Re: AW: Avalon community Mods

Weather on BasicHome did not work using the latest files by Dragy. Then I copied the basichome.weather.xml from Avalon's GitHub repo and it worked.
You are right.. I accidently copied the file from StreamedMP into the zip.. OOPS
I uploaded a new zip with the correct file :)

    Hi

    There was a bit of an error in the onlinevideos xml file, in that the % buffering did not show when you were on list view when looking at the videos. This is the first time I've had a play around with the skin files but I got it to show eventually, so I've attached the modified version of the file in case others want it showing again.

    The only changes I made were to one of the controls, there are 2 controls for the buffering label, one seems to be for the listview, and the other for the icon or big icon view. Here's the first control. All I changed was adding a plus sign to the visible statement, and changing the posX value so it didn't overlap some other text.

    Code:
        <control>
    		<description>Buffering Label</description>
    		<type>label</type>
    		<id>0</id>
    		<posX>185</posX>
    		<posY>875</posY>
    		<align>left</align>
    		<font>AvalonLight12</font>
    		<textcolor>6aa5cb</textcolor>
    		<label>#OnlineVideos.buffered % #OnlineVideos.Translation.Buffered.Label</label>
    		<visible>string.equals(#OnlineVideos.IsBuffering, true) + [facadeview.list]</visible>
    		<animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="300" delay="350">WindowOpen</animation>
    		<animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="0" delay="0">WindowClose</animation>
        </control>

    @ Dragy: Looks good, I have just changed the following locally to be compatible with the latest night release - V 0.32

    <control>
    <description>current wind label</description>
    <type>fadelabel</type>
    <id>0</id>
    <posX>1365</posX>
    <posY>255</posY>
    <width>433</width>
    <label>#WorldWeather.TodayWindSpeed - #WorldWeather.TodayWindDirection</label>
    <font>AvalonLight14</font>
    <visible>string.equals(#WorldWeather.View,Condition)</visible>
    <animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="300" delay="350">WindowOpen</animation>
    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="0" delay="0">WindowClose</animation>
    </control>

    Now I get to see the wind in "knots" (my preferred unit) rather than Mp/hr :)

    World Weather plugin - Nightly build v0.3.3

    is someone working for a MyEmulators skinfile?

    Not me sorry, I don't use that plugin.

    Re: World Weather plugin - Nightly build v0.3.3 ( details of new features).To run this version install Dragys weather files from here and then paste the attached file into the Avalon directory.

    No doubt Dragy will update the weather files when the next official version is released - the nightly builds are just for testing so use with caution.

    EDIT: Added updated language file from Micropolis's release (just in case you forgot to check for a new file when installing the nightly build)

    EDIT2: Slightly modified WorldWeather file uploaded - not a major change though. There seems to be a problem going down the menu from "Browser Map" to the "Refresh" button - I have noted this in the World Weather thread.

    Online Videos

    A couple of updates for the Online Videos files:

    @ibmonkey: I used your file but added the "Now Playing" overlay.

    + Added "Now Playing" button to the hidden menu.

    @Bleazle, you did something wrong with your skin file :) I fixed it, now the menu works.

    Very nice. Shouldn't the menu disappear once you've used it though? Now If I press Geo clock for example, the menu doesn't go away but keeps blocking the picture. ;)

    FYI, you can also play with these settings: show TV Server Configuration shortcut => Right-click => Properties => Compatibility => Change High DPI settings That way you don't have to change the whole scaling of Windows just for this particular application
