Title: Default Snap & Marquee
Post by: mike boss on April 30, 2012, 08:48:45 am

My MaLa memory seems to be failing me so I thought I'd ask for help.
If I design a default "snap" & "marquee" for use in layouts when no actual snap & marquee are found can I have it display ?

I could have sworn in the past this was done on a layout, possibly the DK inspired layout available from John's Arcade. I think I've even done it for marquee (not snap). But for a future project I'd like to make my own custom designs and have MaLa display these images when no actual marquee or snap exists for a particular game.

Any help would be great.

Thanks all

I think I've solved it.
Looked on the MaLa wiki.
I'll test when I go home.

Mike, I did it by making a generic marquee and screenshot part of my background image, but I'm interested if you can set a default like you're talking about.  let us know how it goes.

You can. In MalaLayout right-click on the Snap/Title/Marq box you placed on your layout, go to Properties and choose a Default image.
