Favourite naming in skin settings - StefanK - 2013-06-24
Hi Ronie
Before the final releases of Frodo and T! 5 I experienced some problems with previous namings of submenu favourites hanging on to the submenu (while in skin settings).
See this thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=146225
The problem hasn't disappeared with the upgrades to stable versions. So when I go to skin settings and look at the submenu favourites they are named:
"favourite 1 - youtube"
"favourite 2 - ..."
And I cannot change this - neither by changing the favourite for each button nor by unticking it.
I have uninstalled T!, replaced guisettings and tried different other things, but not the right one, obviously.
One solution would be to reset my master profile, but is that possible? I mean creating a new user profile, and subsequently making this my new master profile?

i'm gonna need a Debug Log of you trying to change a favourite.
when doing this, the top item in the favourites selection list should be 'None (clear current settings)"
also which version of T! are you using?
(check settings > system info for the version number)

Debug log here, lots of information, hope you can find the right lines... http://pastebin.com/VuiPaZRf
Transparency! v5.0.9

no errors in the log and you seem to be taking all the right steps.
i have no idea why it wouldn't work for you.
the only relevant file in your profile is guisettings.xml
as that's where the skin stores all it's settings.
RE: Favourite naming in skin settings - StefanK - 2013-06-27
Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing - I have posted a screenshot
"[image: http://www.flickr.com/photos/88097663@N02/9154895406/]"
It shows how the previously (during Eden and T! v.4) entered name of a favourite button now is integrated with the favourite text - it doesn't change with language settings either.
I replaced guisettings.xml with that from another machine, but while the skin settings changed accordingly, the error remained...

ah, a picture says more than a thousand words :-)
that's indeed a bug in the skin right there.
i'll add it to the list of things to fix for the next release.
cheers mate!
RE: Favourite naming in skin settings - StefanK - 2013-06-28
Sounds great - I'll be waiting for that release!
Meanwhile - why on earth doesn't the bug disappear when I uninstall+reinstall T!?
And how about just copying a /userdata/addon/transparency folder from a machine without the bug?
Maybe because it is a bug
And now - time for vacation 
RE: Favourite naming in skin settings - ronie - 2013-06-29
