Hi Everyone!
This is my first ever post in these forums and I do sincerely apologize in advance if I have missed any rules or guidelines for posting.
First off, allow me to say that Playnite is the frontend for Windows which gives a true console experience to us PC gamers! Kudos to Josef Nemec for developing it and davidkgriggs for the Playnite Modern UI theme. You guys rock!
However, there are some issues I have been encountering and some questions, and they are as follows:
Issues
When certain programs and Windows Store apps are launched in Playnite's fullscreen mode (I'm using only the Modern UI theme), they launch successfully, but a split second later, Playnite comes back in focus and I will have to Alt+Tab to get to the program or app in question. I've tried every option from "Do nothing" to "Minimize window" but to no avail. The programs and apps so far which have these issues are as follows:
Were these issues to be addressed, I believe it would make Playnite perfect!
Questions / Suggestions
Is there a way to map keyboard and controller keys to control Playnite in fullscreen mode? For example, directional and Enter keys are already controlling navigation and selection respectively with the same for directional and A / X buttons for controllers, but perhaps the Back or Esc keys and B / O buttons could be used to navigate from program, game or app details to filter presets.
I look forward to hearing from this community. Thank you so much and have a great day (or night) ahead!
