    It seems that 'textalign center' does not work for labels or buttons.

    Is that so, or am I doing something wrong?

    I deliberately split them up not to create a kakafonie of issues in one thread. Also, this way the thread title can be specific, rather than something like 'please help with skin'. And, this way threads with issues that have been answered can be closed and don't need to be carried as bagage together with the open issues.

    Did I convince you?

    i think, hea means he doesnt want to create one thread with a lot of questions, because it would be a mess with just one thread an an unspecific title

    Sorry, you are right, not an English word. Maybe not a word in any language? Not an offending word either, not related to 'kaka'.

    I guess it's used in Dutch to describe a random collection of sounds or bad music, as opposed to a well composed collection of sounds being a symphony.

    Wertzui interprets it correctly. I didn't want to create one string with a random collection of skin questions.

    Either way, I don't mind. It's the answers I'm interested in and so far they have been interesting.

    Tried it again, can't get to work.

    Center, center, Centre and centre are all interpreted but with the same effect.

    The text moves all the way to the left, at about half the button width and when I make the button width 1366, the text centers in the screen. So the posX of the button is forgotten in the position calculation. The width of the button is taken into account.

    I experimented with this on the 'no' button in the DiaglogYesNo.xml file.

    Thanks for explaining. I found a passing reference to this here: https://www.team-mediaportal.com/wiki/display/MediaPortal1/HID%20Profiles which I had overlooked in the past. I would find it logical for a created custom profile to be automatically activated, but until that happens, I will try to create a wiki page for the current...

    Well, I had already recognized your problem, but I still wanted to point out the basic connections once again.
