Skin.arctic.horizon: [Feature] Custom Viewtype for files

If the add-on is declaring content correctly, this isn't needed.

There isn't in addon, are folders with strm files from an archive path.

This isn't where you should be browsing library content. Scan it into your library and access it via standard library views.

That's not the problem, the issue is if you want navigate on the files from an Archive shortcut for example don't showed the names in display.

Have you installed the Archive Support add-on?

yep

Ah, yeah maybe a fallback list view would be useful in these circumstances.

I've never understood why in files view Kodi sets the content type to what the source would be in the library rather than just setting it to files.

I'll have an update shortly.

Thanks @jurialmunkey!

Okay should be fixed in v0.1.38
List view should be used by default for Files mode in library (regardless of content type). There is an option in the side menu (2x left) to switch the view back to the standard view for the content type

@taoxtrece - Please test and confirm that you can use the list view (you might need to change the view from the menu depending on whether Kodi has registered a default view for that section yet).

Side menu??

Side menu??

It's the options menu from the options button. In list view there is no options button, so you need to access it by pressing left from the scrollbar -- I realised when I added this files list view feature that the menu was missing from the list view (because no options button), so it has now been added to make it possible to access these options.

Works great! very usefull for addon list too

Excellent. Thanks for testing 😄
