Where can you change the position of the Games Available in a theme

tanstaafl

@hurricanefan Thanks, I saw that part of the code, but it didn't seem to be connected to the 'games available' in any way that I could ascertain. I will give it a try.

@tanstaafl Try changing the <pos> value to something else to see if Games Available moves in your theme. :)

@hurricanefan I kinda figured that, but it made no difference no matter how I set the pos. Somebody has to know where in the code that is set.. I would hate to think I need to systematically change ever <pos> tag to see what happens.

@tanstaafl The answer that @HurricaneFan posted is correct. Can you post your xml so we can see if something else is wrong?

@tanstaafl After you change the values make sure you do two things. 1. Save the change. 2. Reload emulationstation. As previously said this is most definitely the element in the xml that controls the "games available" text.

@jonnykesh I understand you need to save them after modifying, I also didn't just reload es, I rebooted the system. Several times. Tried three different themes, tried various <pos> settings, never any change so I am obviously doing something wrong.

Here is the code I am attempting to modify:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<theme>
<formatVersion>4</formatVersion>

<feature supported="carousel">
<view name="system">
<carousel name="systemcarousel">
<type>vertical</type>
<pos>0 0.020</pos>
<size>0.200 0.890</size>
<logoScale>1.1</logoScale>
<logoSize>0.15 0.180</logoSize>
<color>00000000</color>
<maxLogoCount>7</maxLogoCount>
</carousel>

  <text name="systemInfo">
     <pos>0.4 0.02</pos>
     <backgroundColor>00000000</backgroundColor>
     <color>FFFFFF</color>
     <fontPath>./_inc/fonts/OpenSans-Bold.ttf</fontPath>
 <fontSize>0.025</fontSize>
</text>

</view>
</feature>

@tanstaafl What version of Emulationstation are you using?

jonnykesh

@tanstaafl Here is an xml from one of mine. You seem to be missing the <size> tag. I don't see how that would change things but add it and see.

			<text name="systemInfo">
				<pos>0.010 0.637</pos>
				<size>0.98 0.050</size>
				<backgroundColor>ffffff00</backgroundColor>
				<color>ffffffcc</color>
				<fontPath>./_resources/Roboto-Regular.ttf</fontPath>
				<fontSize>0.03</fontSize>
			</text>

@hurricanefan Ha, good point. Which version of ES? It is a relatively new addition.

tanstaafl

@hurricanefan Well, it seems you had the answer all the time. I am not sure what was causing it, but I restored an image I had made of my SD, made the change and it now works. Not a clue. I had checked the permissions, moved, copied, spit at it, everything I could think of and it didn't affect the screen. Did a restore, and viola!! It works.

Thanks to everyone for your help!!
