Pressing up on content just bumps it or goes to the search depending on what I've set it to do. Is there a specific place I need to be to access the wall view?

I have a widget in my movies hub that is just all titles, and like a library I'd like to be able to view it in wall mode and filter and sort as needed.

Oh figured it out, I have to go into the widget to make it possible. Doesn't this mean wall view is inherently only available when using combined widgets because that's the only way you can expand an individual widget by clicking on its tab? How else can you trigger wall view? Feels a little unintuitive to have to go into each group to access wall view rather than just being able to do it when in the hub itself

Wish that TMDb have an option to change sorting method in providers & genre like new releases or popularity, ratings, etc.

I'd like to know if there is or will be the option to disable the search on the menu? On my setup, I have a search widget, and would like to remove it as an option on the side menu
Happy New Year to all

I don't know if it is possible, but I don't see a way to change the favorites view. Instead of having the list appear with the covers in small size, I would like to put it in poster or landscape, can this be done? Can you change the order of favorites so that the most recently added comes first? I don't see how to do it either, thanks in advance

You can do that (and a lot more) with discover

Addons > TMDbHelper > Discover Movies / TV
Add rule > With watch provider
Add rule > With genre
Add sort > release_date

If you save your rules then you can use them for a widget. The saved rules will appear in the discover section.

No not possible. It is an experimental effect which is quite complex and relies on some very inefficient skinning tricks to get around limitations in Kodi's skinning engine. It essentially fakes the effect by hiding the list and then overlay fake copies of the items in the same positions.

Consider a wall needs 18 onscreen posters plus another 2 offscreen on either edge for scrolling. As every widget needs a different ID, then even a very modest setup of 10 widgets would need 220 fake items to achieve the wall effect. The skin would quickly grind to a halt.

That's why it's only possible in the library window where there is a single view container with fixed ID.

It also doesn't really make sense for widgets as it would be impossible to get to in most layouts. And even in the layouts where it would be possible, it really would only work for the very first widget (which would be even more confusing -- why this one random widget that goes to the wall?).

Can you add a favourite to a widget in this skin?
If so, I can't work out how to do so. I've tried most of the options in Widget Customisation, but can't see how to add a favourite.

Makes sense, thanks for clearing that up

Is there a way to access the wall without having the combined categories?

That's great! I should edit my providers custom list.

QQ: The video player menu is showing this strange gradient since a week or so (gradient is three 'layers' with clear lines)- or maybe I didn't notice before. It looks like a color range issue? Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

That's definitely not what it's supposed to look like. Never seen anything like that before. Not quite sure what would cause that to happen. Definitely should be a smooth gradient.

Today the skin updated and boom ..all gone?

Today, after another skin update, I get Skin variables error and my Kodi is without any side menus or widgets. Whatever could have happened?
