That's the idea From there, it only takes some minor modifications to be able to use the new widget selection:-

Change home.xml line 757 to

Code:

<visible>!IsEmpty(Container(9000).ListItem.Property(widgetPath))</visible>

so that the blocs will display more generically (and as the widgets that don't want those blocks don't have a widgetPath property set)

Remove the <visible /> line from the template (between the <condition /> set for the template, and <skinshortcuts>visibility</skinshortcuts>, the template should already only be visible at the right times.)

Switch the skin shortcuts management dialog to 312 - and if skin.helper is installed, you can also remove the library data provider widgets from the overrides.xml, as that script makes them selectable by default.

And update the HomeWidgetTitle/HomeWidgetSubtitle/HomeWidgetPlot variables. (OK, that one takes a little more work )

I've done the first three, and am already able to view any of the widgets selectable with gui 312, albeit without labels/art

(Edit: Its worth noting both the templates/new widget stuff needs skinshortcuts 0.5.3 which is awaiting a request to be updated on the repo)

As regards the submenu, I went for ondown from the main menu, but onright from the widget sounds good too

Ok, gave it a quick shot. I got it work too. It's interresting but t's not something I could have found by myself. This requires some advanced knowledge of both scripts. Will get deeper into this tomorrow to try to correct the missing infos. Also the 312 button requires to be added as a hidden one (to allow my sendlick). I failed to open the select dialog at first tries because 309 doesn't need to be there. Sounds also interresting for window background management.

And can I just congratulate you again on KOver - not only is it a great skin, but the code is clear enough that an amateur skinner like me can follow it without too much difficulty. Great stuff

Thanks. Conq is made this way, and it helped me a lot. I wanted to also keep this "Clear view" in mine. It's really convenient when I need to modify something.
