can not be controlled through a theme, it would require patching the
plugins themselves. I have a friend who start to work on this once, but
gave up. Oh what I would give to be a QT developer :)

Hopefully
this is on the Myth to-do list.

I am aware of, and use gesture control to navigate the menus, but it does
not work to, for example, exit mythmusic. In fact, to my knowledge, there
is no mouse support in myhmusic whatsoever, so with mythvideo, etc.<br
/><br />The menu system itself supports the mouse/gestures, but you're on
your own once you are in a plugin.<br /><br />From my understanding, this
can not be controlled through a theme, it would require patching the
plugins themselves. I have a friend who start to work on this once, but
gave up. Oh what I would give to be a QT developer :)<br /><br />Hopefully
this is on the Myth to-do list.<br /><br /><br />&gt; On 1/4/07, Jason
