Hi.
So i'm currently working on my first skin.
I'm trying to achieve this here:

I only see my 4 green bars with "Videos/Music/Pictures/Settings".
When i press right on the "Videos"-button, all the 3 bars below should move down and the items "Movies/Series/Recently Added/Files" should show up.

I already have my 4 green bars and the bottom 3 bars already move down, if i press the right button.
But my "Music/Pictures/Settings" won't move down.
I tried to animate the items, but this won't work.

Do i have to create a single control for every selection, if i want to move the text?

hope you can help me

greetings

It's impossible... you have to do it differently... make every item a button and you can move them down on certain conditions.

can i still use a fixedlist and just change the items to button controls?

right now i got something like this:

Code:

<control type="fixedlist" id="300">
            <itemlayout width="1280" height="40">...</itemlayout>
            <focusedlayout width="1280" height="40">...</focusedlayout>
<content>
<item id="1">Button1</item>
<item id="2">Button2</item>
<item id="3">Button3</item>
</content>
</control>

I tried to add a
<control type="button" id="30"><label>Bla</label></control>
into the content. but that won't work either.

No you can't use a fixed list because it's not possible to move items.... you also can't have controls inside the content.

You need to have just buttons to achieve what you want to do or you request a feature for changeable, animatable width & height of the focusedlayout and wait.

Another thing would be if you display the submenu over an item.
