Is there something like a horizontal ListControl for skinning?

i'm trying to do something similar to the xbmc v11 confluence skin main menu (horizontal), which seems to be a pain to do without such a control :)

Thanks

    Nope, there is no such control. There are hacks which most of the skins use but which require tons of (button, image) controls, animations and visibility conditions.
