The theme only configures the style. I'm using MythCenter-wide,
nevertheless the menu structure is configured by
themes/classic/mainmenu.xml<br>
<br>
Actually I also do not understand how the two parts are working
together.<br>
I would expect the the theme somehow references the classic
structure, but I could not find that.<br>
<br>
Maybe it works the same way for TintedGlass.<br></div></blockquote></div><br><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra">I dunno. I made the change to the mainmenu.xml and nothing showed up in TintedGlass.<br></div></div>
<br></blockquote></div><br>I think that depending on how you have the frontend configured, it may
be using a different layout that classic. You might try making the
change in the other mainmenu.xml files in:<br><br>/usr/share/mythtv/themes/DVR/mainmenu.xml<br>/usr/share/mythtv/themes/Slave/mainmenu.xml<br>/usr/share/mythtv/themes/classic/mainmenu.xml<br>/usr/share/mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/mainmenu.xml<br>/usr/share/mythtv/themes/mediacentermenu/mainmenu.xml<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Bill<br></div></div>
