firing event via the navigation tab

[jryan1776]

is it possible to fire events off of the left/right/up/down keys when exiting a button? i know that you can disable/restrict the navigation on buttons, but can events be triggered?

i'd like to structure the skin kind of like sagetv so that a left key press will change the screen to the previous screen. i'd also like to make the buttons roll so when you press up from the top button, it takes you to the bottom button and vice versa.

thanks.

You could add a hidden button off of the left of the screen which is activated when you press 'left' from your menu. This button could have an OnEnter event attached so that you return to the menu as soon as this button is activated.

To loop round from top to bottom you can assign the up direction to select the button at the bottom using the navigation tab.

Nice workaround. I have wanted to make menus that operate more like my TiVo and that would probably do it. Good thinking and thank you.
