i had some spare time so i created this
Its still in early stage but so far it is working as i planned
Its only working for windows. But it can be easily ported to mono for linux and mac

https://code.google.com/p/xbmc-skin-editor-net/

you have a image previewer

you can see the includes and button can be selected from the property grid depending on what is available in the skin directory


you are also able to control xbmc from the application to test the window from a simple click

I also added the possibility off adding a skin it is creating the addon.xml and its also creating every window with the basic <window id="theid"></window> in the file

nice work, but perhaps better suited to skin development forum section.
will test it.

[tiben20]

i agree i will move it to skin development

had to copy App.Config to Xbmc Subfolder to make it compile.
it also crashes when loading Nox (does it support other folders than 720p?)

hold on i made it to be able to load different resolution ill verify what is the problem and fix it

Ok i fixed the the resolution change i get the defaultresolution or the <res folder="" in addon.xml to see which folder to load

another small thing: your username is hardcoded in frmOpenSkin.vb (leads to an exception here at some point)

ill upload a build when i am done with fixing open skin

@phil65 you want access to the svn if you find some bug it might be faster to just fix them if your already use to vb.net

I can't get it to control XBMC running on the same PC and on my networked one it just reloads the home screen.
