Attract-Mode game list questions

[felixthadog]

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum, I have recently purchased an RPi 3 board which is running Attract-Mode as the front-end (Pac-Man theme). I love the theme, but there are a couple of things I would like to change, if possible:

- Is there any way of making the game name scroll when it is highlighted? Some of the names are really long but they are truncated.
- I have noticed when scrolling through the game list that there are blank entries, both within, and between, the emulators. Is there a way to hide/remove those entries?

Cheers,
Matthew

Post the romlist you're having issues with. Also post your attract.cfg.

I managed to remove the blank entries by comparing my ROM set filenames against the LST file. However, I am still interested to know if it would be possible to get the game name to scroll when it is highlighted in Attract-Mode?

There isn't a setting for game name scrolling. I think it could be done by modifying the layout.nut file you're using. You might want to post a question like that in the "Scripting" section of the forum and maybe someone will be able to help you.
