Themes / Layout Help!

« on: April 18, 2023, 02:06:21 PM »

So i have tried and can't figure how to edit or create a layout.nut. I am trying to make a simple theme with just the games list and video snaps and marquees. I was wondering if Someone could help me create a layout.nut. I would also like it to scale from from 720p to 1080p. This is what i would like it to look like.  With snaps, marquees and the games list with black text with blue for the game selected. I would like the blue selected game text to be larger. Here is a image of what i want it to look like, and if anyone wants to help here is the background image download. https://mega.nz/file/IjZizL6R#8nr64qz9gVNJ52oB56c9gdWkYXhWWlmk25vBzdG7Xik

So i have mame version .139 and it plays all the games i play fine. I have been using retroarch with mame 2010 because it saves hi scores and has nonag.
