Hi,

I have problem matching controlIds (clicked_control == self.go_down_control). How come in Kodi v19 I'm getting diffrent value of controlId?, in Kodi v18 everything is working fine.

xml:
<control type="button" id="9000">

                <description>Navigate down</description>

                <posx>910</posx>

                <posy>905</posy>

                <width>80</width>

                <height>80</height>

                <texturefocus colordiffuse="button_focus">buttons/down.png</texturefocus>

                <texturenofocus>buttons/down.png</texturenofocus>

                <onup>9001</onup>

                <ondown>-</ondown>

                <onleft>9002</onleft>

                <onright>9002</onright>

            </control>

python:
NAV_DOWN_BUTTON = 9000

python:
def onInit(self):

        self.go_down_control = self.getControl(NAV_DOWN_BUTTON)

python:
    def onClick(self, controlId):

        deb('onClick controlId: %s' % controlId )

        clicked_control = self.getControl(controlId)



        if clicked_control == self.go_down_control:

            deb('SkinPicker godown control')

            self.showNextSkin()

Result

no idea i'm afraid.. i always simply compare control id's. much easier imho.

python:


if controlId == NAV_DOWN_BUTTON:

The problem is that they should match but they don't. When pressing controlid 9000 it should return self.go_down_control.

I just realized the issue has to do with floating point division, I'm not sure how to convert all my division integers.

You can make Python2 division work like Python3 division by importing division from future.

https://docs.python.org/2/library/__future__.html

As a specific Kodi thing, you should require script.module.future to make sure it's available.

Alternatively, you can do integer division in Python3 (and Python2) by using // instead of /.  Here's a Stack Overflow thread that might help:
