Exit button on Blue3 Basic Home Screen (1 Viewer)

[Sam.F]

Hi Everyone,

I'm wanting to know if there is a way to enable / create an exit button on the Blue3 Basic home screen the same as what you see on the Classic home screen.

I've searched far and wide but can't find anything and I've even tried modifying the skin myself, but I don't really know what I'm doing

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers,

Sam.

Is anyone able to point me to where I can get some more info on this?

Sam - do you mean the round button with an x in it? If so, you can see it in the Blue3 myhome.xml at the bottom of the file called Exit Button. The texture (which is the actual graphic) is called button_close_focus.png when it is in focus, and button_close_nofocus.png when not in focus.

You can copy the control from MyHome to BasicHome but then you will have to adjust the position (posX and posY tags) and set the navigation (onup/down/left/right tags) from and to other buttons.

The problem with adding it to BasicHome is what key will you use to access it? The arrow keys are used to navigate among the menu buttons and the up arrow is used to go to the topbar. Maybe you can use the down arrow?

Most users who use BasicHome just program a key on their remote to exit or shutdown MP. It's a lot easier

Brilliant! That's exactly what I wanted! Thanks for the assistance Dadeo!

In my case I needed a button which was mouse activated only as it's on a MP client only install on my Kid's PC which doesn't have a remote.

Cheers again for the help
