Feature request: In emulation menu (F12) add a possibility to quit the emulation only (F12+Q) #98

Closed ToKe79 closed 8 years ago

ToKe79 commented 8 years ago

Useful when using arcade launcher and controlling with game pad - for example start button opens the menu (keyboard shortcut F12) and one could choose to quit the game and return to the arcade launcher, instead of using keyboard shortcut F12+Q, which means standing up from the couch / putting the game pad down... :-) Pressing the "X" in top right corner quits the game and launcher too. So either it (the "X" in top right corner) should quit only the current emulation, or a new entry, for example below load/save state buttons (emulator control section) could be added: --emulation control--- pause load state save state quit <== here ---amiga control--- reset amiga shut down <== or here ...

Thanks

+1 for this.

Using the X button in the top right corner (in FS-UAE) is only supposed to quit FS-UAE, not FS-UAE Arcade as well. If FS-UAE Arcade quits as well, that's a bug...

@ToKe79 what OS/desktop environment are you using?

ToKe79 commented 8 years ago

@FrodeSolheim I am using Windows 10 (Home, 64bit, low end notebook, 1GB RAM). Sometimes even F12+Q causes to quit both - emulator AND arcade launcher. I observed that when I have running both - the standard launcher (minimized) AND arcade launcher - F12+Q quits to arcade launcher (quits only emulation), but pressing X in emulation quits mostly to desktop (sometimes black screen, have to close using Alt+F4), but never to arcade launcher. I am using stable version of FS-UAE.

I have been able to reproduce the problem where pressing X in FS-UAE with a joystick returns to a black screen in FS-UAE Arcade.

This should be fixed in recent FS-UAE Arcade development version.
