How can I get item info when I'm on widget item?
#1
Hi,

When I'm in internal menus like Kodi libraries (Movies/Shows), I can get their ListItems info using all the labels etc...
How can I get the same when I'm standing on a widget item in the Home screen?

The same way - either pressing 'i' or using the context menu and selecting 'Information'.

I don't talk about pressing "i".

I have a subtitles addon.
I have a logic there using it also when player is not playing.
I'm running my addon through contextmenu or by using the subtitles dialog.
Inside the addon I'm using labels such as "getInfoLabel("ListItem.Title")" etc...

It works inside kodi menus like TV Show and Movies library.
But in the main screen when standing on a widget item, I'm getting empty value.
How can I solve this?

If I remember correctly based on some work I did with the Extras addon, you might not be able to.  The widgets on the main menu don't have the same ListItem context and information as something showing in the library areas.  I'm hoping someone steps in to indicate how wrong I am about that though.
