Reply To: Removing all text apart from the game list. Can it be done?

[theslx]

I’ve been playing around with this as well and I found an easy way to get rid of the text all together. I had the text running in front of the box art as well.
I solved this by changing he pos and size of each md_ element i don’t wish to see to:

<pos>0.05 0.15</pos>
<size>0.01 0.01</size>

I had to paste this about 18 times in a theme.xml for one system. It’s easily copy pasted further to other systems though.

This is my simple xml’s detailed view portion:

<view name="detailed">
