I spotted an error with the Settings-->Home Window-->Number of main menu items...Thanks, will have to test tonight. I'm guessing you also updated to the latest Isengard nightly? Do you mind testing the text color customizer? mmm... I don't think I did update on this setup, from memory it's still RC2 (shall check) ps. also noticed that the keyboard when entering searches or custom font colours isn't being input. re: text colour - I have been having a play already [FACE WITH STUCK-OUT TONGUE AND WINKING EYE] happy to report all seems to be in order, everything is changing that I believe should be... without trying to be too negative, I've not discovered a text colour combination that works that well together on the home screen, I can only foresee it working really well if the focused font colour was inverted/negative from the unfocused font colour. Only colour that really works is default white... as always just my opinion and I wouldn't want to wish it on others, may be an idea to only change font colours for everything other than the Home Menu (keep as white). would also be nice to be able to have a reset colours to default option... unless you know what the default colour background/dialogue colour was it is difficult to bring back to default after you have tinkered (hope that makes sense) ie. as per disable colour customiser default been tinkering so much I've been daft enough to change my text colour and highlight colour to black and have to blindly find my way in the dark to reset doh!

Do you mind testing the text color customizer? No worries, constructive criticism is always welcome. I pretty much agree re: font colors. I don't think the preset colors work well for text, manually input lighter colors would look better IMO. I'll add a button to reset the colors to default and maybe allow customizing the main menu text color independent of the main text. Mimic 2.x for Isengard - stueeey - 2015-08-04 for what it's worth... seeing as your experimenting with colours etc... I always modify/increase the opacity of the focused home menu button 'listselect_fo.png' I just like that focused colour bright and bold... May be something to consider should you be wishing to offer more colour options & variants etc. RE: Mimic 2.x for Isengard - braz - 2015-08-04 I added a button to reset all colors to default. Tried a more opaque listselect_fo.png, but then text using the highlight color isn't very visible when focused. Decided to leave it as-is.

It is working fine here... this evening I updated to the latest 15.1 RC1 nightly... and the latest Git script.skinshortcuts. Pleased to report everything seems to be in order, no issues to report... but neither can I pinpoint what the issue was. [IMP] ps. thanks for the colour Reset option... this also is working nicely! Mimic 2.x for Isengard - stueeey - 2015-08-05 this isn't a request... I spotted that if I have the Top Menu activated I am able to choose between 3&5 menu items, only 5 are available though. fairly sure your not providing a 3 menu items option for the top menu, so just pointing out it could be confusing for some who may be expecting to activate 3 menus for the top RE: Mimic 2.x for Isengard - braz - 2015-08-05 (2015-08-05, 00:33)stueeey Wrote: this isn't a request...

The description says its for the default home layout, but I went ahead and disabled that button when the alternative home layouts are active. Should clarify things... RE: Mimic 2.x for Isengard - braz - 2015-08-05 Just added a new skin setting so you can customize just the menu text color if you want... ![]() RE: Mimic 2.x for Isengard - braz - 2015-08-05 (2015-08-03, 04:31)stueeey Wrote: for what it's worth as 'another user' with an opinion... I have to agree, I find the middle focus position very strange and unnatural behaviour, I would prefer to see the bottom 5menu work the same as the top 5menu even if it means you don't see what is coming. (just my opinion)Sorry guys, I changed the default 5-item main menu back to the way it was before, with the center item keeping the focus when there are more than 5 items. This is more consistent with the way the 3-item menu works (with fixed horizontal lists option). And it works much better with the submenu to me, since the submenu also keeps the center item focused. Here's the commit in case you want to reverse this on your setups. https://github.com/bryanbrazil/skin.mimic/commit/04b0a7c5d8443f38966aed86db1a811e13f97c4d RE: Mimic 2.x for Isengard - yioryos467 - 2015-08-05 Hi braz, Just a few things.... Added another 2 Widgets, total 10.... Added another 9 Custom Menus, total 15...... I have the following issues.... I can add the additional Widgets to the menus but when you press up button..... nothing comes up. Also menus come up but I cannot see the submenu (under Android), submenu appears under Windows.... What am I missing...... the files I modified are the following.... custom_1121_HomeMenuCustomizer.xml custom_1124_WidgetCustomizer.xml custom_1126_MenuOrderCustomizer.xml custom_1132_WidgetIconDialog.xml Includes_Menus.xml SkinSettings.xml Can you point me to the right direction.....
