With the event mapper you can now match a parameter of a GUI Message and only execute the mapping if the message type and parameter match. One of the many things this lets us do is create new buttons in a skin and then have them blast ir codes or macros. Here's a quick example:
Place this code in your skins "myvideos.xml" to add a new button:
-
<control> <description>Blast IR</description> <type>button</type> <id>818181</id> <label>818181</label> </control>
Place this code in your "strings.xml" to add the label for the button:
-
<string> <id>818181</id> <value>Blast IR</value> </string>
Now, set up the event mapper to watch for "Clicked" events and match the "Sender Control ID" parameter to "818181". With this in place you will now have a fully programmable button in your skin. It can blast IR, send serial commands, launch external apps, etc ...
