Hi all, is there a way to hide all sliders system-wide on Remote 3 (both the seek/timeline and any on-screen volume sliders)? Use case: avoid accidental scrubbing, keep the UI clean, and rely on the hardware volume keys only. I’m aware I can remove Media Player tiles per activity and use Remote Control tiles, and I can remove the Now Playing widget on the home screen — but that’s tedious to maintain across multiple activities/rooms. Questions: 1. Is there a global toggle or theme/flag to hide all sliders across the UI? 2. If not, is this on the roadmap or available behind an experimental setting? 3. Any JSON/skin/workflow to enforce a “no-slider” default when creating new activities? Setup: Remote 3 (latest firmware), sources: LG webOS, Apple TV, Enigma2, Sonos. Helmut ---

No, there no way to do any of this and it’s also not planned. ---

Configuration possibility of slider is planned. We will see. ---

But only the hardware slider. This is about software slider. ---

Which software slider? I would not call a progress bar a slider. ---

Configuration options for the widget makes sense. Even more sense more widet types. But both more low priority I think.
