Need help regarding font size

[bmanhard]

Hey, I'm a paid user of game-ex and have been editing my templates a bit. I'm running into a problem with the font running off the screen and being unable to read what the games name is. I'll link a picture to show what I'm talking about.

I want the full name's of the game to appear without having to rename them out of the no-intro format. The correct full names are as follows.

Donkey Kong Country 2 - Diddy's Kong Quest (USA) (En,Fr) (Rev 1)

Donkey Kong Country 2 - Diddy's Kong Quest (USA) (En,Fr)

As you can see the end of the names are cut off. I tried turning down "font size" in the gameex video options but it didn't do anything. Any help getting it to either word wrap or making the font smaller in order to force it to fit would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

I figured out how to partially do what I wanted. If you open up the theme with the theme editor and select the list section and then edit the "font" you can change the font for the entire thing. I would be interested to know if it is possible to change ONLY the font of the games themselves. It would be even better if their was an option to force the font to the correct size or have it word-wrap if it was over-flowing off of the screen, like in my example above.

If these things are currently impossible is it possible to see an option like this in a future release?

When you have a feature request, it is best to put in the Features Request pinned topic so that Tom (Developer of GameEx) is more likely to see it. It can get lost here. This feature has been requested and has not yet been implemented. The feature request can be found here under the Menu section in request number 10. It is a great feature that I would also love to see. As far as your font issue, I'm sure one of our theme experts will jump in and can help you there.

Just my opinion, but when a new user doesn't know if something is possible, I think it's best for them to ask in a new thread first. If it turns out that the option/feature isn't available they can then proceed by adding a feature request in the pinned thread. There's so much in GameEx at this point that it would be pretty easy to miss a feature (or not know of a common work-around). But yes, it's nice if users look in the feature request thread to see if what they want is already requested.

Thanks for jumping in and making it seem like I meant that in a bad way. I did not have that intention. I simply was pointing them in the direction so that they know where to find things.

No problem!
