Hi,
I tried installing piGridSkin. I took both folders "PiGridSkin" and
"JogglerSkin" from "jivelite-master\share\jive\applets" and moved them
into "/home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/applets" (had to use sudo as I don't
have write permissions in this folder).
Saved to SD -> Reboot

Jivelite doesn't offer a PiGridSkin. Now I have the "Grid Skin" two
times available with resolution 1024 x 600 (resolution of my 7''
Waveshare display). But there is no difference between them.

I only can use the Grid Skin with 1024 x 600 as this is the only one
where my touchscreen is calibrated properly. E.g. Joggler Skin has a
wrong resolution (too small) and touchscreen doesn't work properly. I
even tried "export JL_SCREEN_WIDTH=1024 and export JL_SCREEN_HEIGHT=600"
but this didn't make a difference.

So now I am stuck with this view:
"Folder menu" :
35184

35185

35186

"Albums" : (too small pictures, all albums are here, so not separated )
35187

But every folder (e.g. "Hörbuch", "Conni") has his own folder.jpg but it
isn't displayed.

So please if you have any idea what I can do to make this more a
"thumbnail" menu, I and my kids will be very happy to try it out!! :)
