Helly.
True as can be....but I didn't want to lead this thread into a tutorial nor do I know which xml files contain the code
Helly1206, Let me start by apologizing for a long story. It does have a point.
I appreciate your work. Everyone has their one views or "needs", and putting the final details on your customization represents (for me at least) the closest our abilities lead us to a degree of personal satisfaction.
For me, I was once a highly educated and paid professional (and who began his experience 53 years ago with Focal, Fortran, and a DEC PDP 8-S) and suffered a cognitive impairment as a I reached the pinnacle of my career. HTML, CSS, now Raspberry Pi, and yes, Kodi, have been lifesavers. I use the logic in trying to figure out how things work as rehabilitation. Your Xonfluence mod is an amazing rehab tool - it gives instant feedback, and has visual gratification that can be shared.
Searches, whether in general (like Google) or on community forums, are somewhat helpful, but mostly frustrating. Being able to make a search that is precise is not easy.
The reason why I chose the quote above is that I, too, am not rolling down the window to ask for turn-by-turn directions; just the name of the town I am looking for. (I hope I didn't show my age by the analogy to the point where "rolling down windows" is lost on too many people - cars all have power windows now I guess).
So can I impose, either by reply post, PM, or email, on the name of the .XML file I am looking for so that I can have a background against which I can see the text?
Regardless, thank you for sharing your knowledge, and putting up with those of us who can be frustrating to you.
