How do you get Big Box to show 3D box art? Screenshots inside.

Hey there, I made a bunch of 3D box art and I'm having trouble getting it to show up in Big Box, but is working in Launch Box.
I'm hoping that someone here can offer a pointer or two when it comes to using 3D box art in Big Box.

I believe I have the correct option set in the Big Box options but it doesn't seem to be working.

The theme I'm trying to use is: Pulse

Screenshot 1 - The screen where I want to use my 3D box art.

Screenshot 2 - My options screen showing that I have 3D box art selected.

Screenshot 3 - Showing the 3D art is loaded in and working for desktop.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi @Huckin The Dubz. Pulse is a custom theme that is forcing 2D Boxes to appear within its wheel. This is why you can't change the box using the Big Box setting, as it's designed to only work with a specific piece of code from the default theme that Pulse isn't utilizing.

If you feel adventurous, you can dive into the View's code and make the following change.

• The files are located in: LaunchBox\Themes\Pulse\Views
• Looks like you are using one of the Horizontal views, open the one you are using and find the property: ImageType="Boxes"
• Change that to: ImageType="3D Boxes"

Make the save and load up Big Box.

Thanks @faeran that's just what I was hoping someone would say about being able to tweak the theme code. I'm going to give that a shot a little later tonight.
