System Themes
« on: January 01, 2017, 10:51:22 AM »
How do you do different themes when selecting the Systems in the main menu on a RetroPie?  I'd like to just use the HS ones.  Not when selecting the game from within the systems, but the actual System first.  Can you do themes like you can in HS?  It just doesn't look very good scrolling through your systems, and each one shows an Arcade in the background playing the snaps, specially with handheld or home consoles lol.

Sorry if this question had been asked already, I searched a bit to see if there was anything, and couldn't find an answer.

Configure-->Displays-->'Display Menu' Options-->Menu Style / Layout = <whatever you like best>

Yeah but I think that is just for one plain menu.  In the main menu switching from Sega 32x to Sega Genesis, it will change the background and where the video is played from etc...  I figured out how to do it when adding the media folder and Hyperspin, so I guess it works that way.  Not sure if it works with the other Attract Mode Layouts/Themes though.

Yes, it works with most layouts but you need to put your media in the "menu-art" folder.
