[QUOTE="TritonT, post: 132099, member: 26020"] First up, thank you very much for adding the xap-temp.notification, its working great with my setup. I was having a think about state/level images and I can't think of any way round choosing your range manually for sensors. For example my temperature 1-wire devices function from -55C to 125C but I'm only interested in the range -10C to 40C (if it goes outside this range global warming has kicked in and I probably have more important things to think about!). I have skinned the plugin for use with Replicant (16:9). Unfortunately I have run into a few problems. [URL="http://www.typetech.org/mediaportal/automation.jpg"]Screenshot[/URL] 1. I have changed the layout to single column for simplicity which means I would like to use 'remote control down' to get to the next item (at the minute it goes item - on button - item) and 'remote control right' to get to toggle - on - off, in that order. I think its not possible to do this at the minute, as it is controlled in the plugin not the skin. 2. I don't know how to left-align or right-align any of the text in the individual items. 3. Pressing 'remote back' from a particular location or category should take you back to the location or category menu not out of the plugin. 4. I don't know how to get it to say 'Automation' at the top of the screen without editing strings.xml I have also done a few sets of state/level images for the Replicant skin - red to blue, grey to white etc. I think we need a convention on file names so that they can be used. eg 'State_namegoeshere_level_0.png where State is constant and level_0, level_on etc is standard. The plugin gets used every day by me and it works very well. If we could get a bit more control over the layout it would be even better. PS As soon as I get Replicant sorted out I'll skin the plugin for a couple more 16:9 skins if you want. [/QUOTE]
