Settings | Interface | Skin |
From this page you can change the colours, fonts and themes of the active skins or install a new skin.
Look and feel
Skin
Settings level: | Basic |
Description: | Select the skin for the user interface. This will define the look and feel of the application. |
- See also: Skins
- See also: HOW-TO:Change Skins
Configure skin
Settings level: | Basic |
Description: | Select to change the skin specific settings. Which options are available for configuration depends on the features provided by the currently active skin. |
- See also: Estuary Skin Settings
Theme
Settings level: | Standard |
Description: | Change the theme associated with your skin. Not all skins come with alternative themes. The theme consists of icons, colours, fonts, images and other furniture. Many of these items are contained within the default theme.xbt file in Themes folder in the skins add-on folder. The xbt file needs to be unpacked, modified then repacked using the TextureTool. If a Colour theme is available, this will also be applied when changing themes as long as both the Theme and Colour files are named the same. |
- See also: Skinning
- See also: TextureTool
Colours
Settings level: | Standard |
Description: | Change the colours of your selected skin. Not all skins come with alternative colours. The colour of fonts and text can be changed without changing the Theme, but used in combination with Themes, you are able to create a new look and feel for your skin. Both the Colour and Theme files should be named the same. |
- See also: Colour Themes
Fonts
Settings level: | Standard |
Description: | Choose the fonts displayed in the user interface. The font sets are configured by your skin. Not all skins come with alternative fonts. Adding ttf font files to the skins Font folder will enable you to change the font used by the skin. |
- See also: Fonts
Zoom
Settings level: | Standard |
Description: | Resize the view of the user interface. Also works as an alternative to calibration for overscan issues, but only for the GUI and not video playback. Range is -30% to to +30% Before adjusting any calibration within Kodi, ensure your TV or Display Monitor has any overscan settings disabled. |
- See also: Calibration Settings
Stereoscopic 3D effect strength
Settings level: | Advanced |
Description: | Defines the strength of the stereoscopic 3D effect in the GUI. This is done by controlling the depth perception within the GUI, so the higher the value, the more the elements will pop out of the screen. Zero disables the stereoscopic 3D effect of the GUI. For a good visual experience, the value should be higher for small screens and lower for larger screens. Note: Not all skins support this feature. |
- See also: 3D
Show RSS news feeds
Settings level: | Basic |
Description: | Enables and Disables the scrolling RSS news ticker displayed on Kodi screens. |
