I was playing around changing the look of the buttons on the main OSD and had it just right, then I decided so no one would change the look and feel, I selected from within the settings OSD not to display settings. Well everyhting works great including I now can not get into settings to change skin types.
How do you get setting back on the main OSD if you highlighted the do not show in the settings OSD sub menu? Is there a special key sequence, that would be cool, could hide it from the kids.
not sure what you mean by 'main OSD' ?
i assume the home menu ?
if you removed it from the home menu (and ignored the "Don't remove unless you are really sure!!!" warning)
than the only way to get it back is to first quit xbmc, next edit guisettings.xml in the userdata folder.
change:
Code:
<setting type="bool" name="Transparency!.settingsinhome">true</setting>
Code:
<setting type="bool" name="Transparency!.settingsinhome">false</setting>
now you can start xbmc again and the settings button will re-appear.
if you ever want to remove the settings button from the home menu, it's best to add it to the shutdown menu first, so you can access settings from the shutdown menu.
Settings > Skin Settings > Shutdown
