eMixedNiteMC Theme - Questiom
Hi,
this morning I was looking for a Playnite theme that properly supports both the SuccessStory and HowLongToBeat extensions.
While searching, I read multiple comments in this subreddit saying that eMixedNiteMC is one of the best themes, so I decided to install and try it.
However, I noticed an issue with the layout:
the background image is not overlapping the game cover as it usually does in other themes.
Normally, the vertical background image is rendered behind / on top of the cover.
In eMixedNiteMC instead, the cover is shown first and the image appears below it, as if there’s no overlay at all (see screenshot).
It looks like the cover and the image are placed in two separate panels instead of being layered.
I’d like to understand:
- if this is expected behavior of the theme
- if there’s a setting to enable the overlay
- or which XAML element controls the layering (ZIndex / Grid / Panel)
I already checked the theme settings but couldn’t find anything related.
Thanks.
