      @ectoone There is no scrolling animation at the moment, it's on the todo list.

      Do you know any theme actually using the carousel wheel ?

      Grid view wiki

        @a12c4 I'm not sure if there is one available to download, i have at least one that had a wheel on the side but it might have been a mockup. The only other ones I can think of are the ones i showed here (scroll down to see the Metroid version) but since horizontal_wheel wasn't available at that time i stopped working on it.
        I also don't know if enough people even know that we have the option to do curved carousels to implement it.
        I got an crazy idea for a graphical wheel that would probably look awesome if it would appear on system and detailed view. Maybe i can find some time to create it at least for system view at do a mockup of detailed view. Although there is one thing i want to do, which i'm actually not sure that it would work. And i also might have some issues with my poor graphic editing skills. :D

          Space Oddity is one I know of off hand that is available through retropie-setup. I think there may be a couple of others.

            Videos that can be placed into a folder and used as a screensaver. I don't have scraped videos for my games but would love to use mp4 videos without sound as a screensaver for my system. Just a wish for the list, and I appreciate all the work that has gone into Retropie!

              @ckidwell If you don't have videos for your games, you could place your screensaver videos in the images folder and name them like they belong to existing roms (romname-video.mp4). Then they will be used for the screensaver.

                  Adding Stroke/Outline to Textlist is a huge please from me. I'm creating a theme with a textlist (colour white) that overlaps an image, if there is white is the image then the textlist becomes unviewable.

                  In general I think a stroke/outline on md_ objects would come in handy for a lot of themers, give it more of a ummf when displaying any data on screen. Little bit of spice :)

                    It would be great a graphic load/save state indicator with pics. When you press select + left or right on Retroarch, you could get a small box on the bottom with the actual slot and the preview of the saved states and the empty ones.

                      @chicuelo great idea!

                      Your theme is also great chicuelo.
                      Over the years i only used two themes: Carbon NoMeta and yours. Thank you for that 👍
