[Theme] Clean

Thorr69

I would so love a vertical arcade version of this.

Nice simple theme. I can see this in a great way for users wanting something simple for their own RetroPie setup instead of other themes that either resemble an existing video console or a genre based theme.

I like it for it's simplicity, clean view and easy read of systems and games.

@Thorr69 I've thought about doing something like that. I have another theme in the works, and I may try the vertical layout. I'll let you know.

@tpo1990 That is precisely what I was going for. I wanted the focus to be on the system logos and game art while keeping a modern-type interface that is easy to navigate.

I added some screenshots of the 320x240 resolution. It is stripped down a little, but still has the information I felt was relevant. The theme is very close to being release ready.

@dionmunk I love it, I only suggest you to use a dark grey line instead of a white one

@dionmunk any chance of a shutdown splash to go with the theme and opening splash? looks great by the way , can't wait for the release!

dionmunk

@sergioad I'll try it out and see what I can come up with.

dionmunk

@skirocket I will put something together. Any thoughts on what you'd like to see? I'll take suggestions.

@dionmunk maybe the image going up from the opening splash and text saying goodbye thanks for playing or along them lines? so it matches. thanks again

skirocket

any update on a release date?

dionmunk

@skirocket It's just about ready!

@dionmunk Hi there! Any chance you have completed the theme and splash screen? I would really like to try it out. Thanks :)

dionmunk

@T-Pokeman It's just about there! I've been caught up with some other projects that I haven't been able to put down and have been meaning to come back to this. I just have a bit of cleanup and then I'll get it posted on Git. I'll post back here when it's ready.

Thanks for the nudge to get it done!

T.Pokeman

@dionmunk Looking forward to the release :)

dionmunk

@T-Pokeman I just put up a working release of the theme. Check it out! I'd love to know what you think.

@dionmunk I LOVE IT!! This is exactly what I was looking for!
Thank you so so much for the great work :)

I am having one slight issue though. The screen is dimming when I transition between the system title list, certain systems trigger the screen to dim. Any ideas what might be causing that?

@T-Pokeman Check the system transition style - that you can set in the UI settings - it's probably set to 'Fade'.

dionmunk

@T-Pokeman That is definitely a strange issue. I haven't seen that before. You couldn't post a video of it happening, could you?

T.Pokeman

@mitu Thanks for the suggestion. However I have the transition setting set to "instant." I have tried every transition style as well, and all yield the same result.

@dionmunk It is difficult to capture on video but I will do my best. The 3 categories that have this issue are: Nintendo, Super Nintendo, and Retropie.

The best way to see the dimming on camera is when I am transitioning between ARCADE and SNES. Let me know if the below video helps shed any light on the matter. Thanks!
