Hello,
I started to look into creating a Script for XBMC and after getting my first little form to work, a big question arose.
The controls I added had no style at all. I naively thought that all controls would have the standard style of the current skin in XBMC (e.g. a button would have the texture and style of a button in the skin). Now it seems I not only need to be a coder to create a Script, but also a skinner ...
I searched the forums if there is no way to use the current style of the skin, but didn't get an exact answer, although it seems not to be possible. Is this true? It's clear to me, that the script can't adept to the overall UI of the skin. I just thought the basic controls like buttons, lists, etc. would have the same style.
Regards,
Steffen
