Displaying Actual Game Name in Mala

  • Hi,


    I don't know but a few words of German, my apologies.


    I want to display the full name of the selected game (exactly as it appears in the selected entry of the list) somewhere else on the screen using a Text Field - but I can't find a template that does that. If I use:


    ~g_name - This gives me what apears to be the ROM name.


    Question: Is there a string template (e.g. ~g_selected_name) I can use to get the full name of the selected game into a Text field?


    If not, could/should this be added?


    Thank you very much for your time,
    Paul Bryan


    P.S. Excellent work on Mala - I am very impressed and grateful to you for providing such an excellent frontend for free.

  • OK, sorry if I wasted any of your time - I found it.


    ~g_description


    I think this could be better named ~g_title since it is really the name/title of the game and not its description. Or it might be better to rename ~g_name to ~g_rom_name and then rename ~g_description to ~g_name - although doing so would obviously bust existing layouts that already make use of ~g_name.


    Just a thought.


    Thanks.
