With the code below :

xml:
    <control type="group">

        <control type="panel" id="50">

            ....

            

            <itemlayout width="1088" height="64">

                <control type="label">

                    <left>90</left>

                    <width>auto</width>

                    <label>$INFO[ListItem.Label]</label>

                    ....

                </control>

            </itemlayout>

            

            <focusedlayout width="1088" height="64">

                <control type="label">

                    <left>90</left>

                    <width>auto</width>

                    <label>$INFO[ListItem.Label]</label>

                    ....

                </control>

            </focusedlayout>

    </control>

for all item unfocus

xml:
<label>$INFO[ListItem.Label]</label>

is displayed

With Item Focused

xml:
 <label>$INFO[ListItem.Label]</label>

is not displayed with the same property

Solution :

in <focusedlayout></focusedlayout> :
            
replace

xml:
<left>90</left>

with

xml:
<posx>90</posx>

or 

replace

xml:
<width>auto</width>

with

xml:
<width>500</width>

For me it is strange to not have the same behaviour with "<itemlayout></itemlayout>" and "<focusedlayout></focusedlayout>". 

So I hope you understand that I mean...
The solution is very simple but I'm a bit curious. Is this a known problem or is it normal ?

Anyway thanks for any answers

Could you please post some screenshots because I don't know what you mean by 'is not displayed with the same property'?

Thanks for your answer. 

I mean by "the same property" :

xml:
<left>90</left>

<width>auto</width>

works in 

xml:
<itemlayout></itemlayout>

not in 

xml:
<focusedlayout></focusedlayout>

I tried and did appear after several seconds. Still odd though.

If you need to use auto width then try adding min and max values.

<width min="100" max="500">auto</width>

Indeed with <width min="100" max="500">auto</width> all works fine.

In any case, thank you to have confirming that there is a issue.

Why are you trying to use auto width in focus/itemlayout anyway?

You may as well just set

Code:

<width>100%</width>

in layout. Auto width is only useful for controls in grouplists or for buttons to match texture size to label.

It is not really my choice. Actually I mod a existing Skin for my need and for understanding codying.

So at beginning <width>100%</width> already exist
But for consytency I would prefer replace all <posx>number value</posx> by <left>number value</left>
and same with <posy>number value</posy> by <top>number value</top>

but combined value <posx>number value</posx> and <width>100%</width> works 
and combined value <left>number value</left> and <width>100%</width> don't works 

There are so many nuance to understand in code in all part.
Eg I don't see any difference between <posx></posx> and <left></left>

So step by step with time all of this become more clear for me ...

<Off topic>
I have replace lot of part with your tools :
 - script.texturemaker
 - script.skinvariables
 - script.wikipedia
 - plugin.video.themoviedb.helper

wow, these tools are amazing. There is no limit
even if you are a skilled developer, the time spent testing all the possibilities must be huge...

Paid you a coffe will be more signifiant.
But I would to say thanks you for all this amazing works sharing with community

Ah I see. For that, you don't need width at all. You can just define a right tag to tell the control how far from the right side it should end e.g.

xml:


<control type="label">

    <left>200</left>

    <right>100</right>

</control>

So if you layout width is 1088, that control will be 788 wide because it starts 200 pixels from left side and ends 100 pixels before the right side.

wow, these tools are amazing. There is no limit

Thanks
