Just a quick question about the image grid options... do these save per platform, so that you can have a shorter grid for horizontal boxes (like SNES) and taller for something like NES?

The new image grid options are a very nice improvement for non-BigBox users. This is most welcome. It took a moment to figure out where the options were at, but this is a great way to set things up, and I think it opens up all kinds of possibilities (maybe a right-click media edit menu with a similar pop-up options box... just thinking out loud). I notice that initially the grid images were having a lot of pop-in loading right after the beta update, but after making changes in the grid options that triggered a full load (with the little progress bar at the top) that performance seems to be very good. Thanks for this improvement! LB users appreciate this.

The over-sensitive thing happens when the column you are re-sizing is close to the edge of the screen... if you scroll it to the middle the warp speed re-sizing doesn't happen.

Ok... thanks. So, if you set the default you can still change them individually?

It would basically be like the CD cover in most music players (foobar, etc) where the CD cover image is re-sizable and the music track info/metadata is next to it. That's how I was thinking anyway... just a thought.

This is probably just me not understanding exactly what this means, but haven't the viewing options always shown the same category for each platform? *edit* Also... I'm looking at the list mode, and I haven't used it in a long time, but it seems a lot more usable. Question... are there plans to add an optional, resizable "box image" column to the list mode? I know it's supposed to be mostly for information sorting, but an image might make it a lot more appealing to some people.

I definitely like that you can quit from the system tray now.

I think it plays... but not positive.

I had reported a game not updating to beaten/completed (whatever it's supposed to be when you finish the game the first time). Not sure if it's a retro problem or LB... I don't think I ever got any feedback on that. Anyway, could be related if stats aren't tracking correctly.

What's new in 13.24 beta 1?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Everybody wins.

Thanks, I had a feeling it was going to be an edit the theme thing. Haven't had a chance to test yet, but thanks for the tip. It seems like the best solution would be to have the carousel hide if there is only one image. I can't imaging anyone would want the two redundant images, but who knows.

Thanks for the reply. If I uncheck all four, it also removes the large image (as shown above). It becomes a blank frame. I'm wanting to have the large picture with no carousel (smaller) beneath.

Yeah... it should be the same thing for anyone using the default theme and looking at the platform details.

I have one image for each platform (a console image)... what this causes is that you see the image (large) and then repeated (small) in the image carousel beneath it. Is there a way to remove the carousel from the platform details section so that you don't have the two redundant images (would also save space)? This is with the default theme. Thanks for the help.

I'm not sure if this would be an issue with Retro Acheivements or the progress feature in LB, but I finished a game since the progress features were recently added and it didn't change the "active" badge to "beaten" or "completed". Are there any known issues that would cause this? I haven't messed with the RA prior to the progress features being added.

Thanks... I think it must have been someone else having this issue.

Ah... got it. Thank you.

Ok, thanks... that sounds good. Where is that option, exactly... I can't seem to find it?

I noticed that when you set "arrange by" as "progress" it now moves your active game group to the bottom (you can reverse the order but then it also reverses the alphabetical sub-order). I thought the behavior in a previous beta with the active games group at the top made more sense. I guess this might be because of the new progress system?

This has happened to me, occasionally, and other people reported it as well, but they don't know what causes it.

You are right. lol. Thanks for letting me know.

This is a great, common sense improvement. Maybe not the flashiest update ever, but this is a great time saver. It was tedious to re-check these boxes each time you imported something. So, thanks for this update... I really like to see these practical improvements.

Yes... that's exactly what I was looking for... I didn't think to look there, was looking in the update options, but thanks for pointing it out.

I've just updated to the latest beta, but I'm not seeing this one in the manage themes section. Is there anything else I need to do?
