Title: Is there such a thing as a theme with a details button?
Post by: Leecher on February 29, 2020, 09:14:56 PM: You press a button and the details and screenshot will show up instead of launching the game?

History plugin

Sorry. There must be some misunderstanding here.
I meant the overview and some picture snaps of the currently selected game will popup when you press a button.
I feel like the History plugin is more related to the last played or how many times a game is played.

Sorry, I'm new here.

Like I suggested above, check Arcadeflow theme to see if you like it. :)

When you select a game some icons appear. If you press down you can see the game overview.

Here's some prints:

Arcadeflow theme
Arcadeflow theme v 6.7 does it. Thanks. But I really like the theme I'm currently using, the Silky Theme; it has a large video preview, a large box art preview, and a simple text list. Do you know another theme that is closer to Silky that can do that?

More details about my theme: I actually disabled the screenshots (picture snaps) on the right side of the Silky theme, so only the video preview and box art is visible; also the text list.

No.

Side note: anyone ever use my script to convert history.dat to overview? I could update the history plugin.

I'm assuming Hyperpie2 is an updated version of Silky. Thanks, I'll check this one out, maybe I can make it work with this.

I haven't used any scripts yet. Do you have a thread/documentation/video of your history plugin. I could use it if it's not overly complicated.
