Ok great, i hope we don't hit a limitation of the engine already.

@Mathias
I implemented for s test a gradient blur shader in MP2, but removed it again bacsuse I saw there is already a blur effect....
If you like I can readd it next week and post the updated skin engine for a test
I am currently in Toronto visting friends, so I can't provide it before next week

Best would be a gaussian blur with configurable radius.

You can create a branch and add the shader there, maybe it is already better than current implementations for my special case!

 

[FreakyJ]

I meant gaussian blur, sorry

First steps for dialog and button style. Note: this is a first draft, as I don't have the Blur shaders available yet! So the dialog has 2 "borders" that act as placeholder will be modified further once better shader is available.

And with modification of the common button template other screens now look like:


Few obvious things that needs to be modified:

• "Close" control in dialog (well, don't forget mouse+touch users )
• BreadCrumb navigation on top
• "Connected" indicator in top right (can probably removed at all)

I have changed the "master_menu.xaml" screen so that the main menu is shown in a "dialog style" on demand (Info key). This brings full space for items right now:

Once menu opens, it appears over items. Currently both things are focusable, this needs to be changed (and background brush added). But anyway, this approach is possible

I don't like the close button Oo looks a bit to big.... Wizaaaaaard

@morpheus_xx are the these screenshots from MP2 client i.e. rendered from what's in https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/tree/FEAT_ApolloOne/MediaPortal/Incubator/ApolloOne or saved copies of the PSD that @wizard123 did?

 

[morpheus_xx]

Yes, better now

All live, no fakes

The screenshot are from ApolloOne branch at github, but I have not yet pushed all changes. Give me few minutes for cleanup and check them out
