Are you asking if it’s possible to do using the creator or wanting to know how to do it using the creator? -
the main issue I had with fonts was the publishing function did not know which font file to copy to the final theme folder and that meant the intended fonts would not show, but that doesn’t smell like a language issue, I’ll guess we’ll find out once I release this new build -
Yep I did, I put the video together later than I had planned so it coincided with the laundry ?
-
HD Video is still being processed

Supports 9xplatform and 9xgame custom images (whatever you want to use them for) 9xplatform category custom images 9xplaylist custom images
-
Not yet, within 2 weeks it should be out on the forum
-
Awesome! The build is practically ready to go, waiting on Jason to finalize his bigbox changes and officially release 10.12. In the meantime I’m just making a few tweaks here and there. I’ll put a video together this weekend to cover all the changes in 1.0.7.0
-
Perfect! Then you’ll be ready for the next build. I did exactly the same thing with the marquees I was playing around with, built some of the static assets on my Mac then pulled them into a template and fired off a mass build, the new version saves the images with the database id ? plus many other changes to make it more accessible
-
You’re welcome, I’m curious... are you creating custom images via the editor?
-
Use ActiveGame.LaunchBoxDbId SelectedGame.LaunchBoxDbId then rename your custom file names to use database ID instead of game titles

It is 100% on the list, there were other things holding that up

Ok I gotcha, so you want to see the playlist name if viewing games by playlist, I am yet to add playlist support to the theme creator , once I do I will add the relevant metadata fields
-
Game platform doesn’t show the platform name associated with a game?
-
You are welcome
-
I’ve increased it from 4 to 9, expect this version to be out in 1-2 weeks
-
You need 6 custom images? ?
-
Last time I checked bigbox does not allow the wall view to use selected item videos , if that has changed then I can allow the selected item video to be used
-
I think you have done a fantastic job of creating this Theme Harry and I wasn't even aware that you were putting one together! I love the imagery and I love the animated Picard.. very subtle! but it works. -
The Theme creator does not work that way, it has a set of preset UI Elements that you essentially drop onto a blank canvas and manipulate the properties, think of PowerPoint but as you add UI elements to the canvas it is generating XAML behind the scenes
-
The Creator is 100% GUI, you do not need to know how to code in order to build a theme, I’ve tried to shy away from using coding jargon. i have YouTube videos on my channel that could assist you but as this app is in Alpha the interface has gone thru a few changes but the overall how to remains the same. Start with this video as I build a theme and various views from scratch But I do include a theme for people to play with/reverse engineer. no extra software is required, if you have launchbox then you should be good to go.
