      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.

              @Adolfo where it says "light.xml", change that to say "dark.xml"

                @lilbud that's what I tried looking for but I don't find a line that says that. I'm using notepad++ and tried searching for it and didn't find it that way either.

                    @Wolverine1977 That would be awesome, I find it's best for a CRT-Screen only to have the Games list and a BigImage.

                          Hello,

                          I like this theme very well, very good work.
                          is it possible to choose a background picture instead of just one color?

                            @Gremko I guess so. You'd have to heavily modify the theme to do so though.

                                    @dugo3number2 is only if Xbox Buttons are set, go with Playstation Buttons, at least for me.

                                      @lilbud No, nothing. @Gremko I will try PS buttons, although I have an Xbox controller.

                                        Update: @Gremko It worked with PS buttons. @lilbud It is just the main menu that is affected.

                                          @dugo3number2 I'll try and look at it on my phone. I'm away from a computer until next week.

                                            @dugo3number2 I found the error, it is in the file letters.xml

                                            replace:
                                            <path> ./../ assets / buttons / Xbox_Buttons_system.svg </ path>

                                            with:
                                            <Path> ./../ assets / buttons / Xbox_Buttons_System.svg </ path>
