Is there Select View modifiable? - discokongo - 2025-04-15
When you list the movies, you can chose between Banner, List, Poster, Poster Card, Thumb, Thumb Card.
List views shows CC, IMDB-rating, and runtime, while none of the other does. Enjoy poster, but a little lackluster in info, while List have info but lacks in good looks.
It feels like it shouldn't be a big difficulty to get those to the one of the others, since the function for fetching that info is already in place with the List view. But I can't manage to find anyone who've managed to edit the View that way, and at the same time it feels like CSS isn't enough(?), so I might be wrong? The UI is more hardcoded than one might believe?

I believe those are hard coded. CSS wouldn't be able to add new information. Only remove/hide existing information by hiding the "element" that info belongs in.

And plugins doesn't really affect that part?
I have 17 plugins, but none is graphical other than skin manager which just edits css basically, it seems.
Trying to figure out how hard-hard coded it is.
Like video, metadata, and data transfer between JF and external api:s = somewhat easy, and prepared for (if you know what you're doing). Layout (other than CSS) is basically rewriting the app at the core.
Or is it more about uninterest among the capable?
(don't expect a yes or now answer hehe, I'm just speculating loudly)

As with a lot of open source projects, there has to be an intersection of "time/energy", "knows how to fix it", "there aren't other more pressing bugs or interesting features to work on".
