Hi Stuart,
I'm not using a mouse or touchscreen. It's an ordinary notebook without
any remote. I just saw that by scrolling with the cursor keys I could
not determine
1) How long is list?
2) Is it the first/last element (so I can not scroll one way any more)
So it's mory a usability thing. But I understand that mythui will be the
right place to solve such things in a clean way. I'm just searching
mythtv to find some starting point - I eventually will write small
patches while learning C++. So should I leave out the gui within that
search? (Cause much thinks will be handeled by mythui.)
bye
Meik
