Help about buttons

Hi, hope you can help me with these questions
Question 1 - I'm trying to make two buttons that go to different functions. Here are the buttons

PHP Code:
<control type="button" id="160">
                        <
description>Manual</description>
                        <
label>Manual</label>
                        <include>
DefInfoButtons</include>
                        <
onclick condition="Control.IsVisible(50)">SendClick(1128,5)</onclick>
                        <
onclick>SetProperty(content,1)</onclick>
                        <
onclick>SetFocus(9501)</onclick>        
                        <
visible>!IsEmpty(ListItem.Studio)</visible>
                    </
control>
                    

                    <
control type="button" id="53">
                        <
description>Ano</description>
                        <
label>Ano</label>
                        <include>
DefInfoButtons</include>
                        <
onclick condition="Control.IsVisible(50)">SendClick(1128,5)</onclick>
                        <
onclick>SetProperty(content,2)</onclick>
                        <
onclick>SetFocus(9501)</onclick>        
                        <
visible>!IsEmpty(ListItem.Year)</visible>            
                    </
control

And the content

PHP Code:
<control type="label" id="1">
                    <
visible>Control.IsVisible(50) | [!IsEmpty(Window.Property(content)) + !Container(9501).IsUpdating]</visible>
                    <
left>540</left>
                    <
right>SidePad</right>
                    <
top>260</top>
                    <
description>Header Label</description>
                    <
textcolor>Dark2</textcolor>
                    <
font>Small</font>
                    <
label>$INFO[ListItem.Studio]</label>
                    <include>
Animation.DelayFadeIn</include>
                </
control>
                
        <
control type="label" id="2">
                    <
visible>Control.IsVisible(50) | [!IsEmpty(Window.Property(content)) + !Container(9501).IsUpdating]</visible>
                    <
left>540</left>
                    <
right>SidePad</right>
                    <
top>260</top>
                    <
description>Header Label</description>
                    <
textcolor>Dark2</textcolor>
                    <
font>Small</font>
                    <
label>$INFO[ListItem.Year]</label>
                    <include>
Animation.DelayFadeIn</include>
                </
control

The problem is that, if I click on the button the content appears superimposed over the other. How can I link the different buttons to different content. I Already saw the wiki, but only found this - http://kodi.wiki/view/Built-in_functions..._to_python



Question 2 - I have a button that basically has to start the game that I'm showing the info on the Advanced launcher, How is that done?

Question 3 - if I want to use a addon to open an content (example(listItem.manual)), I have to make something like this, correct? this works for every addon? how can I know the parameters of an specific addon?

PHP Code:
<control type="button" id="random">
                        <
label>Manual<label>
                        <
onclick>XBMC.RunScript(script.name.of.the.addonmode=guimediatype=it's pdf but I don't know what to write heredbid=ListItem.manual)</onclick>
                  
                        <
desription>Manual</description>
                        <include>
DefInfoButtons</include>
                    </
control

Thanks in advance for the help
Best Regards

Taking Screenshots and Video Capture
To take a screenshot or make a video of what is being displayed, press & hold the "O" button on the controller or remote.

[Image: 18472606984_2c37a095d5.jpg]

If you make a video capture, it will record (as an mp4) both the video (as h.264) and audio (as 2 channel AAC) of what every is being displayed, including video being played on Kodi.

Also if you have ES File Explore installed (this may work with other file managers, but is untested) you can upload the screenshot or video directly to any location that ES has access to.
