UI: Actions Menu
Welcome to UI → Actions Menu Updates!
This is a visual enhancement of the Actions menu (and its options) and some other changes.
DEFAULT ACTIONS:
- Added: Missing menu locales
-
Added: Dialog titles to "Install Firmware" and "Install Keys":
- Firmware: "Choose either an .XCI or a .ZIP File to install firmware from" and "Choose a FOLDER to install firmware from"
- Keys: "Choose a .KEYS file to install keys from" and "Choose a FOLDER to install keys from"
-
Changed: "Install Firmware" and "Install Keys" submenu
- The submenus used to repeat the main menu name (like "Install Firmware -> Install Firmware (XCI or ZIP)"). Now, they only show the option or folder (for example, "Install Firmware -> XCI or ZIP"), making it simpler and avoiding repetition.
-
Tools → Mii Editor
- Removed: Tooltip
- Changed: Loading text from "miiEdit" to locale-dynamic "Mii Editor"
-
Tools → Trim XCI Files
- Renamed: "Trim XCI Files" to "XCI Trimmer"
- Added: Tooltip to explain "XCI Trimmer" (clarifying for confused users)
-
General Enhancement (see images below for comparison):
- Changed: Window title from "XCI File Trimmer" to "XCI Trimmer"
- Fixed: Overall layout/spacing/buttons
- Fixed: Counting show (could show "175 of 5 Title(s) Selected" - when only 5 could be selected, or "Trimming 5 Titles" when only 1 was being trimmed.
- This was initially fixed in the logic. However, after further consideration, "Trimming {0} Title(s)" was simplified to just "Trimming...".
- Fixed: Listbox Save/Saved cutoff in some locales
- The column width/alignment cut off "Save/Saved" in some languages. Alignment was adjusted column-wise.
- Fixed: Tooltip border appearing on status (Trimmed, Untrimmed, etc.)
- The tooltip text only shows on errors. But hovering over the status still displayed an empty black rectangle (the tooltip's space), because the visibility applied only to the StackPanel, which itself was inside the tooltip. This was fixed to target just the tooltip.
- Improved: Bottom savings display
- Instead of showing "Potential Savings" and "Actual Savings", the bottom part now shows "Total Savings" (the savings you've done) AND the amount you can still save (using Potential–Actual Savings).
IN-GAME ACTIONS:
- Added: Missing menu locales
-
Added: Shortcut for "Simulate Wake-up Message"
- Though few games use it, an in-game shortcut should be provided for users who regularly use it.
-
Improved: Amiibo Window (images below):
- Improved: Wording/Structure/Layout for Classic and New UIs (using FlushControls)
- Increased: Amiibo image size
- Fixed: Incorrect Amiibo images could be shown when selecting "Show Incompatible Amiibo" in certain instances
- Adjusted: Dialog title when loading Amiibo from .BIN
- Renamed: "Stop Emulation" to "Stop" (like how "Pause Emulation" was renamed to "Pause")
- Added: Shortcut for "Manage Cheats"
OTHER:
-
Application Menu → Check & Trim XCI File
- Renamed: Option to "Trim XCI" (the option already performs a check regardless)
- Added: IsVisible parameter to "Trim XCI"
- Instead of displaying the option for all game file formats, it is now hidden and only shows up for .XCI's. It is still enabled only if an XCI can be trimmed (aka if a file/game is an XCI, there will be no change - this change only applies to other files).
- This was similarly implemented with "Compatibility Entry" option
- Instead of displaying the option for all game file formats, it is now hidden and only shows up for .XCI's. It is still enabled only if an XCI can be trimmed (aka if a file/game is an XCI, there will be no change - this change only applies to other files).
- Changed: Value formatting for "File Size", "Game Size", and "Space Savings"
- Rounded: Numbers to simplify display, avoiding long decimals and large digits (math still works)
- Added & Fixed: Some locales for "View" menu options
- Adjusted: Formatting of "XCI Trimming Status" on status bar
-
Adjusted: Border around launching games/Mii Editor
- When you were launching files without icons, there would be a black border around the cartridge image (didn't look that good). Now, this border has been removed. It doesn't change too much visually. Here are the before/after images for the Mii Editor loading screen, showing the changes:
