Hey Bart. So I really do love this skin, however I find it to lag quite a bit after adding widgets or even bottom shortcuts. Its OK on my higher end devices like my PC, but anything lower I do get a lot of lag after adding widgets, and also if I enable bottom shortcuts and make quite a few bottom shortcuts for each section I do start to notice lag just navigating the home screen.. Only way I get good performance is if I disable bottom shortcuts and disable widgets.
Sooo, thats all fine because I really like this skin for all the other options it has, so I would like to make a request. I prefer speed and would like to use a simple main menu without widgets or bottom shortcuts. So I was wondering if it would be a possibility for you to add a feature. I would like to setup submenus as usual, since submenus dont tax any resources and no matter how many submenu items I have it doesnt slow anything down, so I was hoping it would be possible to have an option to make main menu items open the submenu as an action. I see its an option already to set a widget to show the submenu in widgets/common. I would like to be able to click a main menu item and have the action open the submenu in a window on the home screen that would show all of the items set in my submenu along with the icons set in the submenu. This way I can have a clean and fast home screen Do you think my request is a possibility? That would be a perfect setup for me. Thanks again Bart!!!

I've been AWOL for a while and a forum search hasn't brought up anything recent, so apologies in advance if/because this is a stupid question. The last time I was doing Kodi updates Skin Shortcuts updated to 2.0 and caused a lot of havoc with Amber. Has this been resolved yet?

After installing 20 my subtitles colour changed back to white, it was previously yellow, and there appears to be no way to choose a colour now in this skin.
The only way I could fix this was to go back to Estuary where I could choose yellow again. Changing back to Amber appears to keep the change.
