- Added customized layouts for the displays menu/system selection menu
- Added ability to set image origin in scripts (for centre rotations etc)
- [rpi] Issue #266 - Fix for keypresses being cached w/ sfml-pi build
- Added layout options configuration for 'Displays Menu' layout
- Fixed "Toggle Layout" when used on the displays menu layout
What this means... a real Displays Menu! So long to issues with a keyboard hooked up!
Great work!

? is there any documentation on implementing start menu's
and scripting a game console selection menu?
were does one start...is what i need to know.

You probably won't see any documentation until there is a new public release. You can read about it here https://github.com/mickelson/attract/commit/4e8cc1b49d4acd340e63c4a483e520e632a9b928
Basically, compile Attract-Mode from source and you will get the new features. Once you have the new version you can go to Config-->Display-->Display Menu Options to choose your settings. Artwork for the Display Menu goes in ./attract/menu-art/.
-
Apologies if this is a poor question....
But, is there to update this for the PI image. . ? Or, does this need to wait for folks like Floob to release an update...?
-
Yes, this works on the Pi (or any other system that Attract-Mode supports).
-
Sorry. Typo'd my question.
How do you update the Pi Version to get obtain this...?
-
As I mention above just compile Attract-Mode.
For the Pi you can use
cd ~
mkdir develop
cd develop
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mickelson/attract attract
cd attract
make USE_GLES=1
sudo make install
cd ~
rm -r -f develop

On a side note: the buildbot that used to build nightlies for Windows & OSX seems to be down (latest build is from september), do you have plans to restore it? Just asking, if not, I'll try to cross-compile from a VM :)
-
I'm not sure what is going on with the buildbot... we'll have to track down h0tw1r3 to see if he can figure out how to fix it.
My plan is to get version 2.2 with these new features and more out in the next few days...

Fantastic news! Looking forward to seeing the real displays menu being implemented :)

how do you find this folder ./attract/menu-art/

how do you find this folder ./attract/menu-art/
That depends on your OS.
Linux (remember that any folder that starts with a "." will be hidden by default in Linux)
/home/<username>/.attract/menu-art
Windows
<path to attractmode install>\menu-art

I'm trying to access it on the rasberry pi
-
I'm trying to access it on the rasberry pi
It runs on Linux so the folder is hidden by default.
Here's the path
/home/pi/.attract/menu-art
To see it, exit to a command prompt (or use SSH) and type
cd ~
ls -a
P.S. If you don't know Linux and want to access Attract-Mode files from you Windows computer you can look at this thread http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=821.msg6288#msg6288
