    ScreenNames Plugin

    V1.06
    25/08/2024


    Lululla has been pestering me again.

    So I have written a new plugin. :hushed face: It probably isn't even what he was asking for. :spit:

    But its a useful tool for skinners and for users to identify particular screens without having to keep checking debug logs.




    This plugins purpose is as debug tool. It isn't meant to be turned on all the time. Its main use is for skinners or for users who want to find the name of screen so they can amend it to their personal taste.

    It was a 1 evening quick project. Designed for a sole pupose. It isn't meant to be anything special, it isn't going to be perfect. It isn't getting a lot of my attention.

    Unless it crashes (like your previous bug you mentioned), then it is what it is.

    Dear boss

    I would like happy to inform you that v7.5 top picker working very well sky Q darkblue and sky Q purple skin new image openbh5.4 image , as I said before and now again I say .you are a our real super star and you are a genius

    Thank you 🙏

    Unfortunately, ScreenNames doesn't work well, when entering any plugin it's ok, but when going back the graphics disappear and after a while we have a blue screen


    yep it no longer works in openatv 7.4
    I tried fixing it last week, but its proving a little difficult.
    Its going to need a bit of rewrite.

    I use it myself so it will get fixed eventually

    yes a lot of members used it to report problems but like everything else screen names have changed if you know what i mean not plugin but openatv from 7.4

    Is it possible to add support for the screen name in the skin as well?


    Currently the plugin offer screen names for the enigma2 but is it possible to add the corresponding screen names from the current skin.xml or the line number.


    The point is, I have a screen called x on my skin and I can not locate it in my skin.xml

    Can you turn on the plugin and send me a screen shot of what you are talking about.
    No I cannot get files or line numbers. This screen name is got from an existing parameter that exists in enigma screens.


    The only screens it doesn't show are:


    Unhandledkey

    Infobar

    RdsInfoDisplay

    ScreenNamesAutoScreen.

    As I understand based on my limited knowledge, we have to sources of screen names


    1. Names of Enigma

    2. Names of skin


    Both should be matched or same in order to display skin screen.


    In my attached screen, your plugin give me the name of Enigma screen and my skin display it, but the problem this is not the correct screen in my skin,


    I made deep search for all screens in my skin to reach to this screen without success, so I guess it displayed as alternative option,


    So I was wondering, is it possible to list both options together


    Enigma names and skin screen as well, so you can simply search for the actual screen name in skin.xml file.....


    Regards


    Well you have all the information you need. Its primary name is SoftcamSetup.
    You don't seem to have that, so its defaulted to the fallback 'Setup' screen.

    If you want to style SoftcamSetup differently.
    Create a new screen callled "SoftcamSetup", copy all the code from "Setup" and amend it how you like.

    I already have screen with this name and displayed correctly over 10 images except this one,


    Anyway, appreciate your support, it was just idea coming to my mind,


    Hope in the next update to add the ability to enable/disable the plugin function without the needs to restart,


    Currently it disabled without restart but hope to run it as well without restart


    Regards

    this project has now been moved into my new KiddaC Skin E2sentials plugin.
    This post and individual plugin will soon be deleted.

    KiddaC Skin E2sentials - Official Release.
    V 1.07 - 24/02/2026

    Welcome to my new combined Skin E2sentials plugin.

    This plugin is designed to bring together several of my smaller, standalone plugins into one simple and user-friendly interface.

    With E2sentials, there's no longer any need to manually edit files or set up cron timers—everything is managed directly through the plugin.

    As part of this transition, the individual plugins will soon be removed from GitHub and feeds, making this the go-to…
