Thanks for sharing your theme.

You've commented your code well, which is a huge bonus because I use a vertical screen the majority of the time.

Thanks! The display order shows option 1 at top when looking...as hoped.

Scripting / Layout Option Order
« on: March 22, 2016, 05:31:38 PM »
What determines the order of the layout options?

I have them listed in the order I want in the layout.nut file, but they aren't displayed in that order within attractmode.

This looks professional...I'm anxious to see the code for multiple line text (and its source).

Chrisvg!

Thanks for the update. Now it is working as expected...the logo is bouncing back and forth on the laptop.
I'm working on the menu options now to make it a bit more user friendly (my isometric magazine theme).

Thanks again!

local l1= PanAndScanArt("laptop",431,845, 69,43);
l1.set_start_scale(0.5);
l1.set_zoom(1.25, 0.01);
l1.set_animate(::AnimateType.HorizBounce,0.2);

I did a git pull and built from source: attract -v Attract-Mode v2.0.0-rc3-1 (Linux, SFML 2.1 +FontConfig +SWF)
Image attached...

When the image reaches left border, it doesn't bounce back.

If you choose horizontal, is it supposed to bounce back and forth? It seems to stop when using Horiz when it reaches edge.

Themes / Fanart/Isometric Magazine Theme
« on: March 19, 2016, 05:36:49 PM »
Choose between Fanart & Isometric magazine styles:

*Please note, this needs the updated pan/scan v1.2 from this thread for the laptop screensaver to work correctly. http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=624.0

This is designed for portrait/vertical displays. Drafted at 768x1366.

Credits: Verion for the cabinet and font, Arcadebliss for history display, Chrisvg for pan/scan, and everyone else that is making this frontend.

Fanart layout includes:: Two strip wheels with selected art in the background, and Attract Mode Monthly logo.
Isometric layout includes: laptop screen, marquee, cab screen, picture frame, posters 1-4, angled monitor, bar code, left wheel, mascot, and Retro Gamer logo.

Please let me know if you find any bugs. If you want to use the history.dat feature it's in the options...it basically is just an overlay near the bottom that displays history info...from the popup script found in the forums.

ToDo: Logo for the shirt, genre placement, better code commenting... I'm going here for some inspiration: https://archive.org/details/electronic-games-magazine

I don't either, but am learning...it's all about how we choose to spend the limited amount of time we have...

When I get stuck I either move on to another project, and return fresh...or never return...

Agreed. Would that not be possible with a field in the rom list?

How much text can be in the field [EXTRA] from the romlist? How difficult would it be to just add a field to the romlist?

There should be no need to add the module into objects now...at least it was included when I downloaded and built from source.
