[Feature Request] Toggle to enable full Details in Grid View #6

Open jedinjapan opened 2 years ago

Enhancement: Add a toggle or checkbox in the ThemeModifier to use the full Details Info view when in Grid mode, for a hybrid view that takes advantage of high DPI or Ultrawide displays.

This has been done in Playnite 8.0 themes that were modified, and to the Helium theme already through a fork located here: https://github.com/XenorPLxx/Helium-Enhanced-Grid-Mod Playnite 8.0 edited themes: https://playnite.link/forum/thread-311.html

It is a popular request, but limiting it to a forked build seems doomed to have it fall behind in time, and no such edit has been made for the Stardust theme.

Unfortunately the change is not possible. That change in layout is a complete change in the layout that is simply not possible to achieve without fully changing the layout definition and it's not possible to have both at the same time. The only way is to create a fork that makes only that change. I'm aware that forks will inevitably fall behind in fixes, updates, changes and features but I can't personally work on a fork, I have my hands full with all themes and extensions.

I'll leave the issue open so other people can see it in case they ask.

Thank you for the response. I expected that may be the case, however disappointing it may be from the user side it makes perfect sense.

I am a fan of the extended versions myself and may be using that primarily, but I do want to emphasize just how excellent your base skin is, and I hope to be able to use it in some form or another for a long while to come.
