Game list text aligning

Post by naquaada »

Hello,

is there a way to align the text field? Since 1.5 the font style has changed, maybe some function was built in for this.

I'm sorting my games with the name on the left side and the infos on the right side, so f.e. 'Monkey Island............DOS/Deutsch' (The dots are standing for empty space) This looks better than hanging everything in brackets. To get it to the right side, I have to use a lot of spaces, and it doesn't look perfect because the letters are in different width, so it's never exact.

Some kind of format style would be useful, f.e. \>\ as marker. So the upper example would be 'Monkey Island\>\DOS/Deutsch'.

There is currently no plan for this. You might want to create a feature request for it though.
