VinceF Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hi, Been playing around with themes and it seems like in order to get a new theme to "work", I have to reboot my computer. Is there a way to refresh Big Box so that as I switch between themes and or views of a theme, it's apparent right away? I watched a video by ETA Prime on YouTube that was a basic primer for noobs with LB/BB and it appeared all he did was just hit the back button to exit the options and the theme changed, but that's not happening for me. What am I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is how it works, if it's not for you then you have something very strange going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 The only thing i can think of is that you are currently using a view that the theme you are switching to hasnt themed, so it looks the same as the theme you switched from. Apart from that i couldnt say what the issue is, i certainly have never heard this issue happening to anyone else before though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played it with all the themes and views yet but what I believe is happening, is when I unzipped the theme and put it in the Themes folder, it was still within a folder titled the name of the theme... so instead of Themes>Unified, it was Themes>Unified>Unified, then all the files... so it wasn't being read correctly. I figured it out because it seemed like the Critical Zone Default theme was making changes as I made changes to the platform or game wheel, but none of the other themes were so I looked at that folder to see what the difference was and that's when I discovered what was happening. I briefly tested one theme by correcting the folder path and that seems to have made a difference. Will try the others and check it out but think I'm on the right track....

Yes that will certainly stop themes from being read, glad you figured it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
