Hi Zerach,
I'm actually being a little bit tricky with my skin for this plugin, the plugin doesn't appear on the main screen normally, I've just set the skin to the following...
Code:
<SKIN>
<APPCONFIG>
<WIDTH>848</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>480</HEIGHT>
</APPCONFIG>
<CLIMATE>
<X>208</X>
<Y>196</Y>
<WIDTH>450</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>89</HEIGHT>
<LABELS>...
So when you click the menu link to "CLIMATE" the control appears in the center of the screen. One thing I did find frustrating is that you can't use transparency with your skin background, which would be totally awesome, because then I could make the plugin appear like this over anything.
Just as an extra note, if you have a plugin take up only part of the screen such as this then as soon as you click on any of the menu items (for example if you were to click the Left arrow next to my plugin) then the plugin disappears and you are back to using the centrafuse menu. It is quite seamless and works very well, although it would be cool to have it appear on the main screen all of the time as well...
I'm nearly finished with an electric windows control plugin which also uses phidgets so I should have that up in the next couple of weeks. I'll have to include a video so you can see it in action as well
