Hi there,

I've just searched about the topic - but nothing found.

Is there the posibillity to implement a scrolling function for the cover-view (music and video) instead of the up/down buttons ?

I'm using a touchscreen and it would be very helpfull to use this feature :)

I've also looked in the xml-files with the mp xml-editor to do it by myself in a new modded skin. But i can not find the responsible file.

Thanks for your help

Nope it is not. What he/we needs is a scrollbar for using touchscreen in filmstrip mode. But this is not possible, unfortunately! :(

You could use the scrollbar control from TVGuide. That works and should be put under the filmstrip.

Is that so?? That would be awesome... did not know about that feature! I will look into that later today... Is this under TVMiniGuide.xml, TVMiniGuide smal.xml or dialogTvGuide.xml? Or is it in some xml files that are incuded with TV Server?, because I dont have it installed.

Best regards
Thomas

    Normally you should find it in dialogTvGuide.xml and myTvguide.xml. The property type is hscrollbar. Here is a code example:

    <control>
    <description>Horizontal scrollbar</description>
    <type>hscrollbar</type>

    <id>28</id>
    <posX>322</posX>
    <posY>522</posY>
    <width>990</width>
    <height>30</height>
    <visible>yes</visible>
    </control>

    <height>30</height>
    <visible>yes</visible>
    </control>

    How do I integrate it with the Filmstrip code?

    RSK:
    common.facade.music.xml
    common.facade.video.xml

    OFC you cannot integrate it in the filmstrip control itself. You have to to put it in the respective xml as extra control and give it a visible tag so that it is only visible in filmstrip view (<visible>facadeview.filmstrip</visible>). And you have to experiment with the positions given in the example above.

    Hmm, just tried it here - I can see the scrollbar, but it doesn´t function. Will evaluate a bit more!
