Remote-control button mapped to trigger activatewindow(home) - are there parameters? - andrewilley - 2018-12-31

I've set up a gen.xml file to change my remote control's "Guide" button (which I don't use) to act as a Home function, using the mapping: <keyboard><key id="50">activatewindow(home)</key></keyboard>

Could someone let me know what parameter I should use to force the cursor back to the top when the main homescreen is displayed - i.e. cursor highlit on Movies in the left column - as currently the highlit  item stays as whatever category item I was last looking at.

Using Kodi 18 RC, with Estuary skin. Thanks.

Andre

I'm not sure you can do this as Estuary uses a "fixedlist" control.   My thought was to use ReplaceWindowAndFocus(home,9000,1) but it didn't work.
