Nice work, this is a brilliant addition to LB/BB.

My only suggestion is for the window size to save after you have resized it or have an option to open in fullscreen as mine isn't fitting the screen properly.

Thanks!  

Hey, I was just happy to be able to parse the silly dat file, get the pretty colored icons in there, and the colored headers.  

 

Looks like you may have your monitors' Scale set to something other than 100%.  I had thought about having it open fullscreen, but then thought it may be a little too much.  When you open it, you initially see the top bar, don't you?  (Where it shows the min/max/close in the upper right.)  If so, for now you can just click Maximize.

I don't how to or if I can even save the window size for a plugin.  I might have to get creative.  I'll do some investigating.  Though it doesn't help with the window size, you can use Ctrl+mouse_middle_wheel-spin to change the font size.

Thanks for the accolades and suggestion.  I'll see if I can conjure something up.

You’ve done a great job mate.  That’s just me not picking as I like things to open in full screen lol.

I can’t remember exactly what my scale is at but it’s definitely over 100% so you’re probebly right on why it’s doing this.  I don’t see then top bar at all unless I resize the window, then it pops into the screen.  The screenshot is a full screen shot other than the left side and taskbar cropped on a little in it.

Getting it to remember window size, location, state (maximized) etc. requires some extra coding that I don't feel like messing with at the moment.

That said, and along with your quoted statement above, I present to you Baggio's Special Edition.  This will open the plugins' window fullscreen (instead of the originally designed 1300x900 [which looks great on my monitor, BTW. ]).  There are NO other changes to the plugin functionality.

 

Download and open the attached file.  With LaunchBox/BigBox not running, copy the file in the zip into this plugins folder.  Replacing/overwriting the existing "MAMEcommandDat.dll" file.

⟶  MAMEcommandDat (v1.0.0-FS).7z

(This is not the "complete" plugin as it doesn't include the other required support files).
