vsilvalopes Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Hi Folks !I've running into some trouble using the Theme Editor.I'm building a new theme, wich basicaly will use two custom layouts.One for all the emulators, and one for the other GameEx sections, like music, videos, pictures etc.The problem is, when I mark in the theme editor the option "Custom Emulator Layouts" or the option "Custom Module Layouts" GameEx starts messed up.So, If for example, if I mark "Custom Emulator Layouts" the emulator section (snes in the case) became all messed up.But as soon I uncheck it, the layout return to its normal behavior.The same happens with I check the option "Custom Module Layouts" , the start page, even after I adjust it in theme editor, cames all messed up within GameEx.I've saw that theme editor create in the theme directory lots of *.ini files, when I check those options. each ini file is for a section within GameEx, and I've checked the files and theme editor, and the coordinates are equal. So theme editor saves the ini files correctly.Anybody can help ? Thanks in advance!Attached some screenshots.Theme Editor Screens :Theme running within GameEx : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myghalloween Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I've the same trouble, but I found no solution for now.Someone to help us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I would recommend that you zip your theme.ini file(s) along with some of your custom screen images and upload them here so we can take a closer look. To be honest, I have not played much with custom module layouts so will probably need to enlist the help of some of the "big guns" (Tom and Headkaze) to assist.

Myghalloween Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Hi Draco,I hope that Tom and Headkaze pass by.Here are some screen :"Customlayoutsmodul" uncheckedHere are some screen with"Custom layout module"checked. I have not changed in "GameEx Theme Editor"And if you resize, everything is normal:If I make changes to the layout with "Custom layout module" checked, the same thing is happening and no change appears even by resizeThx for help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Again - copies of your theme.ini after you make the changes will be needed for testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco1962 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Please be patient! There may be some more pressing issues on Tom's plate at this time. Keep in mind - this is a hobby for him as well. He has as much right to enjoy holiday and time away from this as the rest of us if not more.

Myghalloween Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hello Tom,the problem is partly but not completely resolved.When I check "Custom layouts modul",GameEx in windowed mode works best because it is now possible to change the position of an element in the module without changing the others, but it is always necessary to resize the windows to each new page (each input or output in a module).By cons in Full Screen mode, nothing changes.
