MaLa - moving page up/down thru games list (like advmenu)?
« on: November 18, 2007, 10:52:24 pm »
As I go about setting up my MaLa games list, one thing that I am missing from my first cab running advmenu, is the ability to go page up / page down in my games list by moving the joystick left / right.

Is there a way to make MaLa do this? I've replaced the left / right movements so that it skips to prev / next letter of the alphabet, rather than prev / next emulator, but I'd prefer the feel of advmenu with its page down / page up functionality...

If anyone knows if this is possible...

Cheers,
Anubis.

Thanks jrmitch.

I must admit, I did not try x up / x down to see if they were page up / page down controls.

Then again, maybe in a future release of MaLa that should be changed so it actually reads "page up / page down"... would make alot more sense...
