My Centipede Theme MaLa layout.
« on: September 20, 2007, 06:34:27 pm »
I was messing around with the MaLa layout editor to give the front-end a nice matching theme to the cabinet (it's a repro Centipede).   Opinions, suggestions and/or questions welcome.

A few things:
- The "mushrooms" on the bottom scroll.
- The instructions are set-up for my button configuration.
- I was going to use the video snaps but found that even after tinkering with the settings, it slowed down the menu scrolling a little too much for my liking.

If you want to use videos, they will work fine if you set a short (maybe 1sec) delay for them.

Very nice layout, very clean.

Well I say let's get out there and TW*T it!

One good knee in the happy-sacks and it'll go down like any other smegger!

Thanks.

I did set the delays but I'm not too happy that if I don't scroll before the delay, there's a pause in scrolling.  It's one of those things I intend to play around with a little more.  Doesn't matter - layout will look the same.  ;)

there shouldn't be a pause...you shoud be able to scroll even before the video starts.

i set it to 1 sec here i think and display still snaps under the video one... this way it always shows something.

good luck!
looking good
