Mr. RetroLust Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Do note that the blur effect wont be noticeable much when theres lots of black in the image, so test out on colorful marquees to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sascha-FFM Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Yes, I definitely did use colorful ones. And I scrolled through at least 20-30 of them, just to enjoy the new experience with the digital marquee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Test this for me. You have a couple things conflicting so trying to figure out what you are trying to do. I did not catch it earlier as I was quickly glancing at things. This is just a simple version of the original magic marquee adjusted to fit your screen. Let me know if it works and you see the marquee and the blur. Your code was showing the stock marquee image, then you were trying to do a multibinding to show a marquee image and then the image blur under it. I assume that you want a default image to show if there is no marquee (from the Arcade - Marquee folder. _default)?

Sascha-FFM Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I love it! It is working just as expected. I have re-added the drop-shadow effects from the filler magic and the appearance is just great. Thank you so much @Retro808 This is going to be a real eye-catcher once it is build into my cabinet. Here is the (I guess) final version in case someone with a 1920x360 display is seeking for the same solution. I will post this into the filler-magic download as well. <UserControl xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignHeight="1080" d:DesignWidth="1920" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" FocusVisualStyle="{x:Null}" BorderThickness="0" Margin="0" Padding="0" Background="#000"> <!-- GRID DEFINITIONS --> <Grid > <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width="1*" /> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height="*" /> <RowDefinition Height="*" /> <RowDefinition Height="*" /> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <!-- GAME MARQUEE --> <Image Source="{Binding Path=SelectedGame.MarqueeImagePath}" Panel.ZIndex="9" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Stretch="Uniform" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" RenderOptions.BitmapScalingMode="HighQuality"><Image.Effect><DropShadowEffect BlurRadius="99" /></Image.Effect></Image> <Image Source="{Binding Path=SelectedGame.MarqueeImagePath}" Panel.ZIndex="0" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Stretch="Fill" RenderOptions.BitmapScalingMode="LowQuality"><Image.Effect><BlurEffect Radius="99"/></Image.Effect></Image> </Grid> </UserControl> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasu Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Hello everyone, i have a dual screen on my arcade with one cut LCD Screen for the marquee. Recently i have upgrade my main monitor by a 4k, and since my marquee in Big Box does'nt work anymore (no image or nothing), when i put my resolution in FHD the marquee is here. So i think it's a problem with the resolution of my main monitor. Someone have a solution ? Thank you very much Edited July 9, 2021 by Kasu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
