How can you change the position of plugins in the Openpli 9.0 rc image from vertical to horizontal for Octagon Sf 8008 box

[WanWizard]

Afaik not. Unless some plugin exists I don't know about.

 

May I ask why? I hardly ever go into that screen, if at all? Only for initial configuration of some plugins, and for installation and removal.

Use the <> buttons in the plugin list to change the position../ but from horizontal to vertical is not possible (and not practical as there is only weird location available for the descriptions)

This works for openpli after adding this from fairbird's github

The only comment I have is that it will introduce hardcoded stuff that should be in the skin definition, things like colours, sizing and positioning.

 

Something we don't want in the enigma core code.

the good old PluginsPanel plugin, modded by me, it just demonstrates what can be done with 5k of code, shows plugins horizontally in 5x5 rows / columns, plugin icons can be of any size, they just get scaled to fit into frame, you can launch it from main menu just like vertical plugin browser,  converted to py3, tested only on PLi 8.3

Sounds like a candidate to adapt it to the standard plugins screen stuff... by adding the standard screen and the red/green button for removal and installment...  Now only 164 lines of code.

 

At least it could be nice when it stays a plugin that it replaces the application screen in the current menu and then had an option inside to still get to the standard plugin screen.

 

One thing needs a small change 'zeile' is still German

a small problem, if there are more than 25 plugins the icons don´t  scroll nor is second page loaded, the code is missing and I assume it is not trivial to add it, so I made a 7x7 panel, I think max. of 49 plugins will be sufficient for most people, I loaded the whole bunch of 49 plugins for testing and everything is fine

To have a proper scroll a eListbox have to be extended to support grid type orientation. Without that you cant get reliable scrolling

I improved the plugin a bit, remove and download plugins not implemented yet, just prepared for it, to be honest, I don´t know how to do it, the code is present in vertical plugin browser, I don´t know how to insert it

I see a lot of standard plugin pictures there without seeing which plugin it should be... That was exactly also the reason why on only doing it with picons was not really helpfull.

 

Install/Remove plugins could be done by opening a session (e.g. with callback) by importing the usual class for it within the plugin and then do the same call as in the standard plugin manager.

Exactly right. Should be done in eListBox and controlled from the skin, like DimitarCC did with the horizontal version. This python code is a dirty hack.

Plus for plug-ins there should still be a kind of text field and/or a icon/picture identifying the plugin is mandatory….. the example picture demonstrates a lot of default pictures which is not helpful to select a plugin.
