Centering filmstrip focus? (1 Viewer)

WOW!!

So, if I have 5 covers in my filmstrip, then I can set 3 as the value and it will stay then in the middle of the screen?

Use scrollOffset 2. This keeps you 2 away from the edge, thus in the middle.

You start at the beginning of the strip when you navigate to the right you stay 2 away from the edge until you reach the end. Same when you go left.

On IRC now, will see if i can get someone to look at the code in your other post.

Any word on this?

Hi Sambal,

after some testing, we decided to commit your patch to SVN (20059).

Here the mantis entry: 0001573: Control for scrollOffset for FilmstripView is missing - MediaPortal Bugtracker.

for your work !

Hi!

Which file should I edit to get the desired effect? I have tried adding <scrollOffset>2</scrollOffset> to the filmstrip views of both common.facade.video.xml and common.facade.xml, but no luck.

I would like the filmstrip-view of music, pictures and videos to keep the focused item in the middle. I'm using Indigo as my skin.

You have to update to the latest SVN or wait for RC3, because the feature was added in some svn-build. with normal RC2 it wont work.


To all others: Im workin on a skin and use that feature too. It all works fine but when i go back to another screen and then back to the screen wich has filmstrip activated another item is selected and not the one in the middle... same when i first enter the screen wich has filmstrip activated. then always the first cover is activated. could someone help me with that?

I guess the line "It's not a bug, it's a feature" kinda applies here. It's "expected" behaviour.

well. when i'm in myfilms for example an go back to home and than go back to myfilms, suddenly there is another film selected and not the one i had before i went back. understand? can someone test it? maybe its a bug in my skin.
