TL;DR

  • This release focuses on UI/theme stability, safer theme asset rendering, and cleanup of several long-running visual regressions.
  • Theme fonts were removed. Sorry to anyone using custom font-based themes, but the layout drift and per-theme text metric mismatches were causing too many alignment and clipping problems. Stability and consistent UI behavior were prioritized here.
  • Theme-controlled line spacing, list item height, status bar height, and background visibility were also removed as live layout controls. Older theme keys remain safe and are ignored.
  • Theme image asset support has been restored with a safer texture upload path. That includes wallpapers, row textures, preview frames, help strips, and status strips.
  • RetroArch cover previews remain at readable 92x92 sizing with the corrected upload behavior that fixed the old clipped/cutoff preview issue.
