[QUOTE="Pat Clark, post: 888484, member: 123421"] The screen shots were helpful. I still don't understand why View is a "mode" rather than merely an "action", and why it's labeled "view" rather than "remind." The biggest change, to me, would be to have 3 actions (record, remind via email, remind via MP) and no modes. Seems a lot simpler. I don't understand skins very well, so perhaps it is skin related. When the list of TvWish "wishes" is first shown, it rotates once (180 degrees) around a vertical axis in 3D. When the hidden menu is accessed, the list rotates back where it came from. I did use the .xml files from DefaultWide, almost verbatim. I don't use a supported skin. At the time I wrote the comment, I hadn't yet gotten the context-menu method working, and was using the "main" method through a Basic Home button. The functions that struck me are the ones moving "wishes" (what do you call them? :) ) to and from the "modes," and from MP's schedule. Now that I have the context menu working, it's much better, and my comment is less meaningful. The other thing I can think of is the pervasiveness of "email" in the labels -- even the record mode is referred to as email mode in some cases -- when email seems to me to be a minor feature (albeit difficult to implement) being raised in the user's awareness unnecessarily. [In adding the context menu to DialogMenu.xml, I came up with a simple but interesting way to do it: I lowered the listcontrol a little and add TVWishList's button above it, labeled item zero and aligned with the numbered items of the list. Looks good.] =========== Please accept these comments for what they're worth ($0.02) and don't take offense. :) I really like the plugin. [/QUOTE]
