FileBrowser plugin dimensions in Simple Ten Eighty skin

[Mickkie]

I don't know if this can be dealt with at the theme level, or at the plugin itself. The FileBrowser window is really small, less than quarter of the screen's real estate. Consequently, the file names are only partially visible in the window and therefore the plugin is pretty much unusable.

I've looked at /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/Filebrowser/plugin.pyc and can see some "size=" directives in there, but not sure if I can change them without breaking anything (and it looks like the character encoding is wrong for my terminal):

dQdR@ZKdSdT@ZLdUdV@ZMdWdX@ZNdYdZ@ZOd[d\@ZPd]d^@ZQd_d @ZRd!d"@ZSd#d$@ZTd%d&@ZUd'd(@ZVd)d
*@ZWd+d,@ZXd-d.@ZYd/d0@ZZd1d2@Z[dBS@)4ÚQFilebrowserScreena5F@@
        <screen position="110,83" size="530,430" title="">
            <widget name="list_left" position="0,0" size="265,380" scrollbarMode="showOnDemand" />
            <widget name="list_right" position="265,0" size="265,380" scrollbarMode="showOnDemand" 
/>

Is resizing the window easily done, or does it require dev work?

Which Filebrowser plugin are you using, the default movielist uses half the screen, and pressing menu allows you to configure lots of settings.

I've done a bodge job to make it full screen on 1080 skins. Didn't bother/couldn't work out how to do the settings menu though.
Just rename the existing plugin.pyc in case you need to restore it and copy the attached plugin.py over and restart GUI.

Sorry, getting all mixed up (again) with files and movies, it was a long day yesterday.

[Mickkie]

Thank you Willo3092 - just tried it out and it now expands to cover the whole screen. It makes it possible to see longer filenames and paths.

Where is this plugin from?

I guess from here

It's in the plugin extensions. I don't think it's been updated for 10 years.

I've tweaked it a bit to work better in OpenViX.

And skinned it for Simple 1080.

It's still showing as the mini screen, not full screen for me

I must have cocked up somehow. I downloaded the py first and then installed it from the feeds.
I'll try it later on, got a day of decorating to get through

Install plugin first. Send .py to the box. Send skin_plugins.xml to the box. Reboot.

[Willo3092]

I'd just changed plugin.py and not updated the skin.xml. Perfect now thanks for taking the time to update it
