How to disable views in MP. (1 Viewer)

[P.Drummond]

I am working on a skin at the moment and want to disable all but the List View.
Is it possible to do this. I try removing the controls for the unwanted views in References.xml but it locks up when I go into for example the Music or Video modules. Also MP stores the last View for each folder. If I could make it set each folder to List View when they are accessed then I could just take the Button for changing the View off each module. Is there a way to disable storing the last view ?

Would appreciate it if someone in the know would give me some feedback on this issue.

As I see it some great skins could be done without using all the views.

Thanks

Surely someone knows something about this...

Greetings P.Drummond!

Another solution would be to first change the attributes for the file: “FolderDatabase3.db3” in the database to “Read-Only” after you have chosen your preferred viewing mode and then put the “view-as button” offscreen.

Do not remove or disable <!-- --> the entire “View-As button” section in the xml files. Just put if of position, change the <posX> values so that it ends up outside you monitors resolution for example (<posX>2113</posX>) also change <onup> and <ondown> for other controls that relates to the same “id” as the “View-As button” so that it can not be selected when scrolling up/down.

Cheers.
