Main Options
  • Install CSS Tweaks - main layout tweaks will be applied to Steam Library
  • Box Play Button - turns the Play Bar into a floating box in the header
  • Vertical Nav Bar - turns the Navigation/Links bar into a floating vertical menu in the header, on the right side
  • Classic Layout - Vertical Nav Bar is now aligned with the game page content, with the Friends Activity/News column pushed to the bottom of the page.
  • Landscape Game Images - changes Portrait Game Images in the HOME page to Landscape ones.
  • Library Theme - applies the library theme shown in the dropdown

Actions

  • Install - Will install selected CSS and JS tweaks. If no JS options have changed, will just install the CSS tweaks (which is faster than installing both CSS and JS)
    • The app will copy the needed files to and from the steamui\skins\OldGlory folder as need.
  • Reload Config - If you have modified fixes.txt variables.css or old_glory.json manually, then Reload Config will grab these new values and update the checkboxes and values in the GUI (CSS Options + JS Options), without having to restart the GUI app. Changing files in /scss or /themes doesn't require Reload Config.

Advanced Settings:

  • Open OldGlory folder - open the OS file explorer to the main folder where OldGlory and files are located .
  • Open steamui folder - open the steamui folder within Program Files/Steam where the library files are located.
  • Apply config.css: (For Shiina's steam-library theme) This option has been added to accommodate those who might have their own config.css in [steamdir]/steamui already. If you are instead editing the config.css in themes/, clicking this button will copy config.css over to [steamdir]/steamui.
    • This may change in the future
  • Patch CSS - Patches CSS files located in steamui\css to allow a libraryroot.custom.css in steamui folder to be applied.
  • Unpatch CSS - Undos what Patch CSS does (useful when switching to using SFP/Millennium)
  • Install Location - defaults to SFP/Millennium which is the steamui\skins\OldGlory folder. steamui is steamui folder, Local just adds files to the SteamUI-OldGlory folder (good for developers)
  • Compile CSS - Just compiles the .scss files + variables.css into a libraryroot.custom.css file (good for developers)

In Settings and About:

  • Remake JS - Deletes local JS files and re-applies JS tweaks. Use this when some JS tweaks may not apply due to new JavaScript. Usually:
    • after a Steam Client update, or
    • switching between Steam Stable and Steam Beta
    • Technical details:
      • clear_js_working_files - deletes local JS files includinglibrary.js, library.beaut.js chunk~2dcc5aaf7.js chunk~2dcc5aaf7.beaut.js
      • run_js_tweaker - recreates JS files and applies JS tweaks
  • Reset - triple click to reset the steamui directory back to using default library theme. Useful if something screws up or you want to test a clean slate.

  • What's New - Changes position and display of What's New
  • Game List Zoom - Compact rows for Left Sidebar (Games List)
