Platform Categories Automatically Extended?


Valhalla_FYR

Recommended Posts

I'm still learning the ins and outs of using LaunchBox, but I'm loving it so far! Anyway, I'm currently using the "Steamy" theme and was wondering if there was a way to have my Platform Categories (left Side Bar when using "Images View") extended by default that way I don't have to click a category to see what platforms are in them. Any help is appreciated!

P.S. I'm trying to do this without changing from the Platform Category setting, as I like having them grouped as they are. If it's not possible, then that's okay

Typically it's better to ask about theme related issues in that theme's support thread. You're more likely for the dev to see it. I'll have to take a look at Steamy, I can't remember how I set the tree up. I don't remember collapsing everything, but it's entirely possible. You could change the theme files to make every extended like you're asking though. I'll have to track down where you make the change in it to do so though as that theme's code is pretty gnarly and difficult to maneuver through.

Close LaunchBox entirely
Go to the following file and open it in a text editor: \\LaunchBox\LBThemes\Steamy\Views\SideBarView.xaml
Go to line 72.
Replace the Value in that line with True

Line should look like this if done correctly:
<Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="True" />

Save the file and restart LaunchBox
