Pat Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) Hey there I recently started to use LaunchBox and - holy cow! - it took about all of three seconds to make this my new favorite frontend. It's a blast to use and it took the fraction of the time to import my games compared to all others I tried. I use fairly complex batch files to start everything. They check and start various things by checking the ROM-name (without extension) and so on. Now this is all well and good and basically works as intended by using %1. Now my question: I thought about cleaning up my batch files and use the awesome additional programs feature. Are there variables that I can use? Like %ROMNAME%, %ROMPATH%, or similar? Also, a I tried to search for an answer in the forums but couldn't find anything. So I apologize if this question has been answered before. Another small questions: I like to use all input methods to control my frontend. And this works really great with LaunchBox! There is just one simple thing: Mousewheel. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I can't use the mouse wheel in BigBox whenever I'm not using list view. Also, whenever there is horizontal scrolling, it would be great if I could use the wheel as well. Is that possible? And finally (for the moment) something rather odd: How about the option to NOT show favorites in the recent list? As an option, of course! Bear with me: Favorites have their own list in BigBox so they appear in platform view anyway. So my idea is to have a recent list which shows all other games. Yeah, I'm probably the only person on earth who wants this. Anyway, thanks for this awesome frontend and I'm positively flabbergasted about the progress you're making! Keep it up!

DOS76 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 There is a setting in BigBox to enable mouse control. I've never enabled it but that may get your mouse wheel working but I can't promise anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 Oh, I'm sorry, I probably wasn't clear enough with my mousewheel explanation: I did enable mouse control and that works. It's just the limited mousewheel support: I can use the wheel as long as I am in list view but as soon as I switch to wheel view or any kind of horizontally scrolling box view, the wheel doesn't work anymore. I know, it's no big deal. But I would love to scroll through my game boxes using the mousewheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
