Hello

I am using yahoo weather widget on my Kodi. I am creating my own skin for weather.
My question is..

I have contents as below

<content>
           <item id="1">
              <label>$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.1.LongDay)], $INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.1.LongDate)]</label>
              <icon>$VAR[VarWeatherHomeIcon]$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.OutlookIcon)]</icon>
              <thumb></thumb>
              <property name="Temperature">$LOCALIZE[143] $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Temperature)]°</property>
              <property name="Humidity">$LOCALIZE[406]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Humidity)]</property> 
              <property name="FeelsLike">$LOCALIZE[402]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.FeelsLike)]°</property>
              <property name="HighTemperature">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Current.HighTemperature)]</property>     
              <property name="LowTemperature">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Current.LowTemperature)]</property>    
              <property name="DayOutlook">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Condition)]</property>
              <property name="Wind">$LOCALIZE[383]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Wind)]</property>
              <property name="Location">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Location)]</property>
              <property name="Provider">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(WeatherProvider)]</property>
              <property name="ProviderLogo">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(WeatherProviderLogo)]</property>
              <property name="Background">resource://resource.images.weatherfanart.multi/$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.FanartCode)]</property>
           </item>
          
              <item id="2">
              <label>$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.2.LongDay)], $INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.2.LongDate)]</label>
              <icon>$VAR[VarWeatherHomeIcon]$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Daily.2.OutlookIcon)]</icon>
              <thumb></thumb>
              <property name="Humidity">$LOCALIZE[406]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Daily.2.Humidity)]</property> 
              <property name="FeelsLike">$LOCALIZE[402]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Daily.2.FeelsLike)]</property>
              <property name="HighTemperature">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.2.HighTemperature)]</property>
              <property name="LowTemperature">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.2.LowTemperature)]</property>    
              <property name="DayOutlook">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Day1.Outlook)]</property>
              <property name="Background">special://skin/backgrounds/WETTERDEFAULT.jpg</property>
           </item>
...
</content>

then I want to display "Humidity" value today( item id="1") and day2( item id="2") each of them.
How to use control label?

For example
<control type="label">
              <left>50</left>
              <top>280</top>
              <width>420</width>
              <height>36</height>
              <font>primal_15</font>
              <label>$INFO[ListItem.Property(Humidity)]</label>
              <textcolor>$VAR[ColorFontNormal]</textcolor>
              <shadowcolor>$VAR[ColorFontShadow]</shadowcolor>
              <align>left</align>
              <aligny>center</aligny>      
            </control>

BUT, I did not get it.

Please advise me how to get "property"?

every item needs to have an onclick defined.
so add <onclick>noop</onclick> to each of them.

Thank you for answer.
But, I did not get resolve my issue yet.

Please look my code as below. I added "  <onclick>noop</onclick> ".

myweather.xml
....
<content>    
              <item id="1">
              <label>$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.1.LongDay)], $INFO[Window(weather).Property(Daily.1.LongDate)]</label>
              <onclick>noop</onclick>
              <icon>$VAR[VarWeatherHomeIcon]$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.OutlookIcon)]</icon>
              <thumb></thumb>
              <property name="Temperature">$LOCALIZE[143] $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Temperature)]°</property>
              <property name="Humidity">$LOCALIZE[406]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Humidity)]</property> 
              <property name="FeelsLike">$LOCALIZE[402]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.FeelsLike)]°</property>
              <property name="HighTemperature">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Current.HighTemperature)]</property>     
              <property name="LowTemperature">$INFO[Window(weather).Property(Current.LowTemperature)]</property>    
              <property name="DayOutlook">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Condition)]</property>
              <property name="Wind">$LOCALIZE[383]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Wind)]</property>
              <property name="Location">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Location)]</property>
              <property name="Provider">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(WeatherProvider)]</property>
              <property name="ProviderLogo">$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(WeatherProviderLogo)]</property>
              <property name="Background">resource://resource.images.weatherfanart.multi/$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.FanartCode)]</property>
              </item>
                
</content>    

<control type="label">
              <left>1000</left>
              <top>280</top>
              <width>420</width>
              <height>36</height>
              <font>primal_15</font>
              <label>$INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Humidity)]</label>
              <textcolor>$VAR[ColorFontNormal]</textcolor>
              <shadowcolor>$VAR[ColorFontShadow]</shadowcolor>
              <align>left</align>
              <aligny>center</aligny>      
</control>            
---> This is works which means I can see Current.Humidity value correctly on the screen.

<control type="label">
              <left>1000</left>
              <top>280</top>
              <width>800</width>
              <height>36</height>
              <font>primal_15</font>
              <label>$INFO[ListItem.Property(Temperature)]</label>
              <textcolor>$VAR[ColorFontNormal]</textcolor>
              <shadowcolor>$VAR[ColorFontShadow]</shadowcolor>
              <align>left</align>
              <aligny>center</aligny>    
</control>        
It does not work, There is nothing display.

I expect
 
<label>$INFO[ListItem.Property(Humidity)]</label>

then it will call Property(Humidity) as below
 <property name="Humidity">$LOCALIZE[406]: $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Humidity)]</property> 

Am I incorrect? Please correct me. Thank you.

                    <label>$INFO[Window.Property(Daily.2.LongDay)]</label>
                    <textcolor>$VAR[ColorFontNormal]</textcolor>
                    <shadowcolor>$VAR[ColorFontShadow]</shadowcolor>
                    <align>left</align>

hmm.. i'm starting to wonder if you're using it all correctly...
<content> is supposed to be used inside a container, and those properties are only available to the listitems inside the container.

too obvious perhaps, but just trying to make sure you've got the basics right.

please upload the full code somewhere if you need more help.
