[06:40:09] | toeb (toeb!~tob@HSI-KBW-078-042-104-026.hsi3.kabel-badenwuerttemberg.de) has joined #mythtv-theming | |
[06:47:57] | toeb: | Is it possible to set a triggerevent in the popup menus to go one level up? E.g in the watch recordings screen pressing "M" and then select "Storage Options". Now in the storage options i would like to press "left" to get back to the previous popup menu. |
[06:48:29] | toeb: | Is there any theme doing this right now? |
[06:57:46] | justinh: | download em all, then grep ;-) |
[07:04:32] | toeb: | how would i do that for all at once? git clone git://github.com/MythTV-Themes/* does not work |
[07:05:37] | toeb: | in fact i know how to use the trigger events i simply don't know what command to us to go one level up... |
[07:05:41] | justinh: | I dunno. I've only used the theme chooser |
[07:06:04] | justinh: | as for trigger events, I was glad to see the back of the old arrow key behaviour |
[07:06:40] | justinh: | I'd be glad to see the back of trigger events too. A waste of effort IMHO |
[07:07:06] | toeb: | do you mean RIGHT key makes the menu popup? |
[07:07:08] | justinh: | toeb: you could try grepping the mythtv source code instead |
[07:07:38] | justinh: | I mean arrow keys doing any more than just moving a selection box left, right, up or down |
[07:07:59] | justinh: | anything else is contrary to common sense IMHO |
[07:08:26] | justinh: | if a remote doesn't have enough buttons to implement a 'back' button, it's the wrong remote |
[07:09:26] | toeb: | should the back button work to accomplish what i want? |
[07:09:45] | toeb: | the popup menu simply disapears if i press back |
[07:10:19] | justinh: | hmm. I'm not sure what mine does |
[07:11:12] | justinh: | pretty sure I can go back & forth in *those* menus though |
[07:11:26] | ** justinh fires up an nx session & goes to look ** | |
[07:11:33] | toeb: | I think it is just annoying if you are looking for a menu entry in one of the submenues and have to bring up the starting menu again and again |
[07:11:46] | toeb: | what theme are you using? |
[07:12:04] | justinh: | mine! |
[07:12:10] | justinh: | yeah mine doesn't let me go back |
[07:12:29] | toeb: | whats yours? |
[07:12:30] | justinh: | I press esc & it just drops the menu off screen |
[07:12:33] | justinh: | MINE |
[07:12:41] | justinh: | unreleased |
[07:12:46] | toeb: | :-) |
[07:12:51] | toeb: | mine too :-) |
[07:12:57] | justinh: | hahaha |
[07:13:07] | justinh: | the LEFT button takes me back. LOL |
[07:13:12] | justinh: | and I've not even used triggerevents |
[07:13:43] | justinh: | although I may inadvertently inherited them from a base file |
[07:14:47] | justinh: | FWIW MythCenter & MythCenter-wide seem to use triggerevent action="ESCAPE">LEFT |
[07:16:35] | justinh: | from looking at the code for triggerevent it seems to me that the "action" name just has to be a keybinding name |
[07:16:51] | justinh: | all it's doing is contextual remapping |
[07:17:29] | toeb: | nice mythcenter has the behavior i'm looking for. Thanks |
[07:17:45] | justinh: | I must be inheriting it from somewhere :-\ |
[07:17:47] | justinh: | gah |
[07:18:33] | justinh: | btw my theme is called 'Concept'. It started out as trying new ideas & 2 years later I'm still chipping away at it. It might see a release one day |
[07:19:22] | justinh: | I think of it as like the Mythbuntu theme with less of the bits I don't like ;-) |
[07:23:01] | justinh: | huh? seems I'm not inheriting triggerevent from anywhere if only mythcenter is using it |
[07:23:16] | justinh: | so the LEFT button taking you one level back must be the default |
[07:23:28] | justinh: | in a popup menu that makes more sense to me |
[07:23:57] | justinh: | if you're at the top level it takes you out, at lower than top it takes you one up |
[07:28:29] | toeb: | I think i ll never get my theme finished... there are yust to many windows and i even didn't start to theme any of the plugins :-/ |
[07:29:41] | justinh: | lots of screens can be the same layout though |
[07:29:49] | justinh: | in many ways mythui makes theming much simpler |
[07:29:58] | justinh: | inheritance can save a lot of time |
[07:30:27] | justinh: | don't even bother trying to theme mytharchive. That's easily the most frustrating to test |

[08:05:40] | toeb: | i don't use mytharchive so i pobably won't ever theme it... |
[08:59:36] | justinh: | toeb: so you're saying the default is that the left arrow dismisses the popup? I'll have to try a different theme. I can't find where mine might be inheriting from |
[09:03:30] | toeb: | I think so, but I'm not sure |
[09:12:07] | justinh: | mythcenter seems to operate the same way mine does w.r.t. popup navigation |
[09:12:35] | justinh: | as does Arclight |
[09:13:13] | justinh: | as does mythbuntu |
[09:13:29] | justinh: | ESC dismisses the popup |
[09:14:27] | justinh: | grepping the themes dir for "triggerevent" only mythcenter-wide has em |
[09:14:49] | justinh: | so... MEH. |
[09:36:44] | toeb: | aaaaaarg, i was looking at the wrong buttonlist... you are right the buttonlist for the popups still had LEFT set to be ESCAPE... |
[09:54:47] | justinh: | heh |
