@slawomir , I apologize, I do not understand what your issue is.  You are saying that you do not get a list of different view types? What version of Amber are you using? Kodi Leia or Matrix? In order to get the latest functionality from Amber, I suggest that you install the Amber repo.  There is one for Leia (https://github.com/bartolomesoriano/repo.amber/blob/master/repository.amber/repository.amber-1.0.1.zip) and one for Matrix (https://github.com/bartolomesoriano/repo.amber.matrix/blob/master/repository.amber.matrix/repository.amber.matrix-1.0.2.zip).  Update Amber from there.

Please provide me additional information on the issue you are having, so I know better how to help.  Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

@slawomir , thanks for the additional information.  Unfortunately, I do not know what you mean by "bookmarks".  Can you please post screenshots that show what you are seeing? Thanks.

@slawomir , thanks for the clarification.  You cannot change the view type on the favorites window.  This is not a skin issue, this is just how Kodi works.

@slawomir , I do not know the technical reasons why this not possible for Favourites.  Perhaps @ronie can shed some light?

RE: bookmarks - ronie - 2020-12-09

view types can only be added to (media) windows. since favourites is a dialog and not a window, it's not possible there.

in the past there's been some discussion on turning favourites from a dialog into a window, but there wasn't too much interest from skinners...
mainly because there's no metadata available for favourites, as you only have a label and a thumb.
with this limited amount of info available, it isn't really possible to create some interesting views.


RE: bookmarks - slawomir - 2020-12-09

hi ronie, thank u for your explanation - now i know more  how it works.so ,its not the matter of kodi as bart says but the mater of skin as u talk about skinners...the conclusion is that skinmaker can not add it as the kodi does not allow it , am i right?  if this - what i and many other users would like to have=enjoy it- is technically possible for kodi or skinmaker/s , i dont see a reason to adjust it at last. this way u make kodi more interesting and more pleasant to use it, don't u think so too?
