Information/Preview Pane questions/issue
Posted: Thu May 28, 2020 5:19 pm
Hello and thank you for the wonderful Negatron!
Just installed v.0.100.1 on Windows 10. I configured all paths (including Extras/Multimedia - no CHDs) and left it to complete caching. All seems ok.
1. I choose Pac-Mania, and on the right I click on the Snapshot image. The multi-preview images go away and I only see the Snapshot. I then switch to another machine. I see the Snapshot (which is fine) but it is still the Pac-Mania snaphot. No matter which game I choose, it will always show the Pac-Mania snapshot.
Is this by design? Only solution is to switch to the multi-preview and click on Snapshot again to get the updated, correct image. This happens on all categories (Title, Logo etc.) - not just Snapshot.
2. It would be nice if Negatron remembered the Artwork preview selection. So, if the user clicks on Snapshot it would be nice to remember this even after a Negatron restart. Currently, it always reverts to the multi-preview.
3. Is it possible to remove/disable individual preview items (Game Over, End etc.) or even entire tabs (Machine Internals)? It'd be a nice feature.
4. I'll second a few older requests like disabling the flip effect. I did look a bit but it seems it still cannot be disabled. About the "missing image placeholders", it would be nice if Negatron had an option to simply ignore them i.e. not display "missing" images at all and re-organize the available artwork accordingly. That would make for a very neat preview pane.
That's it, thanks again.
