Show a menu - and hide with a time-out timer if not pressed for 10 seconds.

even 10 years ago in GUI Editor updated by Ekaterina (head of support) 10 years ago 3
I have a Samsung "Smart TV", and have issues trying to control the "smart functionality".

The TV has a button called "SmartHUB". It is basically a menu that pops in to the screen from the bottom. with the "smart" functionallity the TV offers.

I wonder if I some how can "mimic" the same kind of functionality on the remote.
Displaying the pop-up menu when pressing the "SMartHUB" button.
If (for 10 seconds) if nothing else is pressed. The pop-up menu disapears down again.

Within those 10 seconds I need to change the IR Codes for my navigation keys (up, down, left, right, enter/OK) to control the Samsung TV and not the default device (a decoder). This is best done with an overlaying page I guess, but I am not sure how to best solve it, so please guide me.

Tried to do a mock-up here to illustrate but you should really see the Samsung SmartHUB behaviour to see what I mean. See this video:

at 1:12 + where the menu is viewed.

Please help me :)

Hi, you can use a popup and in the object properties set the lifetime to 10000. See updated project.

THANK YOU!!!! Just what I needed.

(is it also possible to animate the pop-up "in" and "out" of the screen?
