        @lilbud Is it possible to get a "no Meta" option added to the theme so it just shows the Games list and Box art without the developer, released and description data?

        Thanks :)

          @Wolverine1977 It is possible, I haven't done it though. Was never in the plans, but i'll look into it.

              Apologies for the stupid question but how do you toggle between showing the Xbox and PS controller help buttons? I can't seem to figure it out.

                @WylieCoyote In the 'config.xml' file. Change letters.xml to symbols.xml

                  @lilbud Many thanks for the prompt response. I've searched the entire image using WinSCP and I have no config.xml file to edit??

                      @lilbud Well, there's my problem. In /etc/emulatationstation/themes I have 'darkswitch' and 'lightswitch' and no es-theme-switch. Apologies, I suspect I'm referring to a completely different theme. Noted github link at the top of the thread, will download try again.

                        @lilbud All working perfectly (once I figured out how to change permissions on the config.xml). Many thanks for your excellent theme and apologies for the oversight on my part.

                          Hello, so I saw a video on youtube about that theme and decided to download it in my RetroPie, this theme is very awesome but when I installed that theme it doesn't have the icons that I saw in the video, how can I add these icons?.Screenshot_20190410-172803_YouTube.png

                            @natanpi That ain't my theme. That one was made by someone else (can't think of the name off the top of my head) who didn't realize there was an existing one already.

                            Mine should be labelled under lilbud on the downloader.

                            I don't have plans to add those icons currently.

                                  @lilbud Is it possible to port your theme to BATOCERA OS? They forked the RetroPie ES and your theme is ideal for small devices!
                                  As last step it can be integrated into their theme downloader

                                    @cyperghost Didn't they implement in their ES fork some kind of compatibility with the RetroPie fork, so the themes used in RetroPie would work also in Batocera ?

                                      Yes ... it works.
                                      Therefore I kindly ask for permission to fork.

                                      But on my second "test" system is a 7" DSI display with BATOCERA on it. And there the theme lacks. I've reenabled the help system and need to set bottom and top lines.

                                      No worries - RetroPie is still my main system ;)

                                        I know this may sound dumb, but how do switch to the dark theme?

                                          @Adolfo Re-read the first post - you need to edit the theme.xml file.

                                            @mitu I opened the theme.xml file but don't know what to edit exactly.
