More about theme creation.
I am still stuck on creating themes... mabey this is even a feature request.
Can I define multiple buttons in one file? would be nice to build a set of buttons and define them all in one file. You could use this to manage themes better. Mabey even use a tree or folder type view in the button chooser dialog... ie select one folder to only show one group of buttons at a time.
I still cant get a button to show up in the button dialog... grr do I have to chmod images or bstyleconf files.. any idea what i am doing wrong?
As an adendum to daperl's post above... It would be really great to have Irreco show the status of devices that give feed back. I am working on writing a small routine to emulate Lirc but control my Marantz reciever. The perfect end to this scenario would be custom widgets on the screen like LED images that showed if equipment is on or off.... a volume slide bar that not only allowed you to set the volume, but showed when someone turned the dial on the Amp (Marantz and others send out serial status reports when things like inputs powerstates and vol levels change via front pannel). You mentioned earlier you would have to rewrite the button stuff... perhaps a object oriented list that custom objects could be inserted to would be the way to go...
There arn't you glad you asked for input???
thanks again for all your hard work... and any help you can give
