#2 "Option to remove unused library game fields from Library Manager"



Does this mean that you can hide unpopulated Platforms, for instance? Crow

Administrator #3 Not hide, but completely remove them. Option to hide them will be added in Playnite 8. anon_me

#4 "Option to use new banner style backgrounds for Steam games metadata"



Where can I find this option? Poked around but must be looking in the wrong areas. darklinkpower

It's not that nobody voted for it, but more people voted for other things. There's a ton of requested features and some are simply going to get implemented later rather then sooner. However, Fullscreen mode specifically is getting more use lately, so I will be putting more effort into it this year. It's not that nobody voted for it, but more people voted for other things.

Fullscreen mode is very good now. It's like having a console now.



You might also want to look into adding a Wishlist section (for desktop mode) like what Razer does with their client.







I pretty much only use their client for getting discounts and switching my power profile before starting a game. I'm sure they get a commission somehow. Fullscreen mode is very good now.
