Displaying Additional Metadata

[mangaka92]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm wondering if there's any option to add at least one -- maybe two -- additional lines of metadata under all of the games in Launchbox using the default theme? 

Right now, only the game's title and developer are displayed -- "Chono Trigger" and "Square" in the example on the left --, but I'd like to be able to add more metadata to the bottom, such as the genre and a custom field value -- "JRPG" and "100% Completed" in the example on the right:

Default:              Desired:  

It would be even better if it could be customized on a per-console basis, so that some consoles might use one custom field value, and other consoles could use a different custom field value, for instance. 

Is this already possible in the default Launchbox theme, or do I need to make an entire custom theme for it? If it requires making a custom theme, is there a simple way to just copy-paste the default theme folder, rename it to something different, change one or two lines of code, and then just use that new custom theme in Launchbox? It seems like a small enough change that breaking out the community theme creator would be overkill.

You would need to custom code a theme. You can just copy the Default theme folder and then paste and rename it to whatever you want. You can then edit that new theme. Go into the \Views folder and edit the respective xaml file. Its been a while since I have messed with LB themes but the spot you want might be in the BoxesContentView.xaml file. I am not 100%.

Cool, I'll take a look there and see what I can find. Thanks!
