The only problem is how to detect that something is new ? If it's considered new until you have entered the menu once there is a risk the user has a hard time finding apps after he has installed the first app since the menu then will disappear. I suppose you might consider an application new until you have scrolled so it has been selected once in the menu, that would leave the menu enabled until you have scrolled through all apps. Of course, that might instead cause questions asking how to get rid of the "new apps" indication since all users might not realize they need to scroll through all apps. I agree with pippin that "My Apps/App Gallery" would be best, it makes the applications as noticeable as the current solution but without cluttering the home menu. Combined with the "new apps" indication that would make sure no one misses them. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67740 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
