Shortcut assistance please
#1
Hi all,

I want to make two keyboard shortcuts by key mapping that will take me to the Movies and TV Shows menu items in Estuary (Kodi 18.6)
EG: Movies:

I’ve installed Keymap Editor but I’m unable to find this Action. I can open the Moves/TV Shows library, but I don’t want that. I just want to select the Menu Item.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

TIA

Greg

Do you mean that you just want to highlight the menu item, but not enter it? So you still remain on that home screen shown in your image?

Yes, exactly.

My educated guess would be that Control.SetFocus(id,position[,absolute]) built-in https://kodi.wiki/view/Keymap might be what you are looking for.
You would need to figure out what the id of the "menu" is, for estuary it should be 9000
So "Movies" would be  Control.SetFocus(9000,0)
I have not tried this.

Tried Control.SetFocus(9000,0) and that seems to be "TV Shows".  Is there a list of the ID's and Positions so I can see what "movies" might be?

EDIT: Seems like I need to have Control.SetFocus(9000,0,absolute) .  Thank you.
