Pease download, test, and let me know that it is indeed fixed for you.  Thanks.

One little issue I found when using 3 shelves. If you look at the top shelf in the image, you will see the overlay over the tiny poster overlapping. I also believe there is sufficient landscape there to make the 3rd poster the same size as the others. As a suggestion, you can probably shrink the TV Show labels a bit...maybe?

Sorry if I have missed it , but could there be an option to hide/remove the labels ?  Virtually all posters have the name of the movie/show in the artwork? would make more room to match the size of the top row posters with the second and third maybe?  Loving the changes Bart , excellent stuff.  

@ontap , the label only shows for certain types of shelves, like custom or favourites, or particular type of content, like favourites or genres, studios, etc.  If you look at the screenshot below, I have three shelves together where they are all standard shelves for tv shows and episodes, and they only show the posters, appropriately sized:



Whereas in the next screenshot, you can see three shelves together and the top shelf (shelf 3) has special content (in this case movie countries) that shows the labels.



I am glad you are liking the changes

Regards,

Bart

Fixes for fanart view.  I have increased the height of the Gallery so that 4 lines of plot can be seen instead of just 2.  This is consistent with the info shown if you have the "Show Info" enabled for this view.  I am now also displaying the movies that are in a collection if the collection does not have a plot, just like in all of the other views.

Updated fanart view gallery looks like this now:

The gaps above and below the shelves are wasted space especially if like me , you disable background fanart and remove the shelf back panels. The vertical view would look better with either 3 taller poster shelves to fill the screen or , at the size you currently have the posters , , 4 x shelves ? just my opinion , but as I posted when the option was restricted to two shelves , in vertical mode , the shelves need to utilise the screen top to bottom to look correct. Not a criticism , just an observation.

@ontap, I understand, and I agree that there is space that could be used in vertical mode. The issue was with coding the widgets. I had a lot of problems trying to manage a different size for vertical than horizontal. I will revisit this at a later time.

Just out of curiosity, you would not mind having the widget title and the widget item info just being at the top for all three shelves if the posters were larger?

(2020-06-07, 20:05)bsoriano Wrote: @ontap , would you be willing to test the latest from Git, Leia branch? I have added a new option when configuring shelves to show three shelves together with larger icons for the vertical menu.  The setting only shows up if you have selected three shelves together, the menu is vertical and the statistics line is not being shown or shown on the shelves.  It looks like this:



And the resulting shelves will look like this:



When you are not focused on any of the shelves, the labels above show what the three shelves are: going from left to right, the first label is for the top shelf, the second label is for the middle shelf, and the third label is for the bottom shelf.  I figured the user needed a way to remind himself/herself what were the shelves configured.

Please download, test, and let me know what you think.  Thanks.

Just booted up a fresh Amber ( when I download the skin from github , the skin not the repo, to get it into kodi I have to unzip it , change the gui number from 15 back to 14 and then install old version 323 from kodi repo then add the new folder and update ) anyway kodi now showing the skin as 3.3.88. Have selected 3xshelves together and set em up , but despite rebooting etc , theres no option to enable 3 shelves together with larger posters.

@ontap, you need to download the Leia branch, not Master. Master is Matrix only.

During the recording of a TV program, a red circle is displayed on the logo of the TV channel in the shelves.
Until then it's normal.

By displaying the marks at the bottom right of the TV channel's logo, the red circle is the right size.


On the other hand, by displaying the marks at the top right of the logo of the TV channel, the red circle is larger.


Would it be possible to have the smaller red circle, the same size as when it is at the bottom right ?

Thanks in advance.

@Cyberdom , thanks for reporting this.  Since I do not have a true top right image for when a channel is recording, and since channel logos can vary in size, I will leave the recording image in the same position even when you have enabled to show marks in top right.  I will include this change in the next update.

@bsoriano, it's good, the red circle is the right size again.
In the shelf of TV recordings, it is displayed at the bottom right of a recording in progress.

On the other hand, since the update 3.2.88, I noticed a problem on the shelf of the recordings of TV programs. The "Unwatched", "In progress" and "Watched" marks no longer appear.
Is this normal ?
