Hi!
In the default apperance of VLC, "wxwindows", you can open e.g a folder of mp3's by going: file->open directory...

If you change to the skins2 that are delivered with the download, the feature isn't there!

I really like the apperance of brushed aluminium , so I decided to make my own skin with the function of open directories that I desire.

Now, I have been looking at the instructions for making skins, and of course I browsed the listed actions there at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/skins2-create.html#actions, well i can't find the for me very versatile action there. It should bee something like "dialogs.directory()"? Isn´t this feature available in skins2?

Btw, I'm a quite new user of the player, I find it Great!

You can indeed use dialogs.directory(), but only with the development version. The documentation is supposed to be automatically updated, i will try to see why it's not the case...

Thanks for your fast answer ipkiss.

I'll start working then,and return here when I get stuck!

Oh, sorry that was me above, not logged in that was...
