Is it possible to change the behavior of the home screen so rather than moving left and right to choose the next menu option we can move up and down?
I have tried about a Year or so ago … And have also spoken with another another Theme creator who was attempting the same thing.
No Success
Technical: the rv_home.xml controls the HUB/SMP Home Screen.
looking inside the Legacy Theme …
it contains Home Screeen XML code for Gen1 Devices (which are Up’n’Down Scrolling)
home.xml & villa_home.xml
Now, if you compare all 3 xml’s… rv_home.xml / home.xml / villa_home.xml
There are different labels,tags,widgets,references etc etc between all 3
I tried all different combinations of code … but suffered crash after crash of my Live Hub
