Hi Dorel,

I discovered your skin and I find it great.
I'm using Windows 10 and Sygic nav application.

I'm launching Sygic app using Navigation button, but the application starts behind Kodi. With a bluetooth keyboard I can go to Sygic by pressing ALT/TAB keys, but in the car I won't have the keyboard Smile

.
Is there a way to make Sygic start in front of Kodi and not behind?
Or move from Kodi to Sygic without closing Kodi?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,
i don't know how to start Sygic in front , should be some settings on windows.
Try to use windowed kodi from settings instead fullscreen....

You can add or edit 1 button and on action add this: Minimize or <onclick>Minimize</onclick> if you edit xml file.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.

Is it possible to put an action on a button to do an ALT/TAB? Do you know how?

and what will be the difference?

Better you should use a arduino micro and programming to send alt+tab key : https://youtu.be/Oejz4rS-nzQ

The difference is I can launch Sygic by pressing "Navigation" button and then press a second button (with ALT/TAB action) which will bring Sygic in front.

If it is possible to add an ALT/TAB action to a button it is easier for me.

I feel utterly dumb, but I can't get the visualization to work on my android devices. Both are stock, unrooted. A nexus 5 with android 6.0.1, and a Nvidia Shield K1 with android 7.0. I installed the skin no problem. But with the visualization it fails.. "add-ons - install via zipfile" and then it fails to install.

Visualisations are installed by default on android but is disabled... you have to enable.
Go - addons - my addons - look and feel - visualisation - spectrum - enable

Kodi, the way it works on the Pi currently (and always had), cannot be minimized or put on window mode. If you try to launch another program, it will open, but it will stay on background with Kodi on top. You have to close Kodi to access the other program.
