Help: Trying to display the game's title in a text field

[j.e.f.f]

I'm currently modifying the Carbon theme to my liking... one thing I'd like to do is display the game's title as a text element amongst the rest of the meta-data. I couldn't find anything in the docs that defines this (e.g.: something like md_name or md_title).

Is this possible? I know the game's title is highlighted in the list, but I'd also like it repeated a little larger when the game is selected to better compose the metadata portion of the layout.

Forgive me if this has been answered, but I've spent the last hour searching the forum and I couldn't find anything applicable.

Thanks!

@j.e.f.f there is one with the experimental grid view but with the main ES, no. You may look at the mini lumi or pixeltft themes to see how the gamelist was changed to a single field but in short, no there isn't a game text value. just the gamelist.

Ah... that's too bad. Thanks!

@j.e.f.f
I imagine if you don't want two instances of the game name you could edit the <size> part of the gamelist making it look like this <size>0.5 0</size>
Which the only important parts is that second zero that's needed to make only 1 game name show, which you may need to tweak it depending on your text size. This should work but I haven't tried it myself. Hope this works and is what you needed.

@Syhles Thanks for the suggestion, but I still want the full list to show.

It's OK I've reworked the layout to not include the game's title amongst the meta data.

No problem, it may not have worked anyway.
