    I found something in the documentation. Essentially replace "Active" with "Selected". I suggest only on the platform view.

    Data Binding Properties for Root Filters/Platforms Views 
    SelectedPlatform vs. ActivePlatform Please note that with the below properties, anywhere SelectedPlatform is used, ActivePlatform can be used instead. ActivePlatform will wait for the selection to be completely updated before updating, while SelectedPlatform will update immediately upon selecting a new platform

    Yeah, i've changed from Selected to Active because Selected can drag the performance when you're switching between platforms. For me it didn't affect at all, but i don't have many systems on my launchbox.

    Super happy you ported this! I kind of swore off pi's just because of all the little issues that kind of add up to to be more trouble than its worth. Mini Pc's with BigBox from now on. Friends who know nothing about emulation, front ends or anything always love this theme the most too. 

    Thanks a lot, i'm glad you like it!

    @bundangdon, sorry if i don't understood, i'm still learning about all those views that LB offers... you mean a second platform view with the list arranged like your sketch? if so, i don't think that would be a problem to do, because the layout it's pretty much done and i can make one of the platforms that way.

    @wallmachine i agree, but i always likes simple things, i think that if a theme has too much information, it will end up like an website or a newspaper. I know a lot of people thinks in the opposite way and love to see every details of a game, plus some screens, video and fan art popping out, but i tend to make things more visual and simplier than informative and with too much itens to see because the whole purpouse is just choose the games to play.

    I've tried to make themes with lots of stuff for hyperspin on the past and they all looked like crap because i didn't know where to put the stuff, lol
