Release year is not advisable. as I said create a text field mapped to metadata release date with date format of yyyy then set that text element to hidden now you condition against that text element -
no, add a hidden text field that uses release date (with a date format of Year Month Date) and then you condition against that hidden text field
-
you havent shared a screenshot of how the animation is being triggered
-
what version of CTC are you running?
-
Copy/paste works, code has not been modified
-
It doesn’t care what view / wheel item template / custom image this is called from, just make sure you type the values into the last 2 rows
-
anything with an "A" icon in the element list, so.. Hardware Overlay, Full Screen White Background (Maybe) look at the start times for the same trigger types (During Selection, Once Selected) as when those triggers are set, the expectation is that the elements will move or react at the same time and as you know, they are not.
-
Madheads issues are due to 2 animations starting at different times and hence will never be in sync.
-
If you can find an example of where it’s used I’ll look at the XAML
-
Show me the example from the standard BigBox theme
-
yes the animation start times need to be updated to be in sync as why they match in one version and not in another i couldnt tell you, again not the software, maintained by the author.
-
so, I figured out why the animations dont work in the main window, they only work when navigation up/down is pressed (and navigation up/down is not used in the main window), that answers the remaining issue. I see no software issues with CTC
-
animation start values have nothing to do with the software, those values are altered by the author
-
Yeah I can figure out the triggering issue in Ctc (looking into that now) but I looked at the movement animations and they start at 1.1 and 2.5 for the two different elements, that would why they don’t start at the same time. That’s not a Ctc thing
-
Nah that’s not it. It’s about triggering the animations, in the editor it’s triggering, the main window isn’t and now bigbox apparently has different timings when triggers are updated. I’ll take a look tonight to resolve the Ctc side but I’ll have to reach out to the lb team to confirm any timing changes

well, so far its been broken since 3.1.5
-
yeah something is definitely off. did you open the platforms view in the editor itself (enable animations plus animations with movement) then use the virtual game pad? it looks fine in the editor, just not engaging some of the animations in the main preview window
-
remember i dont have a point of reference like you do, so i dont know what/how the animations are supposed to look like. What version of CTC do the animations look correct? and can you zip up that version of the Theme project and send to me directly so I can do a side-by-side comparison.
-
Have you tried the theme in an earlier version of bigbox? how does it play in CTC?
-
have you tried creating shortcuts and placing them in the BigBox Media Override folder?
-
Yeah it would but I cannot help that I’m afraid as a platform videopath binding is empty when used within the wheel
-
It is indeed fixed. Tested right after I updated to beta 2 yesterday, I just didn't have a chance to follow up with you guys, sorry. Thanks for squeezing that fix in, should make a lot of people happy !
-
I remember this issue now, this is due to a bindable value not being populated in PlatformViews specifically when used within the Wheel Item (Coverflow:FlowContext) {Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type coverFlow:FlowContext}}, Path=DataContext.BindableThemeVideoOrVideoPath} BindableThemeVideoOrVideoPath would be empty in platform views but populated in Game Views, so i had to perform a workaround without peeking into the LB database to locate the filename as that would be expensive when loading up wheel items. My suggestion is to take your platform specific videos and copy/paste them into the BigBox Media Overrides location and if this is ever fixed, i will remove my workaround.
