facadeView control Question (1 Viewer)

[falkyre]

Hi all,

I am using a facadeView in my plugin to display movie information. One of the things I do is let the user select from a facadeView and then show more information about the movie. Upon selection, I hide the facadeView from the user and replace it with the movie information. However, there is one part that I can't hide (or even update manually) and I have no idea how to do it. In the facadeView, if you hover over an item, the top right hand side of the screen will show the text of the item you are hovering over. Is there a way to change this control label? Is it part of the facadeView control?

Anyways, in the attached picture, it's the item circled in red.

Thanks!

No idea what skin file you started from but lIRC the text is from a property that gets set.
So you are looking for a label control in the xml file with

<label>#selecteditem</label>

HTH,

Patrick,

you rock!!! That was it, I've been looking for that for a couple of weeks and now one less thing to deal with.

Hmmm, properties seem like a great idea, must investigate them more. I take it that the intention behind the GUIProperty class is to share values bewteen different areas within MP?
