Purpose

  • Required:  No
  • Type of Change:  Feature

A new facade layout for displaying a list of items that resembles the iphone style coverflow as shown in the following video:

Coverflow can be selected like any other layout (list, icons, filmstrip etc.)

Description of Change

A new control has been added GuiCoverFlow (coverflow).  It not only provides a unique layout display, but it also enables the cover to be 'flipped' so that additonal information displays on the reverse of the cover by using F3 on the keyboard or the Show Info key on the remote (usually the yellow button on MCE Remotes)
