THANK YOU! good update!

How do I get rid of the transparent buttons here?


I already did the following:
- removed the extra metadata exteions, both video extensions
- edited the theme with ThemeModifier (Visibility of icons in details to hidden, both)

It is a great theme, but these white buttons confuse me, as they do nothing if I click them. They should be hidden, if the respective extensions needed are missing or disabled and provide at least an explanation what they do.

At least, what they are for?
I get that the on the right side have something to do with the video extension but what does the on/off switch do and what is this squashed ellipsis with an arrow for?

Not everyone has all these extensions installed and the theme ought to have some sort of preferences window to enable / disable all this stuff as the ThemeModifier extensioin is not really that helpful if there are just sliders and (again) no explanation for people who are not really versed in the underlying theme language.

I've added a button to hide the buttons next to the Play button, it is visible on hover. The buttons can now be hidden by default by modifying the settings. I'll set them as disabled by default when Playnite 9 releases and I can be sure that everyone has the latest versions of both the theme and extensions because it will be required.

great work as always cant wait for playnite 9 to release so we can use more the left sidebar

I'm not a fan of how the video takes up the entire space of the background. Could we get an option to make it so it's only in a box in the corner, like in the thread screenshots?

ETA: Because I am a lunatic, I figured out through trial and error how to do it myself. Can post the file if anyone's interested and the creator doesn't mind.

Im actually wondering how people make the background take over the entire space of the window so the top and left areas don't have a "separated" background, like this:

[darklinkpower]

@Reameb

Go to Settings -> Appearance -> General -> Use game image background as window background

[snackerfork]

@Reameb

Go to Settings -> Appearance -> General -> Use game image background as window background

When I do that, I get two game background displays - one behind the game's detail display and another one behind the main window. To keep that from happening, I had to edit DetailsViewGameOverview.xaml and remove the theme's background display.

That's not necessary, just disable this option.


I suggest checking the different setting pages in Playnite to see what is configurable.

Oh, well, now I feel stupid

Thank you.

Great theme, thanks! What are the settings for the Metal Gear screenshot? I'd like to have my background separate from my covers. Thanks!

Why are my logos so small?

Why are my logos so small? 

The logo image is set to use one third of the width of the game details. Also if your image has a transparent area around the actual logo in the image the logo will appear smaller.

Hello !!!
First of all, thanks for the beautiful theme.
But there is a possibility that "Notes" is not displayed if there is no entry. Edit in the setting or theme?





Furthermore ... videos are only shown in full size for me ... not in a small window.
As in the first post, picture 4 (Metal Gear Solid V).
I've tried all the settings.
What am I doing wrong.



*Regards*

This has been my goto theme since the start of using Playnite as it is utterly perfect. I know Playnite 9 is only in beta so no rush but are there plans to make it compatible with the new version?
