1) ok, so after I have my theme file i need to zip it ?
2) I tried to use filter=skinshortcutsonly, and it said that it "successed" but nothing happened after the restore... my menu remained as he was.
3) I'll try in a moment

4)
Advance Launcher let you create folders with custom items, you can combine favourite and some special items,
the special items for example can be "exe" files or "url" files, for example, some user has created a folder that contain:
youtube url,google, facebook etc...
and he want to assign that folder to a menu named "Internet"
so I want to let him choose that folder from the widget dialog...
No rush for it, but its nice to have.

Edit:
3) unicode error: http://pastebin.com/ThEyKcq7

1) Yes, but you can also export your themes from within the theme dialog (contextmenu button).
In the zip are both the theme file and the screenshot stored.

2) Was there something stored inside the backup file ?

4) Ah, okay, I understand. Well once the current version of skinshortcuts has been released to the Kodi repo there will be looked at.

3) I can't find the unicode error in the code. I have added somre more deub logging, could you please test with latest Git and share the error in the log ?

1) Oh, Contextmenu button... - that was hidden... I think its better to move it to somewhere else from contextmenu in the "choose theme" dialog - its not the obvious place to export theme to zip...
so about that: no way to let user load from ".theme" file directly? ill just tell them pass the ".theme" files between them, or - make the "createcolortheme" let you choose if you want to export to zip

2) I made a changes in the skinshortcuts, refreshed, created backup, restore shortcuts to default, tried to restore my backup - and nothing.
right now I tried to do it again but in the restore I get error during some unicoded path file, I'm providing log in the next line....

3) mm this is the log http://pastebin.com/fq1U5UTc but I think this one will be more useful: http://pastebin.com/CWhykTQ4 - those are the reason that script failes, actually I don't use them anymore, In the past I set them from skinshosrtcuts dialog background picker to test and fix some unicode errors overthere, so they are causing the problem. If it hard to you to fix, I'll fix it in the next few days.

and just checking - are you pushing updates of the helper to the official repo? you changed the version to 0.0.4 and I auto-get it somehow, I wondered If you did it...
