KillerQ Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) Hello, When using hyperspin, I was able to have the main system wheel launch an emulator. That is, instead of having all the tables for pinball FX in a sub wheel, I just had a main system wheel for pinball FX and when I clicked on that instead of going to a sub wheel, it would start the pinball FX program. Is there a way to have a main system wheel on launchbox initiate a program? Or does there have to be a sub wheel? Thanks!

DOS76 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 You can't start a emulator or program from the platform wheel it would have to be done from the games wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerQ Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 I wonder if this has ever been requested. I bet it's just one line of code away from being a feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 It has been requested by at least one person but there didn't seem like much interest in it being worked on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had a small handful of very vocal users that have wanted this, but when it was on a community poll know one cared and it got hardly any votes. As for it being a single line of code, thats not true at all, it would actually be a major overhaul of the interface and backend code as everything would need to know that its possible to load into a app directly rather than opening a new wheel, so a complete re-structure of Launchbox and Bigbox would be required. Hence it hasnt been implemented as so few users care about having it so it is not worth the dev time/money currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
