Title: Game layouts
Post by: zestful on May 20, 2023, 04:05:12 PM
Could we get the ability to add per game layouts?

I'd like to be able to do custom animations per game, however currently at a collection level it takes a lot of work and bloat should I say, with code being shared across the collection, when it's only used for 1 game animation.

It would be good if we could have complete control of a layout at a per game layout if possible?

It's been under consideration for a while, but I'd either have to add in a delay before activating it or it will really slow down the front-end. Program wise I don't think it would even take a huge change, except that a game specific layout needs to be exited whenever you switch to the next/previous game.

Yeah that's fair then would rather keep a snappy front end
