[QUOTE="JestriK, post: 70447, member: 23929"] Hello, I am currently developing my first plugin for MP (a PDF ebook reader). I have read the "how to develop your first plugin" but that doesn't seem to help with this. I am trying to add a list control to my GUI which will load all the names of the ebooks into it - a similar layout to the my music plugin.

I'm initialising the list control with the following - [code][SkinControlAttribute(21)] protected GUIListControl lstEbooks = null;[/code] Then trying to add an item to it with the following - [code]lstEbooks.Add(new GUIListItem("A new item!"));[/code] This the part in my XML file that declares the facade view (borrowed this from the My Music plugin) - [code] <control> <type>group</type> <description>group element</description> <animation>FlyInFromTop</animation> <posX>120</posX> <posY>97</posY> <width>50</width> <height>60</height> <control> <description>composite control consisting of a list control and a thumbnail panel</description> <type>facadeview</type> <id>20</id> <control> <description>listcontrol</description> <type>listcontrol</type> <id>21</id> <width>50</width> <height>60</height> <onleft>2</onleft> <onright>51</onright> <onup>2</onup> <ondown>2</ondown> <textcolor>FFFFFFFF</textcolor> </control> <control> <description>Thumbnail Panel</description> <type>thumbnailpanel</type> <id>22</id> <onleft>2</onleft> <onright>52</onright> <onup>2</onup> <ondown>2</ondown> </control> </control>[/code] Any help would be greatly appreciated!
