One thing I noticed was on launch will not maximize?

Once I manually maximize and exit and re-open doesn't remember to launch maximized. Even when resizing the window manually by dragging it will not remember the last position and size. Hopefully you can add in an option to remember the window position and size on last launch. 

Loving the new look and loading much faster than 2.3 

Good Job! Thank you for the hard work you put into this project much appreciated. Merry Christmas too you and your family!

Nicely done! Thanks again (and always) for sharing this great program

Wow it's finally here. I just downloaded and tested a simple wheel item template. The performance for those in wall views are way better now! Thanks so much

can you add OpenType-SVG fonts support in your plugin?

Brilliant, thanks a lot @y2guru. That's my Boxing Day sorted!

Thanks for all your hard work and Merry Christmas.

 I think this is maybe a Big Box issue and not CTC related?  The recent games element is always cropped on the bottom.  Even if the default theme is showing, it's still cropped.

  I'm also not sure if the key activation can be changed since it's expecting the recent games below the wheel, not above it.  Therefore it reacts to down, not up control input which is backwards.

 Does anyone use 'recent games' in their theme and what is your experience?

@y2guru Hi mate, how does the size to content box work for the image canvas when we are creating a wheel template?

Whenever i enable it then images/templates just dissappear when checking them in the views so im not sure what i'm doing wrong.

It was something I was playing around with so I wouldn’t enable it

Ah OK thanks

I was hoping i could use it to auto resize the front boxes so we dont have to have a background behind them 🙂

Has anyone here used the fake rom list and already added it to launchbox?

I built one through CTC so i can test out more platforms but saw i have to import all 179 Platforms individually in launchbox so if someone who has already done it and could zip up and share the all data file xmls it would help me immensely.

Good Morning,

Are any animated image files like GIF or APNG supported using "image" in the template creator? I just tried GIF and I could not select that file type. Just curious before I try to convert some over to a supported file type.

Thanks,

@y2guru I may have found a problem.

I've set up my theme with the new remap layout to change the sizes and location of videos and sometimes after publishing this happens.   

When you publish the second time it normally fixes it though and and everything works as it should.

I forgot to add i have quite a few conditions set now but this also happened when i had very little and was just testing things out

Will do 👍

On another note is there anyway to display video marquees with CTC?

I tried a user defined video, selecting metadata images as game then point the images folder to a folder with the marquee videos in but that didnt work lol
