      Single row (vertical) grid + md_video + md_marquee + md_image

      Be possible as this kind of setup? I know its kinda Hyperspinny but I like Hyper and I like Spinny haha :P but I'm thinking more along the lines of what other tags can placed on the same screen for example: md_image etc

        @A12C4 From which directory is the grid view pulling its data from? or can this be set?

          @paffley It's not possible with current version of the grid view for 2 reasons.

          First, the grid view only use the "<image>" tag so you would need to edit your gamelist to set all your "<image>" tag and replace it with the content of your "<wheel>" tag. This is on my todo list, I can't tell you when it will be done, but it's already planned.

          Second, the selection isn't always centered for now, when you come close to the beggining or the end it will move up or down, respectively. I planned to allow the theme to force the selector to stay centered but this is conflicting with another task : I wanted to rewrite the way the selector move to make it more natural (i.e. make the selector move freely into the grid and scroll only when the selector come close to top or bottom border). Again, this is already planned, but I can't tell you when it will happen as I have more urgent tasks.

          From which directory is the grid view pulling its data from? or can this be set?

          I think I answered this question with my first point, if not, then explain me what you want exactly because I'm not sure to understand your question.

            @A12C4 Perfect explanation thank you!

            I understand it all a bit more now and looking forward for it being merged (public). Looking forward to creating some grid based themes :)

            Thank you.
