Feature Request: wall view in Big Box

[Mermsky]

Hi, I use Kodi for watching movies and TV shows. I have it set up with 'Wall View'. Which is 3 lines of thumbnails with an info box on the side.

I thought it would be really cool if Launchbox were able to add this view in big box.

Is this possible @Jason Carr ?

 

Thanks

Hi @Mermsky, I've wanted to add this for quite a while now, but it hasn't gotten prioritized. Still, thanks for the reminder. I'll probably add it to the next community poll.

Awesome! That's good to hear,

Loving what you guys do

Keep up the good work

Yes this would be perfect! grid view is the best way to brows a large list + it scales much better between between ultrawide, widescreen and 4:3 monitors.

I  looked into creating a theme using xaml grid layout but was just too complicated for me.

As an avid Plex (and former XBMC/Kodi) user, I'm all for this. This was always my go-to view for Kodi and it's just how Plex is normally laid out - I think it's a great way to browse a large collection.

Yes, this view would be great.

I've kind of been waiting for this since Big Box was even conceptualized.

I need BOTH "full wall view" (no info shown, only titles) and "wall view" (seem image posted by Mermsky) . I am running the launchbox plugin for Kodi and would like the interfaces to match as much as possible.

it would also be nice to have a view that resembles STEAM. Would it be possible to control the size of the covers shown?

I do not have big box, But if you add this kind of view to Big box you'll have a new Lifetime member!! 

I want to recomend the vertical scrolling in this kind of view

[Lordmonkus]

Wall view is in but the theme makers need to make themes to take advantage of it.

[Drodrik]

Is it posible to create a  big box theme with grid view?

[Lordmonkus]

Yes.

Some themes disable that view and others just don't theme for the view so it doesn't look as good as it could. I have seen a theme in the works that uses that view and it looks really nice.

Like I said it's on the theme makers to take advantage of the view and make it look good.

[Drodrik]

Do you have any link or screenshot of these themes? it sounds very nice

[Lordmonkus]

I don't unfortunately, they are a work in progress and the theme maker doesn't want it shown off yet.
