Option to save back view for flip box

Issue #2383 new
Sheree Grier created an issue

I used 'flip box' to choose the best box art in LaunchBox, but the change doesn't transfer to BigBox. When I tried using 'Flip Box' in BigBox, the change doesn't stick.

    Though I fixed my ROMs' box art by tacking (USA) onto the end, I'd still like to manually specify box art. Civ 5, for example, has an ugly "plastic DVD box" version and a better "poster/exterior box" version. I chose the "poster" version in LaunchBox, but BigBox still shows the ugly one.

    Hi Shaeree, flip box currently doesn't save the state because generally it's assumed that users won't want random back images showing in their collection (we had it this way a long time ago but it was rather annoying). Perhaps we should add an option for it though.

    Yeah, that doesn't really seem like the intended use for 'Flip Box'... Maybe create some kind of option to choose which 'front' you want from the list of images? That would work too.
