Thank you, this is for a pinball setup and those programs require the monitors to be in landscape in the Windows Display settings.

Help / Scrolling Text for 270º Dispaly

Is there a way to use scrolling text for a vertical layout?
I tried using direction and angle callouts, but that only turned the individual letters.

Help / A way to show previous and next playlist?
« on: January 25, 2021, 11:56:31 PM »
I have this layout work expect for one aspect. In a normal menu, you see two games previous to your selection and after your selection, a standard wheel. is there a way to also do this with playlist? see what playlist will appear by pressing either the next or previous playlist buttons?
see attached.

Not so familiar with Windows scripts, but technically you can create another batch file, which runs your scripts first (pre-execution), then starts the emulator, and optionally runs something else after the emulator has exited (post-execution).

Then just set up a RetroFE launcher to run your batch file.
thanks, i wasn't sure if you could pass rom info into a batch file, i'll play around with it, thanks.

General Discussion & Help / exit steam on game exit
« on: January 01, 2021, 10:55:07 PM »
I need to use the below parameter to launch a Steam game, but I can't seem to exit the app and get back to RetroFE, it needs to also exit Steam, and thought on how to do this?
Code: [Select]
arguments = -offline -applaunch 442120 -table_%ITEM_NAME%
executable = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe

http://retrofe.nl/SMF/index.php?topic=7.msg4300#msg4300 is 10.7 and since it's open source anyone can compile it at any time.
Thanks for the info!

Is there a way to add a video background to a second screen?
Code: [Select]
<video src="video/dust.mp4" alpha="1" y="center" x="center" height="1080" width="1920" monitor="1" layer="18"></video>I was able to add a reloadableVideo, but not a static video.
Code: [Select]
<reloadableVideo type="third" mode="Layout" monitor="2" alpha="1" y="center" x="center" xOrigin="center" yOrigin="center" height="stretch" width="stretch" layer="9"></reloadableVideo>

General Discussion & Help / Web Controlled Playlist?
« on: December 11, 2020, 12:04:29 AM »
We do weekly high-score contest though discord. I was wondering if there was anyway to store a game/rom information on the web that a retrofe playlist could access? I know the layout is done though XML so maybe it could access the web.

I'd like to create a playlist that had a single game/rom link that I can change though the web. The game/rom would live on the users computer, I would control what appears in this playlist.

thanks.
