I have a question about xmls that don't generally get used. I'm not going to be using the Wizard files in the skin I'm working on and have in fact removed the button from my Settings screen, since I have never needed it. As I don't want to re-skin dialog xmls that don't show up anywhere except when you are using the Setup Wizard, I'd...

If all else fails, you can create your menu buttons without a label, then place the label separately over the button (2 copies for each focused and unfocused conditions, with appropriate visibility). I don't think this will work for animated/scrolling menu's (facade and MyHome menu) but works great for static menus. Chuck

Hi citizenkeys, I'm not familiar with wingrep... I've been happy with MS XML Notepad.

I don't think the 'white.bmp' is used for anything else. It is 13x13 but when it is stretched for the keyboard text box, it looks absolutely crappy (imo), so I enlarged it to 50x500 and put a border around it. Now the keyboard has nice square corners and is set off from the background. Chuck

is it possible to add a hyperlink directly to play a file and not having to use one of the view panels (list, filmstrip, etc.)? i could see why such a feature might be disabled for security. however, i'd like to do something similar to DVD menus directly through custom files.

you can not remove default plugins xml´s from skins for mediaportal. All default Pluginstuff must be inside a skin to work proper for MP. So all Pluginstuff what is inside original default skin Blue3, you can not delete in the skins. But you can change the gfx to empty ones with same names. 1 pixel * 1 pixel size. Greetings...

First of all, thanks very much to everyone who is involved in putting this software together. I changed over to MP after running MCE 2005 for a few years and so far I've been really impressed.

This done using "FlipY". Easiest way of finding out how to use it, is by looking at a skin that already uses it, as the wiki (IIRC) lacks information regarding this (amongst other things). EDIT: See -> https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/skins-50/image-reflections-52263/
