Not sure if you know about this already but some notification texts are really hard to see. This example is a reminder of an other program that is about to start on a different channel.

Great MOD! Keep up the good work! But I have some requests:

On the first image there is some text misplaced, in the left menu. Please fix
On the second image: can "films" and "categorie lijst" be reversed in order, like it was in Titan? I always want to see the categorie lijst first, but now I have to press down first I think the wife will be in trouble with this. When I disable the moving pictures submenu, I also go directly to all movies, without an option to go to the category list.

Thanks!

Hi Marcel;
I've been a fan of yours from using your previous Titan MODS and I must say you have put together a masterpiece with TITANIUS. This is what I have been looking for, great work.
Now for a few questions:-
1. I have modified my Basic Home pages in Titan and I have done the same with TITANIUS. In my page 1 I have switched Pictures and Radio positions, you said in your update version1.1.01 that you had switched them, I never saw that in your downloads (1.1.0.4). (See Jpeg 1). As a result of this switch, I noticed the hovers did not switch and are out of position, How can I correct that.
2. I really want to get rid of OnLine Videos from page 1 and move it to the Extensions position in page 2 and keep Extensions in Home Plugins only. (See Online Videos button Jpeg 2). So can you tell me how to do that. I don't want to disable Online Videos to get Pictures. I hope you can follow what I'm trying to do.
3. Count me in for testing as I have aquired some skills in modifying XML files.

Thanks in advance.

Hello @powermarcel10 ,

I've to admit, that I didn't install your skin yet, because I'm just building up a new HTPC/Steam machine and so I didn't update and administer the old system very much. But since the beginning I am very interested in this project and, honestly, I am very happy that there finally is someone who really cares and fixes all the Titan-bugs which were reported for months and nothing moves... So, thank you very much for your work - Titanius seems to be a much better base for any customization than the original Titan skin.

Anyway, I have some things:
1. (a rather small and maybe silly one, but as you I'm a perfectionist): You changed the font color of the RSS-feed into white - why? By browsing the skin gallery I noticed that basichome is now the only screen where the button panel font color is white. In Moving pictures, TV series, TV section etc. all texts in the blue button panel are still black, so I think it's somehow a break to the other sections to define the RSS-font color white in basichome, don't you think?

2. You wrote a great howto on designing your own basichome buttons. By reading this a bug/feature (I'm not sure what it is) came to my mind, which annoyed me somehow since the beginning of Titan: why are the basichome buttons defined by default in TV, Music, Movies (either Moving Pictures or Videos or whatever plugin), Radio, etc.? Honestly, I don't really get it. Why is it not only button 1 (screen 1, top left), button 2 (screen 1, top middle), ... button 12 (screen 2, bottom right)? This would make customization and editing much more flexible I think, because everyone uses a different set of plugins and wants to place these plugins in a different way on his homescreen.
For better illustration what I mean: At the moment customization works like this: "I want the steam button in the top middle -> The top middle button originally was defined as TV button -> I use the TV button for my Steam plugin -> I have to rename the steambutton-graphic-file to basichome_button_tv.png" - with the flexible way it would work like this: "I want the steam button in the top middle -> I change the name of the graphic into basichome_button_2.png". This even gets worse when trying to edit the submenus: all .xml-comments and descriptions always refer to the section the button links to, and not to the button itself, which is completely illogical to my mind and makes editing really hard - when I want to use the top right button for music and want to edit the button's submenu, it would be much more helpful to label the section in the .xml-file "submenu for button 3 which overlays button 1 and 2" instead of "Movies submenu". Do you understand what I mean?

3. What happened to the one-screen (2x5 tiles) theme in Titanius v1.3? I personally would prefer this one to the 2-screen-standard, but unfortunately I didn't see any screenshots or any word about it in the release notes. Is it still in development?

I think I will build my new machine this weekend and I will try out Titanius and give you feedback. E.g. it seems that nobody uses an LCD display with minidisplay-plugin, as there were a lot of bugs in original Titan - so let's fix them in Titanius finally...

You need to update the x and y position/width/height parameters in:
includeBasicHomeButton.Emulators2.xml

Basic home menu looks funky when emulators plugin is enabled.
