As some skins don't show a Close/Standby button/menu option (or only in the topbar, which I disable as it's too cluttered and confusing for some users) I need a way to be able to bring it up with the Power button on the remote. Looking in remote config, there only seems to be Actions for Standby/Hibernate but I don't want the button to do that directly, in case the user accidentally presses it, I just want it to show a popup with Standby/Hibernate/Shutdown.
I had a look at Keys and Sounds as well but couldn't find a way to do it from there either. I tried assigning * to Action_Close_Dialog under Global, but it doesn't do anything when I press it.
EDIT: Ah, turns out it's Action_Shutdown I needed, not Action_Close_Dialog. I thought that would do a direct Shutdown, not show the menu.
I can also assign a remote button to Action Shutdown in Remote Config, so don't really need to do it in Keys and Sounds.
