Problem with custom menus/submenus - favourites
#1
Hi

I have created three custom menus, one for my children movies (smart playlists favourites), one for my my own movies (allso smart playlists favourites) and one for emulators/roms (launched by advanced launcher addon) in four diferent submenus(nes, snes, N64 and PSX).

The clue is, when I click at the nes submenu, the psx favourite is the one who pops up. If I try to remap the submenus, the problem just moves to one of the other submenus. Ive even experienced that one of the favourites did start when i hit the original mapped "programs" button. Then I had to delete the favourite who was launched and the advanced launcher item who was fovourited (not the plugin).

I have 20 favourites out of 20 possible in my favourite list, if that is relevant info.

Do you have any clue what causes this? Help is much appreciated...

Here is the logs, wasnt sure which one you need, so I posted bothSmile

this one may be difficult to sort out, but we'll try anyway.

i've just reviewed all related code in the skin, but didn't spot any issues...

so let's move on to the Debug Log. here's the relevant part:

this tells me you've clicked on the first submenu item in the third custom menu, correct?
and it's mapped to the launcherID3 item of the launcher plugin, right?


is it always the nes item that's giving you issues?
you say if you remap the submenus, the problem moves,
but is it still the nes item or are you now getting an issue with a different item?

could you make sure that launcherID3 is really the nes item ?

Hi ronie, and thanks for your reply.

Now ive deleted all the launcher items and their favourites, made new launchers, new favourites and mapped all the custom buttons from scratch.

I dont know what Ive done right this time, but now all my menus working as they shouldSmile I take up this post if the problem appears again.

Btw, is it possible to add more than twenty favourites?

oki, but ive experienced that the svn version crashed now and then, so I prefer your stable version, even if I would love to have all the svn featuresSmile Is there a way to easily increase the amount in the stable skin?

Sorry if im a pain in your ass, with all these questionsBlush

you'd have to copy this code to custom_DialogFavourites.xml
