Hi , in includes.xml the visualisation are from position 253 . Here you can play with the dimensions - <width></width>
<height></height> https://github.com/idorel77/skin.CarPc-Carbon/blob/master/xml/Includes.xml
And if you want to the visualisation back to the all buttons you can move the line 34 <include>Visualisation</include> from home.xml before the line 29 (video).

I will try to make a mask but i don't know if will work.

RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - mbrown4ayl - 2018-08-25
Hello Idorel77,
I'm trying to execute openAuto through an "action button" with CarPC-Carbon. It is running on a Raspberry 3 B. I installed Raspbian, then OpenAuto, then Kodi and finally the CarPc-Carbon. In terminal I type /home/pi/openauto/bin/autoapp and the program will launch fine. However, I want to be able to launch it via the "Navigation" button in CarPC-Carbon. How does one go about this? Please help! Thanks!
RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - idorel77 - 2018-08-26
Hi , you have to make a script inside the skin/script/your_file_name.py , like here: https://github.com/idorel77/skin.CarPC-touch_carbon/tree/master/scripts
inside your script will be something like this:
#######
import os
import xbmc
os.system("your terminal command");
#########
And your action command will be:
RunScript("special://skin/scripts/your_file_name.py")
Have fun!

Could you add a repeat button? (or tell me how can I mod it?)
Thank you!

Please be kind I am rather new to raspberry pi and Kodi. As you had suggested I went searching for the "script" folder and I could not find it in the "skin.CarPC-Carbon" . However i did find a folder named that in your "skin.CarPc-touch-carbon" file. So I did try to install that but it wont install and says "The dependency on xbmc.gui version 5.3.0 could not be satisfied". So that add-on will not work for whatever reason. I am running Raspbian Stretch with Kodi 17.6. I have even installed Raspbian Jessie with Kodi 17.3 and still no luck with being able to install "skin.CarPc-touch-carbon". What am I doing wrong? I have to be missing something. Or is there another way to launch a program (example OpenAuto) from an "action button" in Kodi with Carpc-Carbon? Please help! I am really struggling with this one! Thanks!!!

Download as zip file , in kodi install addon as zip file.
Try to look in this folder after installed addon:~/.kodi/userdata/
and enable - Show hidden files and directories
However I am not seeing a "scripts" folder. This is what I'm seeing under "/home/pi/.kodi/userdata" folders- addon_data, Database, keymaps, library, peripherals_data, playlists, Thumbnails. Also there are 5 additional files - favourites.xml, guisettings.xml, profiles.xml, RssFeeds.xml, sources.xml. That is all I see. I have additionally went into all of the previously mention folders and I still do not see a folder named "scripts".
This is what I have tried....I tried to create a "new folder" and named it "scripts" inside that folder I created a file named "androidauto.py" .
The androidauto.py code reads as follows
###############
import os
import sys
os.system ("/home/pi/openauto/bin/autoapp");
#########################
When it is ran in Thonny it works perfect and launches OpenAuto program fine.
But when I go into Kodi and which has a navigation "action button" and has the following command ... RunScript("special://skin/scripts/androidauto.py")..... nothing happens.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks !!!

is not working because the script and action command have not the same path.
You have to find the path where is installed the skin , look for the folder skin.CarPc-Carbon , inside is the scripts folder.
Or you can try to change the path of the action command .. RunScript("special://path to your file /androidauto.py")

Hi, is there any trick to switch between this skin to default raspbian desktop and vice-versa?

Hello,
I would like to see if there is a way of getting contact with yourself directly over the CarPC system.
Forums are a little long winded and it would be nice to discuss a few things beyond the current scope of the project.
Hopefully you can help me out.
