I'm not sure how important this is, but following up on the ListBoxScrollCenterNS_05.dll, it only seems to crash BigBox when it starts if you are using that plugin in the SystemView.xaml file. You can use the plugin in Games or Platforms/Filters view with no issues.

Do you have documentation for that?

Oh good to hear @C-Beats. Thank you for letting me know that!

@faeran I've been creating themes for probably 5 years or so. I'm still old fashioned and just write my themes in notepad. I pretty much use the Community Theme Creator for the plugins. So, once I've created a theme, I don't update them or anything.

The plugin causing this for me is ListBoxScrollCenterNS_05.dll

It's still crashing upon startup for me too. I did troubleshoot it down to it being a plugin issue. I have some themes I created that use a lot of different plugins. I tried removing the plugins directory for the theme that BigBox defaults to on startup. When the plugins directory was removed, Bigbox started fine. When I put the plugins directory back in, it crashed. I'm guessing if @Suhrvivor tried removing the plugins directory for whatever theme he/she is using when BigBox starts, they will find that solves the crashing issue. I reverted back to 12.14 and it's fine with the plugins. Now the question is... What plugin is causing this???

Nope

I can verify @Suhrvivor's issue. I'm getting the same thing.

Great work guys! Is there a list or way to see what the 51 new FilterDetailsView & 36 GameDetailsView bindings are? Thanks!

Got it. Thanks!

Hey Faeran, I like to mess around with new features when I can to try and help with finding bugs (plus it's just fun). Could you elaborate a bit more on -- "Improvement: FlowContext now has new properties that you can use for styling based on where the item is in relation to the selected item (for Big Box theme developers)" Thanks!

Makes sense. Do you have any plans to add WallViews to PlatformViews? Also, thanks for the responses. I'm always appreciative to the fact that you, Jason, and Faeran are as responsive as you are. You guys are doing a great job with your business, and I don't think you're reminded of that enough. (No, I'm not looking for a job, haha)!!!

One other thing you may want to check into (no hurry) is that you can't have multiple rows in PlatformViews.

You are correct. I wasn't spacing things enough. My apologies.

I also think I misspoke about PlatformView using FlowTemplate. What I meant is that I noticed some of the new WallView features don't work when incorporating them into PlatformViews that use FlowTemplate. Like the SelectedItemSpacing, or the ability to have multiple Rows.

I guess I'm not understanding why the SelectedItemSpacing isn't working in PlatformView then.

So I forgot to ask... Will the PlatformView use FlowTemplate like the GamesView at some point in the future?

Looks good!!!

The "SelectedItemSpacing" doesn't appear to work in the PlatformViews. Is it supposed to?

The WallView seems pretty messed up now. You can use the default theme, navigate around a bit and see that the spacing is off and that things shift around oddly.

Hey Guys, The new related games list is really cool. Thanks for that! Is there any chance that it will be at all customizable in BigBox as far as how it looks? The ability to make it fullscreen/custom size, change colors, etc... Thanks for all you do!

I've noticed this too. However, the jerkiness for me seems to be with the selected scale and selected offset properties. If I don't use those properties, everything seems to be pretty smooth.

Thanks @faeran! I've found a couple more bugs with the new FlowControl. 1. In PlatformView you are not able to navigate up and down, only left and right. 2. In WallGamesView the endless looping doesn't work properly, it has significant drawing/animation errors. Thanks!

Hi guys, I've posted an image of a theme issue I'm currently having. There appears to be a black border on the right and left side of my images using the new FlowControl. It also doesn't appear to be correctly putting a border around the currently selected image. I've made several themes using the same settings in WallViews and have not had this issue. It only affects the Platform/Filters views. Any idea's? I've attached the code as well. <coverFlow:FlowControl x:Name="FlowControl" Grid.Column="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="3" Grid.Row="3" Grid.RowSpan="1" NavigationRows="0" Rows="1" ItemSpacing="-0.175,0" Endless="True" SelectedScale="1,1"> <coverFlow:FlowControl.Camera> <OrthographicCamera Position="0,0,5" LookDirection="0,0,-1" NearPlaneDistance=".1" FarPlaneDistance="1000" Width="9.5"/> </coverFlow:FlowControl.Camera> <coverFlow:FlowControl.FlowTemplate> <DataTemplate> <coverFlow:FlowContext> <Border BorderThickness="5"> <Border.Style> <Style TargetType="Border"> <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Transparent"/> <Setter Property="Opacity" Value="1"/> <Style.Triggers> <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type coverFlow:FlowContext}}, Path=IsItemSelected}" Value="True"> <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#ffffff"/> </DataTrigger> <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type coverFlow:FlowContext}}, Path=IsRowSelected}" Value="True"> <Setter Property="Opacity" Value="1"/> </DataTrigger> </Style.Triggers> </Style> </Border.Style> <coverFlow:FlowImage ImageType="Banner"/> </Border> </coverFlow:FlowContext> </DataTemplate> </coverFlow:FlowControl.FlowTemplate> <coverFlow:FlowControl.Effect> <DropShadowEffect Color="#000000" ShadowDepth="0" BlurRadius="8" Opacity="1" RenderingBias="Performance"/> </coverFlow:FlowControl.Effect> </coverFlow:FlowControl>

A Alright. I thought this could be related to updates to FlowControl.
