Clarification: Depreciated Controls - kzr1y2 - 2008-04-28
Hi All,
Not sure what is meant by 'Depreciated Controls'; does it mean that these controls are no longer supported or will be decomissioned? If so, which control superceeds them - i.e. "use this instead of..."
Reference
Buttonscrollers
used for multiple buttons in a scrollable list
List Control
used for lists of items
Thumbnail Panel
used to show a panel of thumbnails
Recently Added Media Control
used to display the last few items added to the video database

ButtonScrollers -> Use a list with static content.
ListControl/Thumbnail Panel -> Use any container control.
RAM Control -> No replacement (it was just a thumbpanel that was auto-filled, and the code for it is long gone.) The "Recently Added ..." items in the library handle it anyway.
And yes, all the above are completely unsupported and WILL be decommissioned.

Hi Jonathan,
Appreciate the clarification; the CEOMR skin uses some of these controls.
I'm going to take the next few weeks to clean up the skin and also fix some of the behaviors. I'll ping Jezz_X once I have something that works at all resolutions as I have no means to update the SVN directly ... haven't earned my stripes yet
