Help needed: Skin mod - Monochrome

[Cafficionado]

Hi,

I'm quite new to MediaPortal and I am still in the process of fitting the whole system to my needs.

I use the latest version of Monochrome (thanks a lot for that!) and did a bit of tweaking mainly to the MyMusicPlayingNow-Screen. Basically, I need all the labels larger and therefore I need more space. No problem here, I changed the fonts, moved the Information around, works fine.

But...

1) I would like to get rid of all the last.fm stuff (Ratings and tag-matches) in this screen but if I delete all the controls the screen does not work correctly. I guess due to missing IDs. Therefore, I set all the corresponding controls to invisible and the information is not displayed anymore. That works but is not exactly what I want.

2) If possible I want to have that information displayed in an additional screen (eg "More") or in a slide-in area (like the menues in the music screens).
- For an additional screen I do not know how to link an XML-File to a hyperlink-ID to open that new screen with a button. And I still have the problen from 1, ie in this case I would have all the corresponding IDs in two files.
- For a slide-in or something like that, which would be even more elegant, I do not have the slightest idea how to get this to work.

I would appreciate every hint or solution. Many TIA.
