Nevermind, i can use a widget for that

Loving the skin, but don't like how the typeface changes size when you focus. 

Can anyone guide me on what to change to keep the typeface consistent? Would prefer it it was just highlighted on focus.

How do you change default view to Showcase in a addon, i can lock the view in another skins, can you add a lock view in copacetic.

Yes but I need some help figuring out the best approach as I don't use many add-ons. Currently you can customize the view for each container type (e.g. movies, TV shows, seasons, episodes etc).

Sometimes add-ons use those container types, sometimes they use their own ones (e.g. YouTube addon uses container type videos, which isn't used natively by Kodi) and some are blank.

Also some add-ons work in videos/music windows and some work in programs.

So do people prefer having one lockable view that applies to all addon content? Or all addon content that doesn't have a standard container type?

Others have asked for more customisation on add-ons (e.g. just unlock everything) so I just need a bit of consensus on how people like to use views for add-ons.

Assuming you mean for the list view, I'll share the parts you can update to change this next time I'm at my laptop. However any edits you make will be overwritten next time you update the skin

Am wondering, you say there's a normal and small size option for music album art (top of previous page). Could you please add a no album art option ? IMHO it just gets in the way of the backdrop.

And another Am I Blind question, but how do I see / find in progress items ?

If you press 'i' or whatever button/key you have assigned to info, it will toggle on/off the details and album art. This is a Kodi built-in behaviour, and is the recommended way to hide everything except the visualisation and/or background fanart.

For in-progress, there are two ways.

1) You can add it as a widget ('Continue Watching') to the homescreen. It is the first default widget, so as long as you enable widgets in Settings > Copacetic > Home, you should already see it when you press down on the home screen.

2)If you want to add it as a link to your menu instead, you can go to Settings > Copacetic > General > Home Menu, then add a new item and choose Video Library > Video Add-On > Copacetic Helper > Continue Watching > Create menu item to here.

No problem glad to help. Also FYI you can use any other addon as a source for widgets, so if you use Trakt to monitor your inprogress, you can use TMDB Helper plugin to use your Trakt progress list as the source for a custom widget.

Thanks a lot for this skin.
Hi,
I've read that you don't want alter the design of the home menu with sub menus (I agree, looks great!), so I was thinking how to achieve this.

The process will be:
Home menu item points to ActivateWindow(CustomSubmenu01,return).
That Window ID points to custom_submenu_01.xml, which is a Custom Skin Window editable from Settings (like your widgets/home menu).
That window has a fixed number of slots (you can edit only Name/Action/Background) and is customised with List View.

I don't know if this is possible.
What do you think?
Thanks again for this great skin.

Hello,
I am using version 1.11 and i have encounter the following issues :
1 - Clearlogos not displayed when the background has been changed to a non standard, for example, new movies, latest episodes, in progress tv shows, unwatched movies, etc... ( i am not using Widgets), it will be a solution if the name of the movie or tv show could be displayed in the screen
2 - When i am in the episodes list of a TV show and i go back, i arrive at the home menu, if i access the tv shows, it will display the same episode list, to go back to the TV show list, i have to access the home menu, enter the Movies list, exist and then when i access the the TV show, it will display the TV shows list.
3 - When finishing watching an episode, i have the see next option, i cannot use the "close" option, the arrow keys won't work.
Thank you.

Thanks for your great work! Loving the simplicity of the skin. One thing I can’t seem to manage is having the similar viewtype for movie sets. It seems rather random right now. With some showing as lists, others as grids and others as a strip. Can this be locked?

Glad you're enjoying it. Someone asked about this before. Indeed, this is default Kodi behaviour, it saves a viewtype for each individual folder: https://kodi.wiki/view/Databases/ViewModes.

One thing to note is that the viewtype within a set is actually the same one as your main movies view. So if you set Movies to Grid, this will be what you see in individual Sets unless you've previously chosen a different view in that particular set that Kodi remembers in the database above. 
From my experience, I can confirm that any I haven't changed before 

It is possible to force it, but I'll have to think about if I want to do it and if it's easy to keep the option for folder-level customisability for those who want it. As an example, if you have sets showing up within your movies view then you might want a different type of view for the large list of movies (e.g. grid) vs what you see when you click into the set (e.g. Strip, as there are fewer items). But that wouldn't be possible by enforcing the same viewtype because both views are technically container.content = movies.

Depending how you feel about it, you can delete ViewModes6.db when Kodi is closed. It's located in userdata/database. This will 'forget' all the previous views you've set across all skins though. But then if you change the view in your main Movies window in your library, you should see it in all individual sets.

Hey! I've got a question. Should the CinemaVision plugin work on this skin? I installed it but it won't turn on (error).

I've never used that plugin so probalby something needs to be updated in my code to accomodate it. Will try and look into this soon.
