Retrofrogg Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Thanks Neil. I read that the fix came with this update so thought it would be OK. I'll find that workaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have the title showing under the box art, so it seems redundant, and looks a bit cluttered. I wasn't sure if there was an existing option for that. Thanks.

List view is designed to sort by column headers. On 7/21/2023 at 7:03 PM, spycat said: I just updated from 13.5 official to 13.6 beta 6 with no issues. However, in the LaunchBox Themes Manager I can only see the Default and Old Default themes, and not Default, Old Default and Old Default (Legacy) as mentioned in the update splash window. You'll see it appear in the theme manager sometime shortly after release. We will most likely also have it available on the forums. The theme itself is deemed legacy and will not be receiving any updates moving forward. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks... the default theme is coming along nicely with these small changes. Thanks for listening to the feedback. I'm also wondering, along the same lines as the text, is there an option, or could one be included, to remove the top pane from the game and platform details bar? It looks good but it seems redundant to have the game or platform name twice right next to each other. I would like to see my images in that space. Also, I like the animated glare effect on the box fronts... that was a nice touch. Looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoderer Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Having a strange problem with 13.6.: I can no longer savely remove my external LB-harddrive after closing LB. I made a few tests: 1) Reboot - launching LB 13.6. - close it - try to savely remove HD: FAILED (I tried many times, LB seems to close fine and isn't running in the task manager) 2) Reboot - not launching LB - try to savely remove HD - WORKS 3) Reboot - rolling back to 13.5 - launching LB - close it - try to savely remove HD: WORKS Can anyone reproduce this? I searched the task manager, but couldn't find any LB-related tasks, which could be the cause for this. Trying to find out, if it's a general or local problem.

I searched the task manager, but couldn't find any LB-related tasks, which could be the cause for this. Trying to find out, if it's a general or local problem. not being able to remove ("eject") the disk could be an infinite number of things. I use external docks to move my disks between systems and it happens far more often, almost all the time, on Windows 10. Yet on Windows 11 I can always eject the disks. There are times I restart Windows 10 and try to eject before anything even launches....still get the message it cannot due to being used....even though it's not really being used. Sometimes it randomly works, even after using LB/BB. A normal shutdown is perfectly safe, it will flush anything it needs to and then you can power off and remove your disk(s) afterwards. You do not need to be ejecting the disk(s) prior to a shutdown. If you wanted to remove the disk(s) prior to a shutdown and this occurs....well.....it just ain't gonna happen and you would need to shutdown or at least try a restart. Been using LB/BB since around v12, it's certainly not version related. Close any other game launchers like Steam, Uplay, Epic, Rockstar, Origin etc if those games exist on same disk(s). Try to restart Windows Explorer. Those are about the only two things I've ever had to do. This is something at the OS level, I wouldn't be blaming LB/BB from my experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be related to new logic that installs font files to the system so they can be used by Default theme and seen in the options menu. We are looking into other reports of files getting locked because of this logic and is on the short list of things to look into. The font install logic is a session install meaning restarting the computer would release the lock. I'm unsure if simply logging out would or would not do the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK so my issues sure don't seem LB related. This never occurred with Windows 7, and I have yet to experience a real stuck disk with Windows 11. Windows 10 on the other hand....constantly occurs with or without LB being in the mix. For what it's worth I have found some random LB process, usually two instances when I do find them, running after closing LB/BB. But manually ending them has never helped the issue. Hence why I would assume the issue lies elsewhere. I've had no concrete proof of LB or any other single program at that being the culprit, with the only exception being Windows 10 sure seems more prone to the problem. And if this matters, it only occurs with internal disks being connected externally. If it's an external disk by design like a USB thumb drive this issue doesn't occur. So I would bet this is most likely impacting users who either use a 2.5" or 3.5" disk that is in a self-contained enclosure or use a dock. I've only used USB to connect disks like this so not sure if for example if something like Thunderbolt connected disks would suffer the same issue.

ToniBC Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I have noticed that in the final version 13.6, when you put the cursor over a game, the full name appears in a popup as if it did in the last beta. In other words, when you select the game and leave the mouse there, the entire name appeared before and now nothing appears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that, is that if the name is very long, it doesn't come out complete and in the previous beta, the full name was shown when you left the mouse over the game. Now we only have to see the name cut or not see it and only when you hover over the game. Another option could be that the name of the game would scroll, but it would be slower. I think it's better to leave the two options as before or put a new option to see the name when you hover over the game and that's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhite Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 I'm not sure if is the right place, but how we disable the rounded corner (front box) on the default theme 13.6? There is a option in launchbox or we need to edit a file? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a option in launchbox or we need to edit a file? Technically not the correct place as comments here should be based on testing of releases. A theme subthread would have been better. To answer you question though you would need to copy the Default theme folder and rename the new copy. Then you can edit that new theme and would need to change the theme's code to get rid of the rounded corners. The Default theme's code can never be directly edited. I believe you want to look for BoxesContentView edit that. Then look for line 232 and change CornerRadius to 0. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drybonz Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 You guys could open a thread for feedback on the new default theme since it is such a major addition. I'm sure people would like to get in a conversation about it if you gave them a new thread instead of this one. Just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darreldearth Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 The bottom bar which had play music as well as other options is gone now. is there an option to re-enable it? Otherwise, is the only way to play music by right clicking now? Also, when selecting to show Text for all games it shows the developer along with the name of the game. is there a way to hide the developer and only show the name of the game?
