@MerlinArcade Try these two views but you'll have to try them on a vertical monitor they look like your pic
-
Well i got to go its very early in the morning here way pass my bedtime lol
-
@MerlinArcade Unless you have visualstudio it will be very difficult for you but if you do a mockup of the 2 views you want and give me a week i will try to create those 2 views for you hows that?
-
@MerlinArcade You would have to start from scratch and then strip everything out redo a new grid set it as you want then you would have to apply the elements to the grid co-ordinates that you want. You would also have to create a horizontal wheel, but you would still have your artwork and videos stretched out of proportion and not the way you are depicting in the screenshot.

@MerlinArcade Line 9 has nothing to do with borders this is line 9
mc:Ignorable="d"
Line 35 is this
<Grid Grid.Row="1">
-
@MerlinArcade You shouldn't see any errors unless you did something wrong here is screenshots of 2 views i just gave you
-
@MerlinArcade Here are the 2 Views with borders around them you notice the Grid Column And Grid Row References in the code above the elements paste them into your theme and overwrite the files make copies of the originals first.
-
@MerlinArcade read the above post there is no need to create new views just copy default theme or what ever theme you are working on and change to that in BigBox the views i mentioned are inside the Theme folder in the Views Folder.
-
@MerlinArcade By your options page you are also on the Default Theme, you should never change the Default Theme, instead you should make a copy of the default theme and paste it in the Theme Folder. Then you should open up BigBox/OptionsPage/ClickOnView and then click on Default to change to The Default Copy and work on that instead, always make a copy of any theme you want to change and then open that Theme in BigBox.

@MerlinArcade from your above screenshots your Game List View is set on Vertical Wheel 1 which is equal to WheelGamesView.xaml, and your Platform List View is on Platform Wheel 1 which is equal to PlatformWheel1FiltersView.xaml. The very first page you see when you open up BigBox is the one of the Platform Views you have then to click on one of the platforms ie:arcade nintendo etc in order to see the Game View. There are different views for both Platforms and Games. In your Options page you can change the views by clicking on Views then scrolling down to the Platform List View and clicking on it the same with the Game List View. The code works here is a screenshot of a view i just tried it on, note the white border around the Coverflow also remember for the different items you must change in the code their Column and or Row's reference.

@Jason Carr Just test drove the new beta, no problems thus far super snappy, i left it on attract mode Nes for the last 5 minutes background Video on as well as game videos, background music on as well as chrome running in the background no crashes working great on an Intel core 2 Duo E7300 @2.66 GHz running Windows 7 64bit. KUDOS love the new options.

Not at the moment as we would end up with a large black area above and below the background video's and artwork's, as this is a vertical theme for vertical monitors it is up to the user to source Vertical Videos and Artwork themselves at the moment, however i will be revisiting the theme in a few weeks and will try and see if i can do a workaround to sort this out, i may well at that time decide to create a completely new Vertical theme that will allow the user to use normal artwork and video instead i haven't decided yet as i am currently working on 2 new themes at the moment.
-
@ea4492 Yes i forgot there was no crystal system logo online not one i could find when i created my banners yonks ago i had to create one if that's any good and if not asking too much could you also do one for media centre from below oneThanking you in advance
-
@MerlinArcade You would have to tell it something like this before the element ie the coverflow etc
<Border Grid.Column="0" SnapsToDevicePixels="True" BorderBrush="White" BorderThickness="4" />
-
@ea4492 What can i say excellent work really enjoy these Platform Logo's

What your showing is Default Vertical theme and the PlatformWheel4FiltersView.xaml each element as you can see has its grid co-ordinates such as coverflow which is in Grid.Column="0". As @CriticalCid pointed out watch the video he linked to, I would also read the Documentation.pdf inside the Launchbox themes folder for descriptions of elements etc.
1 <coverFlow:FlowControl x:Name="FlowControl" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Grid.Column="0" CoverFactory="{Binding CoverFactory}" ImageType="Clear Logo" CurveAmount="0" CameraZPosition="2.85" VisibleCount="16" PageSize="6" Spacing="1.05" ItemZPosition="1.05" SelectedItemZPosition="2.0" />
(Line 22)2 <transitions:TransitionPresenter Grid.Column="1" TransitionSelector="{Binding DetailsTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding DetailsView}" Margin="0,0,0,0" />
(Line 46)3 <transitions:TransitionPresenter Grid.Column="1" TransitionSelector="{Binding ImageVideoTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding ImageVideoView}" IsContentVideo="true" Grid.Row="2" Margin="0,0,2,0" />
(Line 45)4 <transitions:TransitionPresenter Grid.Row="3" TransitionSelector="{Binding TopBoxesTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding TopBoxesView}" />
(This is where the Favourites show, Line 48)5 <transitions:TransitionPresenter Grid.Row="5" TransitionSelector="{Binding BottomBoxesTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding BottomBoxesView}" Margin="0,0,0,0" />
(This is where the Recent show, Line 49)Also the Whole background art is
<transitions:TransitionPresenter TransitionSelector="{Binding BackgroundTransitionSelector}" Content="{Binding BackgroundView}" Height="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualHeight}" Width="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualWidth}" IsContentVideo="true" />
<Grid Height="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualHeight}" Width="{Binding ElementName=Canvas, Path=ActualWidth}">
<Grid.Background>
<SolidColorBrush Color="Black" Opacity="{Binding BackgroundFade}" />
</Grid.Background>(Line 12 to 16)

@cheetahman91 The view your using doesn't use video you have to change the view, the easiest way is to set up a controller key or keyboard key for switching views see screenshot
To turn background video options-check use platform background videos, unchecking will allow the small videos, not all views have video see screenshot
To show BigBox where your platform videos are in Launchbox tools/manage platforms click on each platform and in the details tab show your video path see screenshot
