How to create a Power Sub-Menu on Home Screen. (1 Viewer)

[someone86]

Is the Power submenu from the Gallery not in the standard config?

I made a fresh install with Streamed MP v1.4.2 on MP 1.2 Alpha and I don`t see it.

I like the menu, it would be great if this where in the Skin.

thanks

Hi,

That was more an example of what can be done with submenus.

You easily build your own using the BasicHome Editor.

Create a new menu item, I used MySkinInfo.xml as base...

Fire up the editor, on the design tab chose MySkinInfo from the left listbox, set the

Context Label to ON/OFF
Item Name to POWER
Single Image Folder to plugingsbg

Click Add Menu Item

Click and highlight the POWER item from the right hand listbox and click Edit/Add Submenu

From the list on the left select and drag and drop the SHUTDOWN, EXIT and RESTART items to the Level 1 Menu Items pane.

Click Save and Close and Generate on the main screen.


The actual POWER item will do nothing if selected,


thx

You can also make the root menu item 'Power' map to Shutdown, restart or Exit. This way you dont need to expland the menu to do your most frequent power action.
