Ahh, OK thanks for that. i didn't know that was the case. Not too much I can do then. Well thanks for replying anyway.

OK will have a look, didn't even think of looking there, many thanks. I will crack on.

@bigbellyman worked like a dream . I approached it slightly different. Copied the theme I wanted to edit to my pc and edited it all there and then copied it over no problems.

@Zachariel Ahh, okay. Yeah I've never used marquees so I never knew that. Good to know!

@hermit Thank you sir! You are my hero today @mitu Good to know! woulda saved me some time knowing that

@mitu I have to apologize, as I discovered that my hasty assumption was wrong! You can filter by favorites = false, which makes it much easier to go through a list and catch faves that you missed. :)

i found out how to fix the problem see- <removed>, but thanks anyways guys

Another nice feature would be to cycle different pictures, like screenshot / flyer / cabinet.

Actually, you can use emulationstation for windows as a theme editor. I think that it would be very hard to adjust the objects dragging them with the mouse cursor and people will end up using text editor anyways.

update: removed CRT theme renamed "HD" theme added grid view the CRT only theme is now unneeded so I removed it and instead renamed the "HD" one and added grid view.

@clyde Thank you very much for your kind words. I actually do have a couple of other ideas I'd like to work on. I'll be sure to post them if I do!

@haleice there is no variable that can be used for game images. You are limited to the media files specified in your gamelist.xml. Variables are only available for system related images or text.

I was able to edit other gamelist.xml files in each individual roms folders and modify their content. Why would this be unique and not have those values shown? I would at least hope to see the xml have some sort of tag or comment. Then I can go in there and remove them. Is there a way to reset it back to before I scraped it?

@andrewh I know it is not what you asked for, but I saw a thread some time ago where someone used Attract Mode, as there is apparently a decent vertical theme.

Oh my god! Yes, there is! None of them are installed, but I can install the ones I want! Thanks so much, you guys!

Hi @A12C4, I been following this thread and really love the work you're doing here, can't wait to see the results. It will give the theme makers some awesome flexibility!

@Supersquared I decided to switch over to try out your enhancements but I'm having a few issues. For some reason the arcade.svg is not transparent in the middle of the A,R, and D (they are filled in black, and also the arcade cabinet's screen). Also my marquees no longer show up properly at the top of the arcade cabinet when im browsing games in the arcade section, only the default .png shows up now.
