Theme Creation Question

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I'm trying to create a theme that uses 3D Cart Images. I want to use custom ones that only the theme I'm creating uses.

What is the path necessary to place the custom images and have my theme use those images?

I've tried --

ThemeName/Images/Games/Games Cart3D

ThemeName/Images/Games/Games Cart 3D

ThemeName/Images/Games/Games Cart - 3D

 

I know @faeran did it with his Vision theme for fanart using

Vision/Images/Games/Games Background

It depends on what you want to use the image for. Do you want them inside of a wheel, or just displayed somewhere on the screen?

Hi Faeron,

I guess it would be nice to know both answers.

For my specific issue, it's inside of a wheel.

Thanks!

For inside of the wheel, check out CustomImageType inside of documentation.pdf

For outside of a wheel, you would use a binding like the game's title or the game database ID, and use that inside of an image binding, combined with stringformat to point towards the location of your images.

something like this:

<coverFlow:FlowImage ImagePath="{Binding ActiveGame.Title, StringFormat='LAUNCHBOX_THEME_FOLDER/Images/Games/3D Cart/{0}.png'}" />

Awesome, thank you!
