All the pro's and con's you mentioned are exactly right. It's good to have the Watchlist using the standard library behaviour so it acts like any other window. The info displayed for Watchlist isn't perfect - it would be good to see the show name and, for this particular window, I prefer to see the series poster instead of episode thumb. Is it possible to achieve that with a visible expression? RE: reFocus 1.1.0 for Gotham (Preview Release) - sualfred - 2014-04-18 *dumidumdidum* Just want to thank you for your great skin.

And I really like the mix of color (blue and fanart) with gradient black! I love refocus and to make some changes, as we prefer is pretty easy. Jeroen thank you to you for this wonderful skin! Changing background color isn't a skin option is it? Can you tell were to change this? RE: reFocus 1.1.0 for Gotham (Preview Release) - Reynald - 2014-04-19 Not Jeroen has not set the option.

The only view option is list view, It says thumbanils, but doesnt chnage to thumbnail view. I gave the iplayer as an example as it includes all the channel logos. I`d like to be able to view the thumbnails at once instead of the list view, where you see an icon at a time.The thing is, setting viewtypes for add-ons is a major PITA. I'll try to explain. Add-ons can "report" to XBMC & skins what type of content they provide. So for instance movies, episodes, programs, etc. The way it works in reFocus is that the viewtypes that are made available for you to choose are based on that same content type. So, it makes no difference whether you go into your movie library, or into an add-on that is reporting it's content to be movies. All the viewtypes (apart from Gallery) and the information labels are tailored to that specific content type. Because if there's one thing I really dislike is viewtypes that aren't really suitable for the content being listed. I don't want to see a poster format for episodes, or episode thumbnails for movies for example. I put a lot of effort in making sure that doesn't happen. Unfortunately, some add-ons use a content-type that doesn't fit the actual content being listed. In the past I tried to regulate that on skin level and built in all kinds of workarounds, sometimes even for specific add-ons. I have given up on that tbh, as it is impossible to do completely and makes a total mess of my skin code. Also, quite frankly, the add-on is the cause of the "problem", and it should be solved in the add-on and not the skin. Now in the case of the iPlayer add-on it actually does not report a content type at all. Which, in some cases is fine. Because if the website / service the add-on is getting content from doesn't / can't provide metadata that suits a content type it's better to do that. That does mean however that only the list view is available as a fallback view unfortunately. The general problem basically is that many add-ons use many different sources, and there is no standard when it comes to thumbnail dimensions / aspect ratio, available metadata, etc. In the case of the iPlayer these happen to provide nice square icons, and they are all the same size. But that is definitely not the case with all add-ons. They could be 16:9 thumbnails, or posters, or banners, or anything really. I know other skins probably provide more views in this case, but they also use either "one-size fits all" kind of viewtypes, or show all viewtypes coded into the skin, regardless of whether they fit the content format being listed. One of the key principles in reFocus is not doing that. I do have some ideas for a thumbnails based view specifically for "content-less" add-ons, but that is going to have to wait till after Gotham. That said though, it is of course a bug that the thumbnails button is showing when it's not actually available. (2014-04-18, 20:47)Slurrrp Wrote: I cant find it in gotham? They removed it? Someone can point me where to look?Press left or up, depending on the viewtype you are in, then it's in the menu that opens.

Is it possible to achieve that with a visible expression?In my latest git push, the info provided is now the same format as it is for the "recently added episodes" node. The thumbnails are set to episodes though. Most of the thumbnails are all set through variables based on the content type. I'd like that universal / free of workarounds. But if you want to change it, look into the thumb_Portrait variable in variables.xml. Note that what you change there may have an impact on other parts.

But do you guys actually have the icons seeing through (so are they both visible at the same time?) Because I can't seem to reproduce this. In any case the intended behaviour is that the mute icon takes precedence over the weather icon, thus replacing it while it is active. Changes pushed to git:
