitation causing this or is this a bug?

[FXB78]

Some menus seem to have lost the ability to loop-back/wrap-around, for example on the Power menu I used to be able to press UP to move to the bottom of the list. The new Submenus on the Home Screen (press i) also don't have this functionality. I'm pretty sure it was working until very recently as I tend to use this quite a lot

Could there be something done with icon view so that also icon from other directories than the skin directory are accepted? Icons in submenus used as widget only shows from skin directory, and therefore will be deleted on skin update. And while using a nodes directory as widget they have no icons at all when using icon view.

I really like those icon views for menu items, but without icons it looks not that nice as it could.

Very Nice!

One thing I have noticed is the title on the home page on the left upper corner does not sit very well there due the overlap.. seems not 'natural'

Long press is not an action. It is a button modifier (like pressing shift or ctrl) which can be bound to an action (usually long press OK is bound to the contextmenu action). Users can bind whatever action to a button (you could even bind the up action to your down button if you like to hold the remote backwards)

The point is that the actions of buttons are defined in the user keymap. The skin doesn't map keys, it just defines what certain events triggered by actions do.

Skins can only define onclick, onback, oninfo, onup, ondown, onleft, and onright events.
