Universal layout fixes and detail screen polish β€” focused on making every screen work perfectly on both 4:3 and 16:9 handhelds.

Highlights

  • Crystal-clear focus indicators β€” white borders and glow replace accent-color-only styling, so you always know where the D-pad focus is, regardless of system theme color.
  • Phantom focus eliminated β€” previously, the download button, favorite icon, and first screenshot all appeared focused simultaneously. Now only the actually focused element lights up.
  • Universal 4:3 / 16:9 layout β€” 9 overlays and dialogs replaced hardcoded pixel constraints with screen-relative values. No more overflow on narrow screens, no wasted space on wide ones.
  • Variant picker redesign β€” compact tag pills with region flags, marquee-scrolling filenames for long ROM names, wider overlay, and D-pad left/right blocked to prevent focus leaking to the background.
  • Action buttons anchored β€” Download/Delete and icon buttons now stick to the bottom of the left column in landscape, consistent across all detail views.

Change Log

Improved:

  • Detail screen focus visibility β€” white borders and dual-layer glow (white inner + accent outer) on all focusable elements
  • Correct focus tracking β€” sub-widgets only highlight when their section is active
  • Action buttons anchored to bottom of left column in landscape layout
  • Variant picker β€” wider (55%), compact tag pills, marquee filenames, D-pad L/R consumed
  • Other Versions section β€” shows only RomM/IGDB siblings, no longer duplicates local variants
  • Universal 4:3 and 16:9 layout β€” screen-relative clamp() values across description overlay, game detail overlay, exit dialog, system picker, shelf picker, game list overlay, system selector, quick menu, and detail screen cover column
  • MarqueeText shared widget β€” ticker-scroll for long text in version cards and sibling entries

Fixed:

  • Variant picker focus restore after returning from download queue
  • Icon button resize on focus β€” removed labels that caused multi-line wrapping on 4:3 screens
  • LanguageBadges overflow in version cards

Internal:

  • Extracted MarqueeText to lib/widgets/marquee_text.dart
  • isSectionFocused parameter threaded through ActionButtonsRow, ScreenshotsCarousel, OtherVersionsSection
