Silly question about event manager

Postby Chuck on Fri Jul 02, 2004 1:42 am

How in the world do I edit the names of new events that I add in the event manager? I have been adding them and then modifying the XML file by hand. Theres got to be another way!!??!?!?

This program ROCKS!!!!!!! Editing skins is pretty easy to learn, its the creative artwork that is the hard part.

Thanks

When the new event is highlighted, you should be able to click on it once & it'll allow you to change it (much like you can with your Windows desktop icons).

And no question is silly when it comes to HTPC. :D

Just slowly double-click on the name, then you should be able to overwrite it.

Edit: Wow, I probably posted just 2 seconds later than Tracie.

Editing skins is pretty easy to learn, its the creative artwork that is the hard part.

For me the art is easy and the organizing of skins is hard.

hit f2 goto the events tab
here you'll see the events tree under the SKIN +
you can create, rename, or change events here

To create a custom event just add the event and name it what you want in the left pane then you can set the command for this event in the right pane.
