Appearance

Change how the interface looks: UI scale, menu layouts, colors (with live swatches) and animations.

UI scale

Size of text and menus across the whole UI.

Choice	What it does
Default	Follows the device and shows which scale that is: Default (Large) on the Brick, Default (Small) on the Brick Pro and Smart Pro S.
Small	Smaller, shows more rows.
Large	Larger, shows fewer rows.

• Settings redraws at the new scale straight away.
• The main menu, the other tools and the in-game menus pick it up the next time they start. For the main menu, that is as soon as you leave Settings.
• The main menu's tab row, page titles and hint bar keep their size at every scale.
• The Nintendo 64 in-game menu uses the same scale.

Show or hide the START search button hint on the main menu tabs. Hiding it only removes the hint: pressing START on a tab still opens search.

Show menu animations

Enable or disable menu animations.

Show menu transitions

Enable or disable the animated slide transitions between screens.

Bootlogo

Change the device boot logo.

1. Scroll through the images with left/right.
2. Press A to apply one. The device reboots to show it.

The NX Redux mark is the default logo. The previous NextUI logo is still in the list.

Reset to defaults

Resets all options on this page, and on the Layouts page, to their default values.

Options that moved or were removed

The main menu redesign replaced several older options:

Old option	Now
Show Emulators, Show Collections, Show Tools	Consoles tab, Collections tab, Tools tab in Layouts
Show Recents	Removed. Your last game is Home's Continue card, and the Game Switcher lists the rest.
Game art visible / style / type / width / corner radius, Use folder background for ROMs	Removed. Each layout places the art itself.
Show folder names at root	Removed. Names always show.
