Mapping a button to show controls? (Manuel)

There are no Custom button/key mappings available in LB/BB.

I haven't messed with CP Wizards Pause-Menu Lua script in several years.  Almost surprised to hear that it still works. But it's good to hear that it does. :) 

What I did was have CP Wizard generate all the control panel images and then put them into the \LaunchBox\Images\Arcade\Arcade - Controls Information\ folder.  I then modified a Startup Theme and a Pause Theme, respectively, to have them show that image for the selected game. Of course, the Startup Theme only shows it for a few seconds.

I think those are probably the 2 keys times you'd want to see it.

Also, with them being in that folder, in LaunchBox, if you press Ctrl+i, it'll bring up all the games' images full screen.  You can then scroll through them and see it that way.  Same thing in BigBox when you go into Game Detail and select View Images.  In BigBox, you can also map a button to View Images (don't think it's mapped by default) without having to go into the game details. But again, it's all images for that game that you can scroll through.
