hard code image in skin - nero12 - 2017-08-09
Hi on holiday so playing around with confluence skin. learning how the skinning work. i try to do small changes like hardcode an image to a addonitem
<item>
<label>copied a url from favourite and it works great</label>
<onclick>RunAddon($INFO[Skin.String(HomeVideosButton3)])</onclick>
<icon>HOW CAN I HARDCODE ICON ?</icon>
<thumb>-</thumb>
<visible>(removd the "!" and it now appear at al time. great)</visible>
</item>
any help is appreciated.
thank you.
Idea is to hardcode all my custom features to skin and take backup of 720p. i dont like estuary skin, and confluence will not get any updates, so i might as well start skinning myself

If you put it in the media folder then just its name and extension.

If u did another said then u add the thumb nail but u will not see it in less you can see thumbnails for all other menu items.
If you just trying to add a image the read the skinning manaul and add a image control.

i dont understand your message,
but i found a work around
just create fake plugins and enable them
and only hardcode the url in xml. that did the trick. it is much more complicated approach but it works.
