Probably be a while if this ever does become a selectable option. I would say a slim chance as well. In the meantime in order to remove it you would need to make a custom version of the Default theme. If you do this and the option ever does come to LB it will not affect the theme you edited as typically LB's built in options do not override coding in a custom theme. To do what you want you would need to copy the Default theme's folder and rename the copy whatever you want. Then with LB closed edit the GameDetailsView.xaml for that new theme. Around line 1191 in the code is the StackPanel for the Game Title. That area is where you would want to make any edits. You should see a couple of TextBlocks in that StackPanel for the Game.Title to delete or comment out. Keep in mind this may bring the video up closer to the Platform Name so you may need to pad the spacing.

In that first pic you have LB for some reason installed to \Launchbox\Launchbox folder. When you did a reinstall its likely that is when that occurred. It just needs to be \Launchbox. Open the \Launchbox folder and see if you have another Launchbox folder inside it. If so that is likely the issue and causing the conflict. Remove that subfolder.

The change log is posted in the first post. Any changes to the Default theme in a release would be noted.

Did you get any sort of error message or it just returns to LB/BB. Tested both these systems on my main cab and my test set-up and games ran fine.

My bad I misread what you posted. For some reason when you said in BigBox the pdf "automatically uses a different reader than sumatra" I read that as it was using the BB default. Not sure what I was thinking. If you deleted Sumatra did you also check to make sure in your BB settings you had to option ticked to "Use built-in pdf reader"?

Yes. I have several throughout my home and office. The cabs typically run 24/7. If I need to shut them down I back out to the options menu and scroll to the bottom and select exit. This way with no button mapped to “Exit” my machines never run the risk of the kids button mashing and closing BB.

Possible. Honestly never really ran into that issue myself in well over 7 years. I don’t have exit mapped to any key/button in my builds as I typically use the menu option to close BB. This way with all the kids (my children and their friends) always mashing buttons BB has never closed. I think this is the first I have seen anyone ask for that as a feature. Feel free to request a feature upgrade. Top of the forum under Help & Support is a Feature Request link.

Do not believe there is such a setting. You could just go into Keyboard/Controller mapping in BB and change "Exit" to a different key. That setting is for "exiting" BB.

Free users can always download latest release updates. There is not a different release for premium users versus free version users.

Some more information would be helpful as to what you mean not functioning.

If you are being asked to confirm exit then you need to open the emulator and change that setting. Some emulators in their options will have a setting. Open Citra exe and click on >Emulation >Configure. In the General tab uncheck “Confirm Exit” or similar. LB/BB controller automation for exit will send some common close commands. So it will try Escape, Alt+F4 and a few others. If you are having some issues try a simple AHK like below. Many of us use one of the 8bitdo controllers and Xinput works fine. Dolphin might be one of those troublesome ones. I just checked and I have the script below in my Dolphin set-up. Make sure you are putting the AHK in the "Running Script" tab. The "Exit Script tab is for exiting from the Pause Menu. The dollar sign may not be needed so try with or without it. $Esc:: { WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} } For Cemu I believe it needs Alt+F4 to exit. So try this one. ESC:: { SetTitleMatchMode, 2 WinWaitActive, Cemu Send !{f4} }

In BB Settings > General ....all the way towards the bottom turn off the option to use built-in pdf reader. Then in Windows make sure you set Sumatra as your Default reader for pdf files.

Why are you using an AHK script to close the emulator? You mentioned Citra in your post, LB/BB can natively close a game launched by pretty much all emulators without needing an AHK. Just map the buttons in the LB and BB settings. Xinput would not be an issue. In LB tools under controller mapping just bind both buttons you want pressed to the "Exit" command. Select the "Exit" option and hit both buttons at the same time. In BB settings you will bind a "hold" button and then bind the second button to the option for "Close Active Window".

LB does not offer "complete" builds. You have to download LB and find your own roms to add. To download LB click on the "Download" link at the top fo the forum, enter your email, and you will be sent a link to download LB. You can also purchase a license (yearly or lifetime) to enjoy premium features.

Not sure I follow you on this. The "Parents" tab shows up in edit window when you right click on the name and select edit. The "Parents" tab even shows up if you go >Tools >Manage >Platforms and edit any platform from there. So not really sure where you are looking that does not show the parents tab. Yes, just add it like any rom and assign it the "new emulator" you added. Also make sure in that "new emulator" you add the platform name of the magazines that will be opened with that reader to the "Associated Platforms" tab.

No worries. End goal was getting you where you want. Now just make sure when you add new magazine platforms check the "Parents" tab and make sure you check the box for the "Category" you want it under. Also make sure "root" is unchecked or it will show up in both places. Also, you can always move existing items anywhere you want just by editing its "Parents" tab.

You are making a new Platform Category. That is exactly what your pics are showing. What you are missing if you are not clicking on the "Parents" tab and telling LB to show it on the main level like the other Platform Categories. I mentioned in my prior posts you need to do this. I also showed you a pic of that. In the "Parents" tab check the box for "Root" Also as @Headrush69 mentioned the new "Category" will not show up the drop arrow until you add a platform with its imported magazines to it. So when you add a new magazine platform go into the "Parents" tab and check the box for "Magazines" (Platform Category) so it will show up as an option under it. Here is an example of just now adding "Test 1" as a new "Category"

In your LB on that left side, right click on a platform name and post a pic of what shows. Please make sure to have the pic show the entire left hand side of your screen. What version LB are you on.

Left hand pane right click any platform name and choose "Add" > "New Category"

You need to change the view on the left hand side of LB from "Platforms" to "Platform Category. Then when you try to "Add" it will now give you the "Platform Category" option. It is the drop-down box right under the Search box.

LB sees this levels. 1) Platform Category 2) Platform 3) Playlist 1) Platform Category: This can be anything you want to top level organize "Platforms" and "Playlists". A Platform Category can have any Platform and/or Playlist within it. It can never have individual games. 2) Platform: This is the main area you import individual games or magazines (such as you and others have done). A Platform can ONLY have individual games in it. 3) Playlists: These are the custom playlists you make and like Platforms can only have games in it. However, nothing is ever imported into a playlist it will only "list" games that meet the criteria you spelled out. When you edit a Platform Category, Platform, or Playlist there is a tab called "Parents" that tab allow you to tell LB where you want that "Platform Category", "Platform", or "Playlist to show up in your list. If you make a new "Category" be sure to check the box for "Root" so it shows up like the others LB already made. So in your case you can set it up like this. > Magazines (Platform Category: ") >Arcadia: (Platform) >All your individual Arcadia Magazines will be imported into "Arcadia" platform >Neo Geo Freak: (Platform) >All your individual Arcadia Magazines will be imported into "Neo Geo Freak" platform >Famitsu: (Platform) >All your individual Arcadia Magazines will be imported into "Famitsu" platform ....and so on.

You can specify what it is. In the "Add Application" screen just give it a name and point to the path of the pdf. LB and BB will show the name you gave it.

Yes. You can create for example a "Magazines" Platform Category and then in that main Category have the individual magazines as platforms. You can set up an emulator to launch the files such as Comic Book Reader to launch cbr files and then import the files like you would roms. Similar if you want to use a specific exe to launch pdf files or some other file format.

Right click and edit a game. In the additional apps tab add the files and call them what you want. They will be available as additional apps in LB, in BB they will show up as options to select in the Game Details view, and pdf files will also show up as a selectable option from a Pause Theme.

See this. If you still have issues post in that thread.
