@jurialmunkey
Thanks for adding back/delete to select group in EPG. Works better than Back/delete for the menu. Keep up the amazing work.

Is it possible to remove the header text to have more space for clear logo?

First off, absolutely amazing skin. Beautiful, unique, and completely different in a very good way.
After setting up all my menus, submenus and widgets, I'm absolutely loving the way I can browse my library and how it's set up on the home screen. I thought i would be missing the library views that I am so used to, but after getting everything set up, I understand why you dont need them. To me this skin feels like a real step forward. Great job.

Now, I only have one thing that is driving me absolutely nuts. I hope I explain this correctly.

I use tags to separate my library into different categories. I have each of the 4 main menu items set, in each menu item I have set up my categories, which then leads to my submenu items which are the different tags i have assigned to items in my library. i have these set to use as widgets and I am able to view and browse the titles within each tag. There are no options to sort these widgets, they display as "sorted by default". Unfortunately, this sorting is not the same as sort by title, order ascending. For me, they do not display in alphabetical order (recently added library items appear at the end of the list). This happens for every tag in every widget. I encountered this in arctic horizon 2 as well, but I was able to fix this by sorting by title and order ascending in the widget menus during set up. Is there any way I can fix this. Its difficult and time consuming to view my library without this sorting. Is there any work around for me? I truly hope so, this skin is awesome. For me browsing my library the way I can with Fuse through categories submenus and widgets that respond to these selections is, at least to me a game changer and to be honest, I dont really want to go back. Anyone have any advice? Thank you guys!

Thanks! I'm really glad there are people out there appreciating this skin and what I'm trying to do here Big Grin

I knew it was going to scare people off at first hearing "no viewtypes" because it's definitely hard to break those old habits -- I think some people end up fighting the skin trying to make it into something from 10 years ago rather than understanding the adaptable approach it is going for.

I know about this issue. Should have a fix to allow applying a sorting method soon (should be in the next update if all goes to plan) -- and there's also a few other additions needed like other styles and limits etc.

Can track progress in this issue thread: https://github.com/jurialmunkey/skin.arc.../issues/28

Def a step forward. It only took a few moments of using the skin, once I had tailored it to my library, to realize that I had stumbled onto something that really works for me.

Very much looking forward to being able sort those widgets. I hope in the future it will be possible to sort all the different widgets and submenu widgets.

That's really my only request, its already replaced your other skin I was using and I look forward to see what else you come up with.

These options should be in now as of v0.2.0 -- they will appear under the "Use as widget" checkbox in the submenu customisation.

Cool looking skin, however it constantly crashes on Nvidia Shield TV 2019 (tube version). Also slow and laggy when navigating.

Please report issues and bugs on the github page with proper descriptions of how to reproduce the issue and crash logs. Just saying "crashes" or "slow" isn't helpful to me since I don't experience those issues.

webmaher · 2023-08-16, 11:20

when I sync subtitles window appear bottom over the subtitles and i cant see ... can you please move window to top and make transparent...
And if possible also i like ratings ikon (IMDb, metscore, TMDB...) in color..just like AH 2.
As i use Kodi "Omega" Alpha 2 on W10 work just amazing... the best skin ever made 4me, Thank you very much Cool

Been a long time AH2 user, and I jumped on AF since the last 10 days. Gotta say, your skins are getting better and better with each new project.

A couple of requests:

1. Colored icons for the ratings, just like it was in AH2.

2. Poster views in "use as widget" hubs. I can only get landscape views.

3. For some reason the video calibration changes randomly sometimes. If I want to edit the video calibration through AF skin, it just doesn't let me. I'd have to change skin to estuary and adjust the video calibration, f/b changing the skin back to AF.

Otherwise, this skin is just *chefs kiss*

loveart · 2023-08-17, 12:10

Just a suggest, when choose left top as show time, would you add current temp weather next the clock?
Thank about your great skin Smile

I agreed with the colored rating icons and poster view for slide up widgets.

Can you also add the "more items" button feature in AH2 when limiting widgets?

And I just want to ask how to clear my search history?

CouchGuy · 2023-08-19, 08:48

Thank you for adding poster view style in slide up widget.
But I noticed that the bottom widget in movie & tv hub doesn't show any information.

CouchGuy · 2023-08-21, 11:37

Slide up widget doesn't show information in poster mode.

Also

I wish that we can change main menu icons specially the Weather without changing it to custom because the highlight and dot indicator doesn't work. The sun icon feels smaller than the other icons because of it's tiny rays.
